Our trip to Cambodia was amazing, albeit brief, and thus we found ourselves at the Thai/Cambodia border soon after our Angkor Wat adventures. Another four hours of standing in a miserable line through immigration were ours to enjoy before making the bus and taxi ride back to Bangkok. Luckily we appreciate traveling and we like each other.
We slept off our long day of travel quickly and woke on Saturday morning before the sun to catch a tour bus to the famous floating markets just outside the city. Tour groups are not our thing, but we couldn't pass up the markets and a chance to ride the elephants.

| Alex was in love with these snakes. |

| Me, not so much. |

| We found ourselves in a huge bookshop with such a random collection; I had to snap a photo of the beloved book that my mother has had on her shelf since my birth. My mom is with me, even in Thailand, thanks to the Prescription for Nutritional Healing. | |
After a day of elephant rides, Thai iced tea and coffee, a run to the tailor to pick up Alex's new suit, and a bit to eat, we packed our bags and headed for 'home.' We arrived back to the frozen Seoul streets and shivered our way back to our little apartment, exhausted by happy. Thailand & Cambodia were good to us.
