Bangkok: Sweaty and Steamy

Good things about Bangkok:
- Thai Massage - $4 an hour = amazing. We enjoyed being turned into a pretzel and stepped on, plus it was extra funny to watch a petite Thai woman man-handle Matt.
- Tuk Tuks - for $3 you can go about anywhere in a crazy motorcycle/car cross-breed. It's crazy, jostling, but really fun. Bonus if yours has disco lights.
- Wats - incredible temples of gold, mirror, tile, Buddha images, and basically super shiny sensory overload.
- Food - You've all had Thai food - but here it's cheaper.
- Markets are everywhere, with every possible thing you can imagine (who wants knock-offs?)
- The crazy "brewery" we went to last night where the entertainment was different singers belting out American tunes dubbed over in Thai. The people were going crazy, dancing, and yes, even vomiting on the table afterwards (don't worry, a waitress was right there to hold a bag for the poor birthday girl). All in all, highly entertaining.

Not so good things about Bangkok:
- The nasty, steamy, thick toxic stew you breathe in every day. It feels like I've smoked for years.
- Getting ripped off. We've have to be constantly on our guard. Now that we can see it coming, it's become rather amusing...

SO I guess that means Bangkok has been a positive experience. We'll be back a few times, but for tomorrow, we are heading to Khao Yai National Park...
