Today was such a great day in Bangkok, we rushed off early to find our buddy Greg ewho had just arrived from the air port and to find a church to attend. we found Greg but no church so we decided to go explore Bangkok some more. our first destination was the Dasin Zoo we took a bus and got lost. while wondering around who knows where a funny old Thai guy directed us down a road and gave us a magazine with a horse on the cover on tonz of crazy numbers inside when we reached the end of the road we found this huge horse race track packed with hoards of thais. I along with everyone else couldn't of been happier to have stumbled upon such a rad sight we stayed for five races all won some money( like 400 baht) and by some i mean like 6 dollars american but none the less I felt like i won the lotery. we werer the only foreiners in the whole stadium and found that no one bothered us to buy stuff no one cared to talk to us seeing how no one could profit off our tourism. I could not be happier to be here right now, every where i look Im super amazed at the culture of this country along with all the travelers from all over the world. I already feel that a month and a half will go to fast. tommorow mornig we'll take a 14 hour trek to cambodia for a week or so going to ankor wat which is supose to be really fantastic. I'm still in shock that I'm here and am loving every moment of it!!!

Hello David- I just want you to note that I am the first to leave a comment. Did you tell Shawn what I told you to say? The three of you look great, well, except you. That one picture you do look a little goofy. I certainly hope you all are having a fabulous time!
