Bangkok Safe

After a long, but fairly pleasant flight and a small run-in with some Korean immigration authorities I've arrived in Thailand. Got in late last night Thai-time and just went straight to my hotel to unpack. Then headed out down my street and found this little alleyway where they had all sorts of stalls for a snack and a coupe of beers. I relaxed there and people-watched. It was quite the busy little alley. My favorite person was this drunken Brit who seemed to know the restaurant owner, and was repeating over and over, "Manny Paquio, pound-for-pound, simply the best." He did this over and over and over, and...

I completely agreed with his estimation of the top pound-for-pound boxer, I just don't know if the stall staff shard his excitement.

Today I've gotta get my ticket for Koh Tao. It's an overnight bus and I have a few hours to kill so I'm about to head out and find the bus company office and then go find the most intresting thing I can to eat.
