Hello from Bangkok! Last Wednesday, I left San Francisco for Tokyo, and then headed on to Thailand. I have lots to say about Asia, but I'm on limited time at the Internet cafe so, for now, a quick hello...
Tomorrow evening, my friends and I will board an overnight train to Chaing Mai -- our guide tells us it will be about a 13-hour trip. After a day and a night in Chaing Mai, we'll head into the hills north of the city to visit a number of hilltribes. We'll also ride elephants and raft down a river on bamboo (no, I'm not kidding). Wish me luck... this is definitely going to be an adventure!
I'll be back in Bangkok around 11/23 or 11/24 -- I can't remember exactly when -- so I'll write more about Tokyo and Thailand then. I will say that I'm really enjoying Asia so far, and the people here are ridiculously nice. We're having a great time! Over and out, for now.

Elephants and bamboo rafting bonanzas! My dear, I am so jealous. That sounds like such an adventure. I really look forward to seeing pictures of it all.
Have some pad see ew for me, and have a ball!
Hi, Heather! It sounds like you're having a wonderful time on your travels. What an adventure! We're thinking of you and hoping all is well. Your mom told us that you'll be taking a detour, pehaps to avoid the tumult at the Bangkok airport, if I remember correctly.... Hope everything goes smoothly and that you're having a good time.
Happy Thanksgiving! Safe journey home.
Love,
Cousin *Liza*
