Mochi, comfy beds and a dead lizard…
It took almost 20 hours in the air, but…
WE MADE IT TO THAILAND!!!
Somehow I managed to get us a hotel room here in Bangkok without a desk… so I’m sitting cross legged on a tiny red couch right now writing this while Marcus, Morgan and Artie are outside having a swim. We arrived here yesterday and indulged in a super long sleep so that we could all feel “human” again after the trip here. Unfortunately we neglected to get any real “food” to eat when we woke up, so we had to satisfy our 2 am hunger pangs with the mochi (sweet and gummy filled rice cakes) that we picked up in the Taipei airport. Comfy beds, mochi and a good sleep can cure pretty much anything… even finding a dead lizard squished to the closet door…
Morgan, Artie and I walked to the 7-11 this morning to get some coffee and other essentials while Marcus worked with an early morning client. I can’t quite describe the gentle bubbling of bliss that I felt walking down the alley way, while Morgan lead the way and Artie chatted away his thoughts and observations… jumping over puddles, counting street dogs and trying to categorize the barrage of smells that we encountered. I’m looking forward to experiencing more of Bangkok over the next few days through their eyes.
