RHK-Bon Voyage-Scouting
 
Bob and Karen-have a great trip beginning on Friday. Hopefully, Bob will get online and provide contemporaneous (Bob, that means at the same time) reports of their travels. I'm sure all the hotel managers and restaurant employees have been put on high alert.

It is so kind of you both to volunteer to precede Beth and me into Asia making sure it is safe for Mr. and Mrs. Panda. When we meet up with you in BKK on 11/24/06, I suspect all of the tourist industry will welcome the relief. I'm really looking forward to helping you interface with the Marriott pool staff when I appear in my Speedo. Do they sell thongs in Thailand?

I hope that Bob & Karen have a great trip--I'm sure that they will.

I'm looking forward to a comprehensive trip report.

Andy--the thought of you in a thong is putting me off my meal at the NEXT GTG.

And I appreciate the 4 of you paving the way for my February trip. Jeane and I plan to avoid any of your regular haunts - ROS, Marriott, etc. as I am sure their staffs will not yet have recovered by then.

Have a wonderful time Bob, Karen, Andy and Beth!

bon voyage bob and karen. take good notes in india, as i'm still planning on going there in the next couple of years.

will be catching up with you guys and the pandas and all the cool guys at the gtg in dec.

thanks very much for the good wishes....we are really looking forward to this trip and to being able to report back on new activities and restaurants, as well as our first taste of india...

especially looking forward to the bkk GTG's and mini gtg's we have set up during this trip...

we will alert the thai army to the arrival of the great panda!!! perhaps this will be more a happening than the recent coup....

Bob & Karen

Nameste. Have a wonderful time. I'm leaving Monday for Vietnam, Siem Reap and Bangkok. Looking forward to it after getting all those good vibes from Fodorites.

My sole goal for this trip is to get Bob banned from the Marriott. How sweet would that be?

Bob, have a great trip thanks for all the help. Will be wandering BKK 11/22-28. It is our first trip hope we learn to navigate and enjoy BKK as much as all of you!

Have a great trip. Am looking forward to your take on India.

evangelina Oct 26th, 2006 11:30 AM

My husband and I will be heading to Thailand Dec 9-13th. I'm fairly new to this board, but have got wonderful information from all of you. Anybody else there at this time?

TracyB Oct 26th, 2006 11:56 AM

Hope u have a great trip..U will love India, can't wait to read all of your stories...

Guenmai Oct 26th, 2006 12:03 PM

Bob and Karen have a great time.Too bad I can't be in Bangkok when you're there. I'll miss you by a few weeks, I think.
Bob...I just got your e-mail at my personal e-mail address and I'm still laughing hysterically. You are truly ill. It's good you have Karen to look after you. Have fun in India...Maybe I'll put it back on my list. It seems to go on and off of my list depending on what National Geographic special comes on the tube. Happy Travels!

Gpanda Oct 26th, 2006 12:04 PM

Evangelina-the best way to determine who is going to be in BKK then is to start a separate post. Don't worry about being duplicative, many do it often. Bob for instance is the master of repetitive repeating rapidly.

laurieco Oct 26th, 2006 01:21 PM

Have a great time in India and Thailand. Looking forward to hearing all about it. Try not to embarrass Karen too much.

marya_ Oct 26th, 2006 02:28 PM

Bon voyage to Bob and Karen! It is so cold and gloomy here in Boston, with a big storm forecast for the weekend -- such a perfect time to get away. I look forward to reading about your wonderful adventures. Enjoy!

Kathie Oct 26th, 2006 02:36 PM

Have a great time! We look forward to seeing you in Bangkok!

lovesadventure Oct 26th, 2006 03:08 PM

Happy Travels!

Bob, before you leave (and if you have a chance) would you email me your BKK restaurant list? sf_princess at hotmail dot com.

If not, we'll look forward to the updated list upon your return!

CFW Oct 26th, 2006 04:05 PM

Bob & Karen, Have a great trip, and keep us posted. We will all really look forward to your report on India and new adventures in BKK! Are you going anywhere else in Thailand this trip or just BKK?

Mirasia Oct 26th, 2006 04:22 PM

Bob,
Thanks for all the great advice. Looking forward to meeting you!
Have a wonderful trip!
Linda

Guenmai Oct 26th, 2006 04:28 PM

Kathie....Oh, my goodness. You're actually going to get to meet Bob? You'd better brace yourself...He's a handful. Smiles. Happy Travels!
