Coconut Water
2 November 2024, Thailand ⋅ ☁️ 88 °F
We ended up going to a little cafe that was right next to the hotel because we couldn’t find anything else nearby to eat. Kathy wanted to give this coconut water drink a try. She always likes to tryBaca lagi
It’s Not Good
2 November 2024, Thailand ⋅ ☁️ 88 °F
Kathy usually enjoys the local foods, wherever we go, but this was something that she didn’t care for. She was disappointed because I think that she really wanted to like this.
Have a Sip

Kathy’s reaction, upon drinking the coconut water, was very funny to me. It obviously wasn’t the sort of taste that she was expecting.
Fried Rice
2 November 2024, Thailand ⋅ ☀️ 88 °F
The food we ordered, fried rice, was very similar to what we get at home. I was surprised that the Thai people eat with forks and spoons, rather than chopsticks, especially when considering that weBaca lagi
It’s Good Food
2 November 2024, Thailand ⋅ ⛅ 88 °F
Kathy was very hungry and nearly finished the whole plate. I had a few forkfuls but I was a bit cautious. Sometimes food in foreign countries doesn’t agree with me and I didn’t want to start ourBaca lagi
Thirsty Boy

While Kathy and I ate the rice, Groot enjoyed the coconut water. We didn’t care for it but he loved it. He’ll eat or drink nearly anything!
Drinking it Anyway
2 November 2024, Thailand ⋅ ⛅ 86 °F
Kathy drank a lot of the coconut water even though she didn’t care for it. I told her to just leave it but she didn’t want to waste the money. To me, if you’re not going to enjoy it, just leaveBaca lagi
Back to the Hotel

It’s time for us to get back to the hotel for an orientation meeting of our tour group in the hotel lobby. I’m wondering how big the group is. I hope it’s not too many people. I prefer aBaca lagi
A Short Meeting
2 November 2024, Thailand ⋅ ☁️ 86 °F
The orientation meet was a bust the only people there were the tour guide, a guy named Woody who was from Australia, and ourselves. It was nice to meet them but I expected more people to show up. TheBaca lagi
On the Way

Our tour group was supposed to have dinner together but with so few of us, everyone figured why bother. Woody decided to visit Nana, Thailand’s red light district. He invited me to join him but IBaca lagi
Bangkok’s Night Market

This place seems very interesting. It’s a collection of shops and stalls selling everything from snacks to whole meals and from insects to massages. I decided that I’m going to be brave and tryBaca lagi
At the Night Market
2 November 2024, Thailand ⋅ ☁️ 86 °F
We’ve made it to Bangkok’s famous night market and while it doesn’t seem to be too crowded here on the outskirts but I’m sure it gets a lot busier as we get further into the center.
Prawns
2 November 2024, Thailand ⋅ ☁️ 86 °F
The prawns sure grow big over here! I’ve never tried prawns before and I’m wondering if I’d like it. I enjoy crab, shrimp and lobster and, being that this looks very similar to, I’d probablyBaca lagi
For Sale
2 November 2024, Thailand ⋅ ☁️ 86 °F
While most of the stalls here seem to sell food, there are some, like this, that look to be like tiny stores. This reminds me of a flea market.
Surprising Finds
2 November 2024, Thailand ⋅ ☁️ 86 °F
You really can find anything in Bangkok’s Night Market, as this selection of sex toys makes very clear! I jokingly offered to get one for Kathy but she declined. We were both very surprised to seeBaca lagi
Who’s Hungry?
2 November 2024, Thailand ⋅ ☁️ 86 °F
I’d like to get something to eat here but I’m not sure what I want yet. I think the best idea would be to see as much of this place as we can and then making a more informed decision as to what weBaca lagi
Tea Time

Kathy was in the mood for some of the Thai style tea and was surprised by how many different varieties there were. The seller had her sample several different kinds to make sure she would get the kindBaca lagi
Bananas
2 November 2024, Thailand ⋅ ☁️ 84 °F
I’d like to get something to eat at the night market but bananas is too common. I can eat those anytime back home. I’m looking for something a bit more unique.
Making Roti
2 November 2024, Thailand ⋅ 🌩️ 84 °F
I think that I’ll probably end up trying roti, a popular snack in Thailand. It’s kind of like a crepe and stuffed with a variety of different things. I’m now looking for the best stall to get it.
Roti
2 November 2024, Thailand ⋅ ☁️ 84 °F
The most popular type of roti seems to be made with Nutella and bananas. That’s definitely the type I’m going to try. I wonder how much the taste varies between the different stalls. I’m goingBaca lagi
Squid on a Stick
2 November 2024, Thailand ⋅ 🌩️ 84 °F
Although the rest of our family enjoys squid, especially calamari, I never really developed a taste for it. It’s just too gummy and rubbery for me to eat. I feel like no matter how much I chew it,Baca lagi
Fried Foods
2 November 2024, Thailand ⋅ 🌩️ 84 °F
Aside from the squid, we saw so many varieties of fried foods. Although I could recognize most of them, there were some that I couldn’t. Most of it looked quite tasty though.
Cooking
2 November 2024, Thailand ⋅ ☁️ 84 °F
This place seems to be making full meals rather than just snacks. I’m hungry but not really hungry enough to eat a full meal.
More Prawns
2 November 2024, Thailand ⋅ ☁️ 84 °F
I’m seeing prawns for sale in so many places here. I never knew that these are so popular here. We have them in New York City also but they are not as common. The size of these things areBaca lagi
Fried Insects

Now this is something very different. I can’t get food like this at home. I know that I said I’m ready to try something new but am I brave enough to actually eat bugs?
