Friday, July 16th (in Thailand)
Good morning! The sun is shining here in Bangkok and we have just finished breakfast. Yesterday was a full day of market shopping and vendor bargaining. After dinner we took a cab down to Pat Pong to walk through the famous night market and red light district. This was my first exposure to the very popular Thai brothel. Although we did not participate, we were able to look inside to see about 50 girls standing on stage in skimpy bikinis waiting for old creepy white men to select them.
Today we are going to see some of the temples and wander around town. Tonight will be our last night here and then we are going to take a train down to the islands. I cant wait for the white sand beaches and clear blue ocean water. Love and miss everyone back home!! Mom, we are going to ship a box of goodies today so be looking out for that!
Lots of Love,
A
Must have been really sad seeing the brothels. I hate the idea that thousands and thousands of women are part of that forced slavery. How sad.
