Thailand (Bangkok, Krabi, Ko Phi Phi)

---

Bangkok. Then on to southwest Thailand for some saltwater. The Thai people are wonderfully warm and the culture is peaceful (despite what you've been reading in the news). They are always looking to have fun. I enjoyed every experience here down to getting ripped off by my taxi driver coming from the airport. i paid about 3 times the normal fare (it was 2am and i couldn't really see a difference between $20 and $7 in Thai Baht). I generously tipped the guy who was politely ripping me off, and he giggled and then shook my hand three times and gave me a hug. Welcome to Thailand.

Hey . . .
Rudy, Sounds like you are having a great experience. I was in Thailand with Matt in 2007 and we had a great time. Hopefully you get to spend some time diving/snorkling off of the Thai islands. We went to Ko Tao and some other Ko's ( . . . which i am pretty sure means AWESOME). Just be careful . . . there are some really aggressive women over there with almost man-like features . . . i just don't want you to miss out! Miss you buddy.
