24 hours, 1 boat, 1 bus, 3 planes and swollen feet...Bangkok

Hey hey!

I'm finally back from my trip to Thailand and I had a blast, I even rode an elephant! It was so much fun finding bargains, negotiating prices and just enjoying the food and culture. I had so much fun I took over 800 pics of my friends and I. It was worth  every hour spent on a plane to get there.

One of my main reasons for going over there, besides learning about a different culture, was to gain some insight into the fashion and lifestyle of the Thai people. Thai people are very fashion forward, especially when it comes to accessories. The country besides tourism is the number one distributor of jewelry such as gold and silver. Additionally, they export rubies, and sapphires and have a phletora of jewelry stores throughout the country. I felt like I was in a candy shop. I was uable to take pictures inside the stores since they do not allow pictures, didn't get what that was about, but I did make some purchases and will take pics and post on the site.

Thailand is also known for its beautiful temples and the grand palace, the former residence of the King. I was able to visit most of the temples and the infamous buddha head in the tree. I posted a few pics of my experience but will be posting pics of my accessory finds and all the food I ate in a few.
