Mother Daughter Adventure Chronicles VII: Bangkok or Bust! III

This brings me to my last Mother Daughter travel chronicles installment.  It was a wonderful time and I will always cherish the memories of this special trip.  I was very lucky to have my mom in Thailand for three weeks, and very grateful she was eager to do and see everything while on these adventures.  My mom is a wonderful lady full of spirit and energy.  I was so impressed with her delight in everything and willingness to try and do as much as she could with her time in Asia.  

Here are some photos from the our last evening together in Bangkok and the departure at the airport.  It was a tearful goodbye, but it had to come at some point.  Mom was heading back home on that long, trans-Atlantic flight, and I was just hopping past Malaysia and the Strait of Malacca for Singapore.

Bye Mom!  See you in about six months...

It was a great trip with mom and it was tough to say goodbye.  We shared many great memories, and I'm happy was able to help mom actualize a few dreams she had.  Asia is an incredible place, and it's never to late to get here and experience the life and times.
