Bangkok (Nov. 16-18)

Bangkok City. Good to be back. No flood waters that I can see. The locals are frustrated that tourists have dried up (pun intended) in response to flood concerns. Can;t say I blame them.

I had a great exchange with a server in a resturant the other night. It went lke this:

Me: Is the veggie roll deep fried or is it raw?
Her: No
Me: No?
Her: Yes!

Classic. Although usually the Thai default word is 'yes'.
Had a great dinner the next day with Cherry, Patrick and their friend, Danish Thomas at Red Sky outdoors on the 53 floor of the Centara Grand. Braised beef ribs with garlic sauteed spinach. Very nice. The view was astounding.

Then a bit of last minute shopping and headed home. The trip to the airport was inexpensive (nearly free) but needlessly difficult (I chose to cary 4 bags on transit rather than take a taxi -lesson learned!).

Bye till next trip!
