Anyhoo, due to weird setbacks, I haven't made it to a tropical beach yet.
I recieved an email from a friend, and I thought I'd share my responses with you for edification purposes. You can probably guess what the questions were.
Things are pretty fun; I just switched to a cheaper room today, but it's pretty much as good. There is no TV though, and TV is what keeps the noises of the city at bay. Maybe I will sleep using my ipod, but I haven't gotten sleeping pills yet; it is harder than I thought.
I won't be able to really post pictures until I come back to Nippon, but my hair looks kind of like Iceman in the old movie "Topgun," especially since I also got a close shave.
Thai food is okay, but a little too watery, and it does not make for fun times in my digestive system. I actually ate in a "Japanese" restaurant last night.
Today, I want to see some animals. It may take some work to find a cab driver that knows the location of such things though; they are only interested in showing people the temples.
Clay, go visit jewelry places, Thai silver jewelry is pretty, you could get bracelets for all of your female relatives and send it to them in envelopes very inexpensive (hint hint) - actually a tour of a factory would be interesting if you like that kind of thing. Thailand is supposed to be very popular for jewelry.
ReplyDelete*thinks of Iceman's hair...* Yeah, that could work. ^-^ Glad to know that everything's going well. I demand pictures! We all really miss you back here. Everyone always asks me how you are and I've been so wrapped up in my life as of late that I now realize that I don't know, really. It'd be nice if you could drop me a line, doll. I do a lot better with e-mail than blogs anyway. :P Ah well, I wish you a very merry Christmas and a good new year...uh...whenever that occurs over there... I don't remember if Japan is different or not. *hugs*
