A quick hello from Shanti Lodge



Hey all...I finally made it to Bangkok after 24 straight of traveling.
It's ok that it was so long because it took me just about the whole flight to figure out what time it was when we left, how long the flight was, what the time change was, what time it will be when we land, what time it will be where we came from when we land and what time it was where we're going when we left! I think the answer was 12.

I have to admit, it's all taking some getting used to. I'm not sure whether the sun is rising or setting sometimes. But I didn't have to change my clock from Chicago time at all; it just says 6:30pm on Wednesday when it's actually 6:30 am on Thursday. HA! I have no idea what to do at daylight savings time.


So I'm staying at a sweet little hostel-type place in the Thewet neighborhood of northern Bangkok. It's really nice and clean. There's a vegetarian restaurant and most people here speak english. The best part is that it's covered with tropical plants! There are orchids in the showers....real ones. I hope to put pictures up soon!!!
