Hello Thailand!

This will be quick because I don't really have any stories yet for Thailand. I got in late last night. It is now morning and I haven't even left the guest house yet. Nothing too eventful coming over besides the lady behind me on the plane falling and grabbing my sleeping head in front of her because thinking it was the seat. Yah, well it wasn't. I was about to open up a can until I looked back and realized it was a little 50+ year old Chinese lady. So I just let that one slide.

The other thing I have noticed so far, besides the humidity and noticable cockroach population, is that the cabbies here are not afraid to ask for directions. Once again my cab drive got lost trying to find the hostel last night. Except this time instead of driving around for 45 minutes, stopping and then pointing to the curb, the cab driver actually stopped and asked a couple of guys standing on the street. To top it off I paid about half what I was told the cab would cost.

I also am happy to find that for the first time since entering China, I am able to access my blog and actually see some of your comments! Super stoked about that. As a reminder, China is not a "free-speech" country, so blogspot.com is banned from anyone using the internet in the country. Therefore, I could post but never see the site. This morning was the first I saw, and was pleased to find some people are actually reading it! And I'd like to give a big shout out to my peeps at AAA and all my homies back home. "Woot Woot!"

Alright team, I'm off to see the city, the wonderful city-Bangkok. I'll talk with you later.

One last thing, if ever you would like to contact me without having your message broadcasted to my many...MANY friends my email address is this: heydpt@hotmail.com. I am also on MSN Messenger, and Yahoo (screen name: jellowdaddy. I don't know it just sounded cool at the time.) But remember when it's 10 am there, it's midnight here. Peace. ~D
