[GOOD MORNING FROM BANGKOK.]

Goodmorning everyone! Its 8AM here and we are about to start our first day exploring Bangkok! It has been quite an adventure to get here so we are a bit jet lagged but so excited to start our day. We got into Bangkok at 11PM last night and to our hotel by about 12:30AM. The place we are staying for the next 3 days is called the Tawana Hotel. Its a beautiful hotel with marble and gold everywhere! We ate breakfast this morning at the hotel and there were tons of different options. They had the "western" breakfast but we tried to eat the Thai options that they had. We had Dim Sum, which is sort of like a dumpling, and some rice noodles. It was strange to me to be eating what I would consider lunch or dinner for breakfast but it was so delicious! There were tons of pastries as well (I think for the Americans) so we had a brownie, of course because I needed chocolate. Today we are traveling to a flower market, visiting our first temple, and eating a home cooked lunch in a local families home. No pictures yet but I will take some today and get them up hopefully tonight!
