Wheels on the Bus

On Monday night, we walked with Russell and Laura to a restaurant called O2. We wished we'd have discovered the place earlier because it had excellent food and a great atmosphere. We sat in a loft area on pillows on the floor with short tables in front of us. After dinner, we said goodbye to the Brits who are spending the next few months traveling around the world. I am jealous! Tuesday was a travel day with a ferry and a bus back to Bangkok. We went to our usual places on Tuesday night--the Indian restaurant to smoke the water pipe (we tried rose-flavored tobacco) and then Lava nightclub for dancing. It's amazing how quickly you can become accustomed to a place. Of course, we know only a small part of Bangkok. Today (Wednesday) we met Peter, one of our professors from the University of British Columbia, for lunch. He happens to be here on business at the same time the rest of us are here, so it was a small UBC reunion in Bangkok. In only a few short hours, I'm off to the airport and bound for New York.
