Personal Legend

Hi everyone and welcome to my travel blog. The title, "Personal Legend" was inspired by the book The Alchemist authored by Paulo Coelho. Hopefully it can somewhat serve as inspiration to all of those who are considering "checking out" for a while or taking a trip to find their own Personal Legend. I am creating this to not only keep in touch with everyone but to also keep people current during my "Walkabout". I will attempt to update it every week and a half (or so) with new pictures ( and some commentary). If anyone is interested in meeting up with me along the journey or has any suggestions of some "can't miss" destinations, just drop me a note.

Sorry it took a while to put together but I wanted it properly populated upon rollout.

Enjoy.

Bangkok & Chiang Mai

Howdy Y'all,

Thanksgiving is only a week or so away; time sure flies.  Wishing you and your family all the best.  A few pictures of Bangkok and Chiang Mai ( a smaller City to the North of Bangkok).  To be quite honest my first stop in Asia was quite the culture shock; loud, crowded, odd smells and a lot of food (among other things) sold on the street.  Anyway, I am adjusting okay now and actually headed to Phucket (just couldn't resist typing that) tomorrow for some beach time.  Enjoy.

Pad Thai Dish I made during a cooking class: 1 of the 4 dishes we made.  It's simple quick and easy to make.  I even received a cookbook after class.
