Thailand Journal: Who Can it Be Now?
Oops, I forgot to post the rest of these, here they come!
April 14th, 2008 - I get a knock on my door @ 9am, not expecting anyone, I was just lounging in my room for a bit deciding what to do for the day. I popped open the door expecting it to be the guesthouse service offering to “fluff my pillow” but it was only Philipp.
He told me about being sick from the chicken that he ate with Meredith and I 2 nights prior but invited me to go to the silk farm with him. I was up for anything and he seemed like good company, at the least we could continue our talks about our love for Wieselberger!
We played good cop/bad cop with several tuk-tuk drivers to see who could get us there and back (about 15km) the cheapest.
In Cambodia, you bargain for everything and Philipp being a more seasoned traveler in SEA, he led the way. This would be the case the rest of the day. We ended up paying 4$ each which was half of the starting price. I completly forgot to mention that in Cambodia everything is in dollars, they only use their bills to fill in the gaps since 4000 riel = 1$. Basically their bills are used as coins.
….tired of typing, will continue tomorrow
