Everything went very spoothly on the way over. I actually think that travelling 17 hrs is easier than a short trip. I got about 6hrs of 3x2hr naps. The plane had plenty of leg room and the meals were very good. The group feels like a great group of people. We all laugh a great deal, but why would we not - yoga and thai massage folks. While there were four people to a seat row on the plane, there was lots of leg room. I did the no jet leg homeopathic and I am here at 11pm Thai time at the hotel internet. I will have a swim before bed and then get ready for my first real day in Thailand. Tonight we went to street markets. I have decided prior to my travel that I would honor the veggie meal only when possible and not at the expense of the experience. I went with Beth and did lots of different curry. I even had squid which was like eating and old sock.. but with the right hot stuff.. it was great.
The airport is magnificent and has everything you could want. The streets are crowded and busy. Tomorrow I will go to the big Vespa shop on the street. If you can think it.. they have it.
I am very excited and more comfortable about my decision to venture this way. Until the next post when I will hopefully be more familiar with the key board and internet connection.
bye for now
