We Landed in Bangkok at around 9:00PM (7:00AM Saturday in Colorado) and have already had some great realizations. First, big cities smell a little different and big cities in SE Asia smell really different. Not bad just different. Okay, sometimes it just pain stinks, but it is not overbearing. Our Taxi ride from the airport took about 30 minutes and cost less than $6.00. Shortly after arriving at the apartment, I realized that Skype has a kind of Dr. Who effect. It can make tiny spaces look MUCH larger than they are in reality. Picture a dorm room with really nice amenities, like marble floors and a nice sized walk-in showers, but still just over 450 Sq Ft. Tiny, but very affordable at just over $300.00 a month.
I can not wait to see the city in the daylight. hope you all do not get tired of photos and stories. Just remember I'm not trying rub it in, I'm trying motivate you to get you asses over here. Cheap, friendly and exotic, what else are you looking for in a vacation destinantion? And thats the city, wait till you hear about the beaches.

7-11's every 50 yds??? You are far too generous.... look on the other side of the road too. It is something that still amazes me. Great blog sir, I am still searching for an employment opportunity so that I can move to BKK. One day I hope, one day......
