Bye Bye Bangkok





For our last day in Bangkok we visited the Jim Thompson House. Francis fell in love with the decor and is musing about divesting of our current possessions to redo the Y-2 crib Jim Thompson-Thai style.

After some mango and sticky rice and street pad thai we waddled over to see a lady-boy show at the Mambo. The Mambo retains 2 gorgeous lady-boys, a dozen mediocre ones, and a handful of simple queens to play the "boy" parts. The show was geared primarily for a Japanese audience. However, we did get a little taste of Destiny's Child. (I was not ready for that jelly.)

We're thrilled to be in Ayuthaya. The lodging is just $9/night and meals are running about $6 for the two of us. The rain is keeping us in, but I can't complain about having the time to read and write and surf the nets to check out what my li'l LiLo is up to lately.
