Hermes Bangkok...and other Thailand Tales

All, thanks again for letting me share. I would highly encourage anyone thinking about visiting Thailand to do so!

E...The Four Seasons Golden Triangle was just amazing...I hope to be so fortunate to have such a fabulous experience at another time at another place in the world!

GT...The Evelyne worked quite well for me as a tour/beach bag...I have to admit I was hesitant to use her in any setting where I expected crowds...she is a fantastic fit...but...the lack of an interior zip pocket gets to me a bit... I was actually more comfortable using Kelly if I needed to carry a wallet, passports, etc.

Cityofflight...Guests that we met at the tented camp also mentioned Krabi...they were off to that area after Chiang Mai...oh my...another option for future travels...

LaVan...Muhahahaha...Brussels scheduled for July 5-8...then...Paris...and anything goes...have the opportunity to travel for a week or two in Europe...
 
Here are a few more from Bangkok...

I had no idea there were so many tPFers in Thailand! Next time, we will have to meet at the Paragon... Such a wonderful country!
 
Also called "jack" fruit? No, but I thought it looked very interesting... I tend to stick to the tried and true pineapple and watermelon... Why does the watermelon taste so much better in Asia??? Oh...and I love pomelo! First tried it in Cambodia a few years ago and ate it regularly in Thailand...

SoCal: you are right that is a Jack Fruit - it's sweet not as stinky as the other -- durian
