Hi All,

Local Food in Bangkok

The day we went out in Bangkok to see all the temples and palaces, a
family friend of Naiem's was nice enough to take us around and show us
the sights. He also took us to an 'authentic' food place for lunch.
This place was pretty hidden and we would have never found it
otherwise. I was a bit nervous but was willing to try anything.

This is what the place looked like from the outside.

Cheap

Just an example. We bought all these things at 7-11 today.

- 2 22oz beers
- 2 1L waters
- 3 Red Bull (red bull was invented here so they are extra strong)

The total was 150THB which translates to about $5 USD. Haha. It's ridiculous.

Sights in Bangkok

So yesterday we went out and saw a bunch of the "things to see" in
Bangkok. We are only here for 2 days so we had to cram a lot of things
into one day, especially since we were pretty jet lagged (especially
the guys from the US). We went to Wat Po and the Royal Palace. These
places were pretty amazing and unlike anything I have ever seen
before...

Here are a few pictures to give you an idea

Welcome to Thailand

Sunday we arrived in Thailand. The pin on the map is the place we are
staying in Bangkok. I am 12 hours time difference from New Jersey so I
am basically on the otherside of the world. I met up with the guys and
we are gonna see some sights.

I will try and post things as much as possible but Internet and free
time are hard to come by at the same time.

More to come

Books?

So my parents think I need to read more.... they have thought so since I was born

I can't remember the last book I read..... possibly in High School where I was forced to read... The point is I do not recall the last time I went out, bought a book, and read it. I probably don't recall because its NEVER happened

As much as I would like to read, I never seemed to have the time or attention for it. Luckily for Mom and Dad, I am living by myself in a foreign country for 2 months, and as much as I am trying to keep myself busy, I still stumble on a bunch of ME time.

So I have been reading for the last two days. I didn't want to post this because its only been a few days and if I tell all of you about it and fail, you will all know, but I think I am gonna finish this one.

I have been reading 'Moneyball'. I always thought the book would be interesting and I really liked the movie. So here I am.
