The second, and final, part of my treasured trip

Okay, I know I planned to create a day-by-day, illustrated postings on my Bangkok trip. But if you're really close with me, you know how my mind changes as often as....I don't know. Just very often.



I'm not good with words.



In a nutshell, the trip lasted six days and one-day transit in KL. Yes, we visited the temples, the Chaopraya river, all the cheap night bazaars, ate mango sticky rice, bought fake Havianas, stayed in Khao San Road where all the tourists and backpackers blended in, almost went broke due to CIMB Niaga's stupidity to NOT be connected with their Thailand branches, made friends with Morrocan and American backpackers, sang 'The Scientist' out loud with hundred other backpackers in Khao San, went to the zoo, played with a baby elephant, got lost in a secluded village, interacted with Thai people with words that didnt have any meaning, took pictures with cafe musicians, rushed my friend to the hospital due to a minor accident,...

You know, the usual stuff you do when you go abroad.

I don't know if you read this, you three crazy ladies, but you are by far my best travel partners and I cannot thank you enough for the week-full laughter we shared. I know that anyone can go to Bangkok. Anyone can also go to there with their best friends; it's not a huge deal. But to go with three bestfriends with so many different personalities that never fails to crack me up until my stomach literally hurts and with the list of 'normal' activities I stated earlier, I know that this trip was one of a kind. At least for me.

(We did it, you guys, we really did get on that plane after all !!!! I still get misty everytime I look at our pictures. LET'S DO IT AGAIN! =P)
