Thursday, January 12.... Ordinary average day.

Hello all and welcome to your Thursday coverage of Traveling With Me!

So this day ended up not being what I had in mind for my day, so I really didn't do a whole lot. I made an attempt again to get to the Floating Market, but my taxi driver didn't understand what I was asking ~ Ended up on a long ride to nowhere other than back to my hotel. Regardless, I did take a lot of pictures... Many of which will be boring, but it is what I experienced and you are along for the trip. 

The evening did get better... My friend did end up getting out of the hospital, so I paid for both of us to get a one hour massage, and then it was seafood for dinner. That pretty much sums it up for my uneventful day ~ I had to be up to get ready to head out for Chiang Mai on Friday.

Street Vendor making me some breakfast.

Breakfast ~ Egg, Chicken, and Rice.

A shrine outside one of the buildings I passed.

Food Cart ~ I think there is rice wrapped in there.

Lots of things on a stick!

Some water I passed along my way.

This place sells the shrines that people put outside their homes and businesses. 

A view of the city from my wonderful taxi ride to nowhere.

Another building I passed.

And yet another one.

Huge TV screens at the large intersections!

A crazy big intersection ~ Traffic every direction!

You will see a lot of police directing traffic.

The Siam Society ~ Don't ask ~ The picture was due to the fact that there was a Geocache attached to the backside of the sign...  :)

A wild lamp I spotted out in front of a little bar.

This lady has a big juicer and will make you juice from just about anything fruit or vegetable. Great prices too! 

This guy is a Crepe Artist!

Looks pretty tasty!

This guy was making some kind of little pancake things.

Lots of meat on a stick around these parts ~ Very good and cheap.

This woman has a variety ~ This is where my lunch came from today.

They set these clothing shops up on the sidewalk every night ~ great deals here on clothing!

Another shot of the clothes.

A sign for a little bar around the corner from my hotel.

That is it for today folks.... Time to do some packing, and get ready for another airplane ride Friday. Headed out to the Chiang Mai area where the fun and adventure really begins ~ You wont want to miss what is coming up over the next ten days!

Zip Lines, Tigers, and Elephants ~ OH MY!!!
