So our journey began with a 4 hr drive to LAX, 1 hr of waiting to check in and drop off our checked bag, 30 min of going through security, 45 of waiting to get on the plane, 15 hour flight, 1 hour of going through security again in China, 40 min wait for 2 overpriced iced mochas (which they didn’t quite get right), 3 hour wait for the next flight, 2 hr and 40 min flight, 20 min going through customs, 5 min to get our bag, and last another 5 min for the Thai TSA to scan our checked bag on more time before finally setting foot on official Thai soil.
Totally worth it . Even though we were up for about 33 hrs only getting a few hours sleep on the plane would do again in a heartbeat but maybe next time take business or first class.
My second cousins picked us up and showed us a nice overview of the area. Had a good iced mocha at a local coffee shop then an excellent dinner at an organic farm place where they grow a lot of veggies right there on the premise.
A great start to the visit.
