I made it to Bangkok! My trip has finally begun! I'm excited to travel at my own pace and really get a chance to explore and see things! Bangkok is a busy city and I still don't feel like I'm on holiday yet. It hasn't sunk in that I no longer have a job nor a permanent place to live. I am thinking after about 10 or 15 days it might hit me.
I had a great sendoff in Seoul! Lots of people came out for the going away party and I had some friends over the night before I left. I really have enjoyed my time in Seoul, but I am happy to be exploring. But, I'm gonna miss you guys!! =o)
Alexis made it to Bangkok about a half a day after Adam, Morgan and I did. Our travel party is complete. We are staying in a cheap but chill hostel on Khao san Road. The amotsphere is very touristy/backpacker/party! I'm not sure I like it too much, but I think it is an ok place to transition into a new culture. After a day here, though, I'm ready to get into a more traditional setting!
Today we went to Wat Po to see the "reclining Buddha." The architecture was beautiful! Bangkok is a mix of modern and traditional, which has been interesting. We will travel to a few other areas in Bangkok to explore tomorrow. By Saturday we all hope to be heading south to hit the beach!
Hope all is well! I will post pics as soon as I can.
