Chatuchak Market

They have bubble tea everywhere and I LOVE it :)

They also have a lot of corn milk....I haven't quite worked up the courage to try it yet

Girl Scouts!

Eating lunch at Chatuchak market in Bangkok 

    Today View took us to Chatuchak Market! It was so overwhelming that I forgot to take any pictures while there but it is the largest outdoor market in the world! They had everything that you could imagine. Tierra and I had a lot of fun browsing the stalls and bargaining with the sellers. Although they were persistent with trying to get you to buy stuff it was always a satisfying feeling when you knew that you had snagged a great deal. To get their from the apartments we took the bus and the sky train. While waiting for the sky train I started eating a granola bar which is apparently a big no-no. One time somebody put a bomb in a trashcan near this area, so they got rid of all the trashcans. Since there aren't any trashcans eating and drinking is prohibited. At least that is what I got out of it.

This lady bought a tiny monkey at the Chatuchak market

Even though it is cute, this monkey is an example of illegal exotic animal trafficking.

We spotted one of the "small crocodiles" aka monitor lizards at our university.

Thai's have a very thin ideal body image. 

This often results in dangerous eating disorders
