Thailand (August 1-13, 2001)

On a whim, I booked a trip to Thailand.

I left Phoenix around 6 am on August 1st for my flight to Thailand.

I flew to San Francisco then changed planes in Tokyo before arriving in Bangkok around 10 pm on August 2.

My itinerary was to spend about a 1.5 days in Bangkok (leave Aug 4) then fly to Chiang Mai. From there, I would take a tour of northern Thailand and stay in Ban Tha Ton before flying to Phuket the afternoon ofAug 8.

I planned to stay in Phuket for 4 nights, before flying back to Bangkok and spending the night in an airport hotel. The final morning (Aug 13), I scheduled an early flight home, with plane changes in Hong Kong and Los Angeles.
