The Land of Crazy Shit

is what they should have named this place. If you don't want rice with your chicken and vegetables, or your fish balls they look at you like you have a third eyeball right in the center of your forehead.
Im not usually a fan of white rice, but i've learned to like it these last 5 days, because if you dont eat your rice, the pea sized piece of fish and vegetable they gave you wont last you longer than 5 minutes.
And then then they'll be looking at you like you have 4 eye balls because you want MORE food.

yesterday we went to Pattaya, otherwise known as Sin City, an extremely large northern beach town i believe was formed specifically for large european men between the ages of 45 and 70. I can officially say i've seen more hookers than any Amercian boy has. ever. every street, every corner, every bar. and that basically concludes Pattaya.

today was cooler, we went to the JJ market in Bangkok. I've never seen so many things for sale. 5 acres of shit. Thai Silk, tableware,baskets, bags, jewelry, and squirrels. yes. squirrels. tucked in between rows or shirts and western handbags was a small thai lady selling furry little squirrels. They had thin ropes tied around their necks and on to a cage. they all sat, kind of miserable looking. It was sad and cute all at the same time. we left a little early because Zach is now sick. the joys of traveling.

Tomorrow we check out and head to a northern beach town, i keep forgetting the names here. ill document it when i hear it again.
