Dear Bloggers:
Arrived back in Bangkok yesterday after a 3 hour bus ride. We tood pictures of young men on horses last night as they road along the beach. After arriving back in Bangkok, we took a boat to the Oriental Hotel (http://www.mandarinoriental.com/Bangkok/) and had a wonderful Thai lunch. We were then given the assignment for the day of : "Sanuk", which means to go have fun. A colleague and myself went to Soi Cowboy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soi_Cowboy and Papong (http://patpongnightlife.com/)...both are considered red light districts in Bangkok. Lots of opportunity to take interesting pictures. No one had the stomach for the Thai Boxing Matches! We also were given the assignment of a self portrait...how we wake up in the morning.
Tomorrow I will hook up with a guide named Tong for several days. We will be going to the Grand Palace, the Klongs, and several shrines as I try to take in all I can before boarding the plan for the US at 10:30 Friday night.
I am off to class so will add my photographic posts when I return to this update this entry. I will also add some photos of the incredible food we have been eating during the trip. Please check back later today for some final photos and a wrap up.
Thanks, Linda
