New Year's Eve In Bangkok

V and I flew in to Bangkok just in time to celebrate the New Year...we dined at Eat Me, an ex-pat type place with live jazz, then scooted off to Bed Supperclub to ring in the New Year...you can check the photos and a few vids here...

The Countdown at Bed! (I tried to video our kiss...)

Bed Supperclub (Dark, but you can hear what it's all about)

Happy New Years, All!
