the chang gang -- part 15
chang gang -- part 15 today is thanksgiving, and we?e flying back to bangkok. even though i bought an amazing amount of crap at the temples, i was able to fit it all into my bags. we all checked out on time, and the bus was at the curb waiting for us. on the way to the airport we noticed a war museum and promised we would have a look next time in town.
with the awe-inspiring time at angkor wat and the pumpkin soup, there was little doubt we would be back some day. checking in at the siem reap airport was painless, and we were told to wait in the lounge for our flight. we noticed a private jet on the tarmac and wondered if it could be mick jagger?. whenever there was a little activity around the plane, farangs would jump up to have a look. tiggerbkk was having a great time making fun of a farang that hadn? bathed in a few days, but mikem33607 looked pretty concerned. mike was afraid if there was a stinky guy on the flight, the odds were pretty good that he would be seated next to him. it? just hard to believe people have enough money to travel, but they don? understand soap and deodorants?/p>
luckily for us (and especially mikem33607) the stinky guy wasn? on our short flight back to bangkok. it was a pleasant enough flight back, but antman was disappointed he didn? get another tuna sandwich.
tig had arranged for his friend at the nana hotel to pick us up in a limo, but the driver ended up parking somewhere weird, and we had to walk a ways to get to the car. it was a nice thought on tig? part, but i would have rather gotten a limo from the car desk as it would have save a lot of time (and walking). los angeles part time jobs studentsI have noticed quite a lot of openings for freelance writers video producers and guides with About.com.
