Bangkok, Thailand (September 2011)

I hate spicy food but I swear that THAI food really grows on you. Anyway, this was my third trip to Bangkok, but with different people come different experiences. First trip, suppressed shopping. Second trip, excessive shopping. Third trip, wise shopping. Thailand - Land of Smiles.
