| Tofu salad for lunch. Fresh dill, crunchy seaweed, lovely fresh leaves. And an entire block of tofu? Uff. |

| Our guesthouse is easy walking distance to the river and a charming park. |

| I can't tell the difference between streets and alleys. |

My first day in Bangkok: padding about with Lissy, enjoying, smelling, tasting, watching, buying a garden of a pair of flowered pants. More Pad Thai than I could eat (for 60 baht = $1.80). A gleeful bag of papaya, eaten on a stick. Sunset at the river, a huge set of speakers playing music for the park-goers.
Seemingly requisite for travelers to tropical areas, studded with jet-lag: I became wide of eye and weak of knee and had to charge off to the loo. But a small price to pay for being in such a fabulous place. I'm loving Thailand so far.

Tofu?! I thought you said something about "proper food"...;-)
Tofu IS proper food! Although I can't say I've ever eaten a block of it on top of a salad...
Ross, haha! I did actually regret that tofu. Have been eating pad thai in quantities enough to negate all tofu, now, though. And papaya!
And just now the strongest coffee I've had in months. I'm buzzing.
Thanks for your comments Ross and Sylvia! Love hearing from you!
