effortlessly slept for twelve hours.
A plane took us to the Bangkok airport, a shuttle took us to the bus
terminal, a bus took us to the Trat bus station, a truck taxi took us
to BanJaiDee Guest House. It was a little more difficult to find our
way than when we were just following airport signs, but we made it.
The guesthouse is perfectly adequate, small room with just a bed, two
shared bathroom/showers down the hall. Hot water is a wonderful thing.
After getting a room, we ventured out into the city to look around. We
picked up a map on our way out, but translating what we saw on the map
to what we saw in real life proved more than challenging. We found our
way to a series of markets selling anything and everything. My
favorite were the underwear stalls with whole tables full of bras. The
food was overwhelming though so we just wandered until we couldn't
think straight anymore. Mind you we still hadn't slept horizontally at
this point. So home we went, hungry but ready to shower and sleep.
Robert rigged our mosquito net, even though we have yet to see a bug.
We turned on our rotating fan and slid into our silk travel sheets on
the most wonderfully firm mattress you can imagine. We are gearing up
to go out now for food and more exploring.
Maybe I will have something story-worthy for you tonight.
