Living Dangerously

You can call me crazy but on our way back from Pattaya to Bangkok, I decided to ride in the back of a pick up truck of one of the grad Thai students. In it was also another friend of mine. This is the view from where I was sitting. We were inhaling exhaust from the cars (not fun), and the heat was so unbearable that we were both dripping wet. This is how some Thai people live and how people in other third world countries live. Not something I want to repeat again.

Al regresar a Bangkok despues de nuestro viaje a Pattaya me fui en la parte de atras de un pick up tal y como lo hacen miles de personas alrededor del mundo. El calor y el humo de los carros era tan insoportable que por un momento me arrepenti, pero era una experiencia que queria revivir. Debo decir que tuve suficiente con esta sola vez.

Esa imagen me recuerda de Santa Rosa, y las tremendas calores. Pero, aun en esa calor, estoy segura que disfruto el paseo y la vista de paisajes.
