I’m still having trouble just plowing through, and even thinking about plowing through my photos from my trip to Thailand. So more of those will have to wait. It’s largely a task of cross referencing my photos with my notes. Anyways.
In my notes, I made a number of unconnected “Notes” on things I saw or experienced traveling to and from and in Thailand. Here are some of my notes from my journey to Thailand.
Note I – There is a giant sign (billboard sized) in the yard of a house right outside Narita airport that reads “DOWN WITH NARITA AIRPORT”. Narita is bordered by an astounding number of maze like tall metal walls.
Note II – The maintenance crews at Narita have access to a ton of extra wide Pocari Sweat machines. You can get a massage at Narita, and you can rent a room with a shower.
Note III – There is no difference between a United flight and a All Nippon Airlnes flight operated by United.
Note IV – Even though I had a two hour layover at Narita, had I dallied for a moment, I would have missed my connecting flight. Transferring from one terminal building to another takes far longer than is convenient.
Note IV – (while flying to Thailand, from Narita) Young people are the same everywhere. My teenage neighbors managed to cross their Thai-Japanese language barrier through the use of their iPods, their limited command of English and Post-it notes. Everybody likes Dir En Grey – the second time I’ve heard them mentioned today.
