Currently I am sitting in the airport waiting to catch a plane to Phuket while watching the sun set on my final day in Bangkok. Since momma, papa, and baby Mire arrived in Thailand we have been running, going, moving non-stop. We’re having a great time and hopefully Phuket will give us all some well deserved beach time. Some highlights from the first leg of the vacation include:
- Jatujak market
- Massages where the masseuses hit on my dad and Dean– apparently Papa Mire looks like a great sugar daddy
- Visiting my school in Samroiyod
- Lunch with the teachers
- Khao Takiab– a wat in Hua Hin
- Playing with monkeys
- Elephant riding
- Sightseeing
- Dinner and a traditional Thai dancing show at the swankiest hotel in Bangkok
- Jungle/treetop ziplining–at one point in the rain
- Driving and walking through the Red Shirt protests
- Alice In Wonderland at the Imax– we bought the posh couch seats
- Khao San Road on St. Patrick’s Day
- Jewelry shopping
- Tons of Thai food
- Taxi price negotiating
- River taxi ride
- Tuk tuks– found out that we can all squeeze into one tuk tuk, quite impressive
