Here I am, trying to steal the sword from a statue at the Temple of the Reclining Buddha. I did not succeed, and the statue continued to look smug.
Here am I, reclining near the reclining Buddha. It's huge, and all it ever does is lay around, watch DVDs, and get its picture taken by tourists.
This is the nifty hotel the ship set us up in. I was very jazzed to discover, when I arrived, that some error they'd made before I arrived had made them decide to upgrade my room, which gave me an AMAZING view from the 18th floor... until I disvocered that Mallorie and Corinne's room had also been upgraded, and THEY got a BALCONY.
The above photo proves that Buddhists understand irony.
Safely back to the ship from Bangkok, I celbrate St. Patrick's Day with a Guinness and an "O Danny Boy" with the band. This is out of order - these photos are so frickin' hard to upload from here I can't be bothered to sort them as well.
Tuk tuks, tuk tuks, tuk tuks! Everywhere a tuk tuk! My experience in Sri Lanka did not put me off these wonderful, $1/hour transports... zipping through the insanity of Thai traffic would've been a pain without them.
A photo from my Nikon D70s (had to mention that again) on the aforementioned balcony with Mallorie and Corinne.
On our way to Bangkok.
Sunset, as seen from my window. Not my balcony - I didn't have one.
This is the second night market we went to. The first one was much more touristy and in the area that most of you will think of when you hear of Bangkok - the one with the...um... shows, and friendly lady/boys, etc... yeah. Bangkok is a smelly, smelly city, by the way.
Okay... more photos to come... on our way "back," generally speaking. Kuala Lampur tomorrow, Penang the day after... then India. gotta run...
