Couple of days on Khao San.

Khao San road a night or two later.Flu symptoms setting in...might be the hini! -; which, lately I'm figuring could be good thing.... So the big fear about the hini right now is not necessarily how deadly it is but more in how quickly and easily this thing spreads. Now, if I can get this thing before it mutates into a potentially more lethal version, maybe, just maybe, the immunities the I've created to fight off this previous strain might be able to prepare and mutate in their own right, readying themselves for battles to come... or I suppose some version of the opposite could be true.

Been touring Bangkok for the last couple of days - 4 to be exact. Yesterday went to the old capital of Thailand called Ayuttuya (I definitely spelled this wrong, but its pronounced I-U-T-ah). Largest sitting Buddha statue in the world, ancient temples, .... day before - long tail boat ride through back water canals of Bangkok, then caught the new Transformers movie. Day before walked Khao San area.

Today I did more of my traditional walk forever, get lost, walk another couple hours, get lost. Apparently I was quite entralled by this since I didn't decide to eat any food until around 8 pm.

Sawet called me today just as the engine of the Tuk-Tuk was heeving itself over the gear changes. Apparently the smaller your vehicle is the more liberties you take with traffic; and with only motor cycles higher on the chain of crazied traffic bees; it proved to be way too much for any type of communication with Sawet, considering I can barely understand him in the best of circumstances. I did however manage to gather that he'd call me back tomorrow, and something about him coming in on Saturday. Not sure whats suppose to happen then.

Whelp, 2 more days until my visa expires. I suppose I'll find myself in Laos one way or another in the next couple of days.
