Bangkok (THAILAND)

Preparing for Burma

Today was a preparatory day for tomorrow's departure for Myanmar. We will be spending 11 days in the country, and since there are no ATMs or credit cards in Myanmar we have to bring all our money with us in crisp US bills. We decided to use conservative estimates of how much we would spend because neither of us wanted to be stranded in a place like Myanmar. Once we had money our money sorted out, we ate dinner and drank beer along the Khao San road before calling it a night. We will leave at 4am tomorrow morning for the airport.
