Made it in!

Saturday, 15 December 2007

After a 56-hour flight (Laura insists it was only 14.5) we made it to Hong Kong last night, then transferred to Bangkok...boring details like going thru immigration (fighting the queue with a huge tour group) and sleeping on the airport couches for a couple of hours will be omitted...
Anyway, we lost a day in travel...left L.A. at 11:30 A.m. on Dec 13 and did not actually make it to our hotel in Bangkok til 2 AM on Saturday, the 15th!

The place we are staying at is great, a new guest house lodging place set up in the non-touristy section. Slept like a rock and had a great breakfast of rice soup, Chinese cakes, soy milk and coffee strong enough to wake the dead...Now we are off to the riverfront area where we will visit the Grand Palace, some wats, the university before we come back here for our hour-long massage! Tonight we do a riverfront tour of some sort and more adventures we will figure out on the way.

I will try to upload some photos tomorrow...hope you all are doing well...guess it is still Friday for you folk as I post this...you guys are just behind the times here!
