Today we went to one of the Kings Palaces in Bangkok. HUGE gardens complete with a maze (thanks to PUC I do know the difference between mazes and labyrinths now, haha) It was my first time using public transportation actually, ever other time we've gone out to food we've just hiked and the mission has a car. We took a bus and hopped in the back of two trucks O.O at first I thought I was hitchhiking but it doesn't count because we actually paid 7 baht to do it…hahaha. 
We tried to go kayaking on the lake next to the palace but it wasn't allowed because of the thunderstorm, we met some people from South Africa that heard us playing UNO in the lobby while we were waiting (thinking it was going to clear up, which it never did).
We then also decided to wait until 5:00PM because Goi and Andrew had seen the Thai aerobics/dance class that took place in the gardens and wanted to watch again. SO much fun! It was interrupted at 6:00 however by the national anthem, kind of eerie because anyone that hears it STOPS in place and everything they were doing. Almost like M. Night Shamalan's "The Happening". I'm completely exhausted and over-exercised and need to catch up on my jet-lag so this is all for tonight folks :)
