Okay, I am leaving Bangkok in half an hour to go to some deserted islands in the south. it is good because Bangkok has been so hectic and I am really tired, but the beaches will be totally abandoned and very relaxed. Today we joined up with the tour officially and got a tour of Wat Po, a famous temple near here. it was pretty amazing and featured a reclining buddha that was over 50 feet tall and several hundred feet long, and covered in gold leaf. I took some pictures that I will post later. One really funny thing is that I am noticing how much being in Japan has changed me, because now that I am here and starting to decomperss I can do things that you would never do in Japan. Japan is a really uptight society overall. Oh wel, off to the beach for me!
