Saturday in Bangkok

I woke up early yesterday and climbed in the car with Joe and his family. First we dropped off Loma at his mothers's house, then we dropped off Nemo at stadium were his school was having a sports day function. After this we headed to the Chatichuk market, a street market they say is the largest in the world of its type. I bought a bunch of stuff for christmas presents and such. After the market we caught a Taxi to place to eat and ate thai food yet again. I then parted ways with Joe and Oil catching a subway back down to Sikumvit were I walked around for hours. While there I went to the famous MBK mall.

My biggest story of the day was when I was walking in front of the US Embassy. I took a picture of the front and immediately a security guard came out and started yelling no pictures in thai. Ok, so I showed him that I was going to delete it but the screen on the camera had a problem. I borrowed the camera from my mom and the touch screen on the back side of the camera already had two cracks in the screen, not my doing. So I am sitting there trying to delete the photo and as I press the delete option on the touch screen the screen cracks into dozens of cracks, I thought he was going to take my camera or my SD Card for a moment. Luckly I was able to advance the picture, say it was deleted and move. Note, dont take pictures in front of embassies ever!!!

Tonight Joe and I are catching a bus to Ching Mai were we will stay in his aunt's condo. This is the capital city of Thailand and is worth a visit. cheers.  Photos
