Thailand!!

Instead of huddling around in the cold weather, Aaron and I took off for 16 days in glorious Thailand!! As expected, it totally rocked! For entertainment purposes only, let's do a bit of compare n contrast:




90% Buddhist, 90% Shinto, Japan is 99% Japanese. The Japanese like their baths boiling hot, their food cold, their temples earthtone, and their Emperor is no longer a god.

95% Buddhist, Thailand is 75% ethnic Thai. The Thai like their showers cold, their food damn hot n spicy, their temples ornate, and their King is so beloved he might as well be a god.
