Ok so this is a trip to ride elephants and go shopping not a trip to shop for elephants:)
My daughter AKA Twinkle Bug has always loved elephants and shopping so this trip will cover both along with seeing Thailand for the first time.
The photos shown are just stock pictures from the hotels along our route. I will update this page with some of our own photos and keep a journal along the way.

Day 4- Bangkok

Well it is day 4 of our trip and so far we have mostly just travelled. Had a great time shopping in SF and Tay loved first class seats...glad I saved all those miles it sure made the long trip enjoyable. Probably ate way too much on the flights.

Got into the Marriott in Bangkok at about midnight local time. Got up early and we are off on tour in about an hour. I am struck with how pleasant the Thai people are. They say it is the land of smiles and indeed that is the case. I will try to add a couple of photos now but will take some today and load them tomorrow.

Is New Years and we don't have any definite plans as of yet...maybe the boat on the river to see the fireworks is the best option. We will see what Tay wants to do.Image

Looks like you had a great time. Was this a tour type or did you venture out on your own?

Do you think 14 days is enough time to really enjoy Thailand. What time of the year did you go?
