I've been in Thailand for quite awhile already. So long in fact that my 30-day tourist visa ran out the other day. Thankfully Alan mentioned it to me the day before it was due, so I made last minute plans to leave the country and come back with a fresh stamp in my passport. After visiting a travel office, the cheapest and fastest way to do this was to simply pay 600 baht, take a 6 hour bus ride... Read Full Entry

Loungin at the pool

Ahhh what a day.

Ko Tao

Da beach

Fellow backpackers

Trying to find a place to stay.

I don't know what this was

But I think I should have gone.

We found Mexican food

And I like margaritas.

Live music

At Choppers Bar

Pancake stand

Chocolate and banana pancakes are absolutely delicious.

Black coffee for breakfast

Need to wake up.

Back in Bangkok

Ahhh, Kho San Road

McD's

Ronald shows some respect.

Scorpions!

They broke off the poison stinger before we ate them.

Finger lickin' good, ya'll

Actually, they were a bit too mushy inside.

Muy Thai boxing

Me and Bryan went to check out some Thai kickboxing.

Hardcore

I would seriously not want to mess with these guys.

Cambodian paperwork

With the 2 Dutchies.

Too many questions

And we can't understand the answers.

Your trip gets better and better. I love the elephant riding, how the hell do they get you on it? We are in our new house in Nanuet painting and unpacking while you are having the time of your life. We miss you!

I am so jealous
Hey Big Bri!!! Love the tattoo, check out your guns in that picture!!! (Hungry Jack sent it to me). That Thai meal you cooked must have been out of control. Pad Thai is sooo delicious. Those elephants were so cute, you are so lucky. How many people can say they rode an elephant in the Thai jungle? Glad you got through the border hassle without any problems- you are tough New Yorker!!! DR was awesome. Guess where we're going for a long weekend? LBI!! "Crab people, crab people". Miss you!!!
