SO we are finally here, after what seems like forever!
As opposed to heathrow in london, the bangkok airport is beautiful. However, the 1 hour highway ride to our hotel wasn't. i don't know what expected. it became a whole lot more interesting when we actually got into the city, naturally. the driving wasn't nearly as insane as i was warned, but it seemed to rack landon's nerves a little.
my first impression of our hotel was a good one. i first saw this amazingly blue swimming pool by the entrance and restaurant and there were geckos crawling all over the ceilings as we had our first meal after unpacking. after the food, i went back upstairs and pretty much fell asleep the moment i hit the bed. i'm fairly certain i'm already with it as far as the time change in concerned.
the next morning , which is in fact TODAY, we woke up at about 7am. I went to bed at like, 8pm the night before. we came downstairs and had some breakfast and went out to get SIM cards for our cell phones, so we now have numbers! i feel like a temporary resident now =)
which reminds me, there was a lingering doubt that the time allowed in thailand was dropped from 1 month to 2 weeks. I was happy when we were stamped for a month. anyways... i'm kind of not into blogging at the moment so i'm going to go and find a bus ticket to koh lanta. google that and you'll see where i'll be in 2 days =)
