Day 3, Bangkok



The team woke up late today after a late night (4 or 5 in the AM) meandering the streets, singing national anthems, debating the best country in the world, and singing 90's songs off key and way too loud.
After some fantastic street food we made our way to the Grand Palace.







That night about 10 people from the hostel decided to see the Muay Thai fights, we packed 5-6 tourists per cab and split our $1 fare accordingly. The fights start at 6 and end at 12, the fighters are 60- 100lb men absolutely destroying each other. We thought it was important to sit with the locals to get the most out of the experience. The locals wouldn't let us bet (probably because we couldnt understand the hand signals, a mixture of sign language and shaking your hands like mad) so the Canadians started betting beers.
