"The worst thing about being a tourist is having other tourists recognize you as a tourist." ~Russell Baker
Well, on a lighter note....since I can't be in the south doing good samaritan work....guess I can be a tourist again!!! In one day, Sunday, I rode a train, long-tail boat, tuk tuk, 2 motorcycles, taxi and the subway. I was pretty impressed with my adventure. I walked across the bridge over the river Kwai and learned about its tragic history. I found out I can eat just about anything as long as I didn't see where it came from ( i.e. swimming in a bucket of strange juices on the sidewalk next to the preparer's dirty bare feet) I further solidified that my sense of direction is impeccable. And continued to demonstrate that my comprehension for(of) this language will never be. Oh, and the King of Thailand has a glass eye!
