Already beat the jet lag by staying up until 10:30pm on the night we arrived. Woke up and walked 11 miles around Sathon (where we are staying) and Chinatown before heading back for an afternoon nap. It's not humid at all, but the highs this week are all 85-90. Post-nap we headed to nearby Lumphini Park where a festival "Discovering Thainess" (for tourists, but seemed to be almost entirely Thai people) was going on. It had different displays for each Thai province with traditional music and dance.
The people are so incredibly nice.
