Due to the protests, we couldn't fly out of Bangkok, so we switched our departure flight to leave from Phuket, the biggest southern island. It was a shame to leave the beach and waves and bungalows, and the excellent Pad Thai I had there.
Monica caught a bus up to Bangkok, and then to a meditation retreat about 6 hours outside the city for 10 days. I and Jeff and Alana caught a bus to Phuket, then flew out from Phuket to Seoul, South Korea. I took a bus tour in Seoul of the temples around the island of Incheon, which is outside the city of Seoul.
Then from Seoul, we stayed up for 24 hours flying to Los Angeles, Denver, and, for me, St. Louis.
Time to sleep.
