Off to paradise...

Hey All,

Well after 5 interesting days is BKK, it is time to move on to more quiet and relaxing times.
Believe it or not, Bangkok can be a stressful place sometimes (I know, bitch-bitch-bitch).

After surviving various scams and constant haggling over prices, you actually haggle over everything except food. Went to a weekend market, man, I have never seen a market so huge. There are so many shops and everything is cheap. P.S. I will go back there in a few months and will mail a package full of stuff back home. We were interested in T-Shirts, so I got a university mascot t-shits, with a 'Fuck 'Em Bucky' motto, and Alex got a 'My daughter wears combat boots'. Ha? Yeah that's the point!

As well, Toronto looks like a small village when you compare it to Bangkok. The size of the city is really staggering. Traffic is an astounding achievement to comprehend! The drivers, hmm, I think EA Sports should create a video game named 'Driving in Bangkok in a tuk-tuk'. Every centimeter of space is fought for, but somehow there hardly are any accidents. Go figure, occasionally a dog gets hit, you hear about three of those a day.

Forget about monks chanting, they're to busy talking on cell phones, drinking pepsi and blasting music!

Ok, got to get ready for a nice 14 hour bus ride. Yikes, this should be fun, by the way it costs 5cnd dollars.

Adios Amigos.
