The Great Baht Hunt

Today we went to the bank to pick up the Baht (Thai currency) that we ordered three days ago. We took a picture of some of the bills - we thought they were pretty. We got enough to cover the cab ride from the airport to Bangkok and the expenses for our first day there. After that we will cash some of our travelers cheques.

We sent an email to the guesthouse that we want to stay at in Bangkok to see if they have any openings for the 9th and 10th of November (fingers crossed). It's called the Shanti Lodge - here is the website : http://www.shantilodge.com/ Once you get to the website click on "Shanti Bangkok" and take a look around. Our friends (hi Christy and John!) stayed there when they went to Thailand and said it was great. Everything we've read about seems really cool. I just hope they have a vacancy for when we arrive. If not we will be in Bangkok again, we'll just reserve ahead of time.

We also added a few more pictures to our photo album, mostly of my family. If you like my sister's hat e-mail me - I can make you one for a modest price :) Peace and Love to you all!
