It Begins in Bangkok!

Well we made it t our bed and breakfast last night by 1:30am after a couple flights and 5 rice meals :) Our flight from Chicago to Seoul was actually very entertaining and very pleasant despite the 12 hour duration. The flight attendants on Korean Air all have their hair in perfect buns with perfect bangs, not a hair out of place - I don't know how they do it. On that same flight Dylan and I inherited a Lao grandmother whom we have now named Nana. She was the third person (in the isle seat) in our row of three. Rather shy at first, with only small giggles coming from her direction, she turned out to be quite a character. Unsatisfied with any beverage or meal she chose from the flight attendants cart or tray, she would take it upon herself to sample Dylan's instead and every time she preferred his choice and therefor would claim it as her own - yet keep it on his tray table for safe keeping. In return she would clean our tray tables for us and diligently tap the butts of the flight attendants as they passed in order to get their attention to collect our used cups and napkins. She would also give us her unwanted juices, extra desserts, and peanut packets (you see, the peanuts were too hard for her to eat with her brittle teeth.) So all in all we made a pretty good team! I will miss Nana.

Second flight from Seoul to Bangkok was a drowsy blur but ended with a happy landing in Bangkok. After the mazes of immigration and baggage claim we took a taxi to our quaint, clean, and comfortable Bed and Breakfast. Its owned by this really cool man named Charn - really nice and very helpful! So anyway, woke up this morning to a great breakfast of papaya, toast, and cassava balls and now we're ready to meet up with Stef and Mason. Can't wait to explore the city!
