Shopping, shopping and more shopping

Hello from Bangkok!

We arrived here late on the 14th. Had our first taste of Khao San road... and it reminds me alot of Bourbon Street in New Orleans or the Strip in Las Vegas. Lots of neon lights, bars, street vendors, and children. Why people bring their small children, still pushing them in strollers to such places, I will never understand. But it was pretty crazy. We managed to find a small but clean place about a block off Khao San, for cheap, which we have been very thankful for.

Friday and Saturday were both spent walking and shopping. It is great. We have each had to buy an extra bag (or maybe 2 after we get through today) just to make sure everything makes it home. That's what you get when you give 2 girls 3 free days at the end of a trip...

We leave for home tomorrow morning. Pictures are still to come, and we're preparing a couple of top 10 lists. Even though this incredible trip is coming to an end, there is still lots to come, so keep checking back.

People in Calgary, we'll see you in a few. Saskatoon, I'm home on the 19th, but we'll definitely be in need of some down time.
