The trip was a great mix of sites and activities, and we felt like we really got to see a lot of Thailand. We especially enjoyed spending time with my college roommate Josh and his fiancée, Amy. Some other, more obscure, highlights from the trip:
- Turns out we don’t get tired of Thai food; we ate it for pretty much every lunch and dinner and were still wanting it when we left.
- We enjoyed hanging out with people our own size. Okay, yeah, we were still probably shorter than the average Thai… but not that much shorter!
- We heard Thai versions of "Country Roads" not once, but twice during our stay at the beach. The Mountaineer pride was almost too much to handle.
- I read two whole books during this trip. Yes, for most people, this is normal vacation fare, but I don’t think I’ve read an extracurricular book in around 5 years, so this was quite an accomplishment; we literally celebrated.
