Like sand through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives in Asia. But with all our recent travel we're going out strong, so with only one weekend left we decided to pack it up and head to one of our favorite cities in the region: Bangkok.
The purpose of our trip is primarily food-based. We love Thai food and particularly a good bowl of Tom Yum Goong, so we've been patrolling the city's well known restaurants in search of our final fix. We only arrived yesterday afternoon but have already managed 4 bowls, all at established hotel restaurants like the Mandarin and the Peninsula. Tomorrow we plan to go a bit more local.
Big day today as we hit up the National Palace, did some shopping and even managed to squeeze in a wet and wild sunset khlong boat ride on the Chao Phraya river that left us all soaked like we were getting off the log ride at Great America, but we were laughing all the way. Ingrid also made a local friend today with whom she really clicked. More posts to follow.

Gorgeous pics. Get your fill, I'd be surprised if you find that true taste quite the same back in the States!
