Some Final Pics

Well, as much as it hurts, this is my final day in Thailand on this trip.  This evening will be the annual Christmas celebration for Young Leaders Group and as soon as it is over, I head to the airport.  I will add some photos from YLG when I get back to the States, but for now I will wrap up with some random photos of life in Thailand that didn't find a home in my other posts.  Thanks for sharing in these adventures with me.  I hope it has been interesting....

Upcountry version of a school bus.

Granted this load is just styrofoam boxes, but this is not photoshopped.  Huge loads on pickups are a very familiar sight here.

This is where the nickname comes from.  In the US, my nickname has been "C" for as long as I can remember.  Here, it quickly became Big C.  Thailand has no WalMart.  They have Big C.

My dinner last night.  Bpla-tu, or mackeral.  Steamed and served whole like this.  Delicious!

My beloved ba-mi, egg noodles served roadside throughout Thailand.  How I wish there were noodle vendors in the US!

Bridge going back into Bangkok.  Thanks for sharing my journeys with me!
