So, what to do with some days off? Act like tourist with our guest, remember, Amanda and Frank. Off to the Floating Market. I like to shop but this is a totally different experience. You grab one of the boats..and trust me there are many...and just ride along the river back and forth and SHOP till you drop or till you run out of Baht. I controlled myself though, which was not too easy. The only thing we bought was some sticky rice with mango which is irresistible, Amanda would agree and you all know Jeff never says "No" to food. You can buy souvenirs, clothes, food, vegetables, fruits and anything you could think of. This is the cool part, if you like something you see, just signal your boat driver, he maneuvers his way through, the owner of the shop gets his long stick with a hook on the end, grabs on to your boat and pulls you in...isn't that neat. But remember "keep all hands inside the boat at all times"...seriously!
Let the bargaining begin...
