Bangkok Notes

Bangkok Notes:
-I like saying hello to people in Thai. It's very easy to remember. It sounds like you're saying, "So what the crap".
-There was a discotheque above our room in the hotel, or at least it sounded like it. Loud bass shook the room, curiously only between 4-11 pm.
-Thais love their king, Rama IX. He's everywhere! In the cab, on street signs, on menus, at the temples, everywhere are posters of the king. We were told multiple times that the king is 84 years old and has ruled Thailand for 65 years. Thais believe their kings are reincarnations of the Hindu god Vishnu (which is a little confusing since Buddhism is the state religion).
