Cool Day
Wanted to go to the floating market south of Bangkok just to understand the canal system that was the main travel system for 800 years. What I ended up doing is playing catch with an elephant, (name kgankp, or gray Elvis, cause he swivels his hips) eating banana pancakes and yes an ant egg omelet. IT was fantastic. Ant eggs are like gamey roe, you add enough chillies and garlic and all is good.
I think I am headed up to the tigers early but who knows. Life is good and I have learned several things in the last 5 days.
1) My family and friends are everything to me. I love keeping my wife and friends in tune with what I am doing. Wish they were here!
2) Everything in Bangkok is a scam. But because it is so cheap I am not sure I mind. My American self wants what I want! BUT I am not in control, so I am trying to flow.
3) Bangkok drivers are WACK! (I learned that from young people!)
4) Life is very cheap outside of the US. There have been several times where my heart breaks.
5) Russian travlers will wear a speedo anywhere, including a British pub. They would not let me take a picture but it was lmao funny
