Bangkok, Thailand

Allison enjoying a beer at a thai resturant just off the skytrain. The sign said "Very Cheap, Very Good Thai Food" in english. It got our attention and was true to its word. Here we met some expats who now live in Bangkok. They had some good advice for traveling in Japan. They said we were lucky to find this local spot for food, they said it is the best place to eat on the street in Bangkok.




In this picture I was telling Al to hurry up and take the picture before this thing got any closer.


A couple Komono Dragons fighting over a snapping turtle beside a walking path. We got pretty close to these things and they didn't seem to mind @ all.s


Al and I at the a city park. The scenery was beautiful, and we saw a couple animals that we'd never seen in a city park before...



the Mae Nam Caho Phraya River held plenty of activity, including alot of longboats and feery rides.
