We're going going back back to Thailand Thailand
As I'm sitting in my cubicle wondering how much time I'll spend on espn and facebook today (probably 150+ minutes) and how much money that will cost the government (probably $575), I'm very excited to let everyone who still reads this blog (probably no one) that tomorrow I will board a Korean Air flight back to Phuket!
I only have about 10 days in Asia, but the plan calls for some serious bobcatting, a three day dive trip and as many activities that I'll have to declare on my next security clearance application as my body can handle. I'll try to put up a few posts and pictures, here are a few things to look forward to:
I only have about 10 days in Asia, but the plan calls for some serious bobcatting, a three day dive trip and as many activities that I'll have to declare on my next security clearance application as my body can handle. I'll try to put up a few posts and pictures, here are a few things to look forward to:
- Simultaneous excitement over the prices and disgust over the drop in the exchange rate. A Chang costs $1.15? Unacceptable. Now I'm only bringing back 3 liters of Sangsom (aka 'Blackout Sauce') instead of 4.
- Inconsistent comparisons between Khao Lak bars and DC bars. Which Thai bar will claim the coveted Brass Monkey comparison? Which will be the crowd favorite Hunan #1? Is there a single person who will get both the DC and KL references? (answer: no)
- Rantings about how tourists have ruined Khao Lak and how much better it was in the old days. Astute readers will note that I am now a tourist, however I will simply gloss over the irony.
