Alrighty I am officially in Bangkok! I'm so happy to be here after suffering from a quick bout of homesickness I'm ready to get started! I seriously can't believe I'm here and how much I've already done. I got a WONDERFUL foot massage for only 100 baht! (a little less than $5 for an hour of bliss!) I also attended a church this morning at a place called the International Christian Assembly. I went there with my new friend Angela. It was such a good experience...I think I've found my Thai church family! We are still waiting for 3 more girls to show up for DTS. All in all there will be 3 Americans, 1 Australian, 1 Indian, I New Zealander, and 3 Thais. Quite the group! Well, I thought I'd post a couple pictures just to show a few things I've seen so far... 
This is just a cool sign from the Sky Train, which is a bit like the amtrak but above ground.
Just a nice view of inner city Bangkok
The sign outside of the massage shop. Lists all of the massages and their prices.
And this little fella was here to greet me when I rolled into our room at 3:00 in the morning. These are everywhere and are super cute! Plus they eat misquitos so I just LOVE them!
It sounds like a great beginning and I'm excited just seeing your pictures. Hard to imagine you are really there.
ReplyDeleteI am amazed that you can read those noodle letters on the signs. thats my girl!!!
ReplyDeleteThat place looks amazing! I'm glad you are liking it so far. You better learn how they do those foot massages cuz when you get home, I think it'd be pretty awesome if you gave me one - lol. Take care of yourself kiddo and keep having a good time! We miss you but know you are doing to right thing there!
