"Pang! Pang!" -EXPENSIVE...My favourite Thai word to use to date. Every store i went to in Thailand, that word was a necessity to con the shop owners that i know a thing or two about Thai Language. However they always managed to see thru the lie right away and rip me off anyways. Shit heads! Interesting people i met during the trip. Lets see...the "tuk tuk" rider who looks like a print out of my cousin in law to which some point i thought they were twins separated in a fire or something, some beauty parlor girls i did my pedicure at -who unshamelessly begged my mom for tips and this waiter from somewhere rural where i wont go. It was 5 days of rush, rush, rush and more rush. BEWARE! Things were not as cheap as we thought it was. And since we are foreigners, the price just went up a fold. I love their food. Everything has chilli in it. I ate at their dirty roadside stalls but it was freakin delicious! WO hoo! And there was a night bazaar with carrot cake and squid eggs with a fantastic chilli sauce!!!! *Both Thumbs up* I still remember the delicious Penne Pasta in Tom Yum soup. That was heavenly. I will try to create a replica at home. Wish me luck.
I got upgraded to business class on the flight home. I think it must be my charm or my excellent pronounciation of KopKunka-Thank you in Thai- to the lady at the airport checking us in. WO HOO! I felt like one of the rich and famous! HA HA HA!
Will post the pictures of my trip soon. SOON!
