I did not see a monkey on a wire- Arrival Bangkok

End of Day 2/3- Arrived in Bangkok

Got on plane, got off plane, found luggage—I repeat- found luggage- all 150 pounds of it!  I am so relieved. I put luggage in luggage hold (after standing in the taxi line with all my luggage because I forgot this step) and started off to hotel to meet the rest of the group.  It is about 8:00pm. I read my packet over and could not find the address of the hotel so I asked at a booth and she said my driver would know.  Two hours later (it should have been a 30 minute drive) I arrive at my hotel.  I just want to ask, “Can’t you just call 411 or information and ask?  Don’t you have a dispatcher that can look it up for you?” I finally convince him to stop somewhere with WiFi and we look it up. I walk straight onto the hotel, meet my friend from San Francisco and head straight out to the street bar.  I cannot wait to take a picture of this for you.  It was a cut out VW beetle van with a fully stocked bar. So cool.   The Mai Tais were great and the conversation with some of my new teaching friends was better.  This is going to be good.
