prounounced “pooh-get” according to the reputable lonelyplanet.  phuketaboutit.

so we just did a quick 3 day jaunt through bangkok.  it’s good we did cambodia first, because otherwise we would’ve never seen the cambodian royal palace.  in a faux-SAT analogy: 

thai royal palace to cambodian royal palace is as mercedes to

a.) hyundai

b.) kia

c.) datsun (although i actually really like datsuns.  especially the ancient one parked next to me in the garage back home that is covered in dust and cat paw-prints and hasn’t been moved — except by brute force — since i moved into my apartment a year and a half ago)

d.) all of the above

the answer, obvee, is d.

the temples in bangkok totally blew away everything in phnom penh, but still didn’t compare to angkor wat.  again, obvee.  totally glitteratti with the shiny gold and sparkly glass plastered over every available surface.  we also got to check out the reclining buddha.  150 feet long.  each toe bigger than your head. 

so bangkok was fun.   and we got to live the life of luxury thanks to american express and hilton rewards.  and ted.  thanks ted.

now we’re in phuket for a night, since our flight was delayed and we missed the last ferry to ko phi phi.  there’s an absolutely ghetto fabulous hotel we’re staying in.  we forked over the extra ten bucks to get AC to go along with our shabby decor and twin beds.  

i have a little over a minute left on my internet.  which means, byebye.
