the following is a short draft of things we might want to do / see together
- me arriving in bangkok on thursday 12th early morning
- early check in at the hotel to drop off luggage and catch up with some sleep
- getting a first impression of the city by driving the tuk tuk in the afternoon
- gaining some insights on the city's nightlife after refreshing at the hotel
- getting up late on friday 13th
- doing some more exploring through the city and getting maybe a fresh haircut
- gathering information on local tours and connections
- picking up a beatiful girl at the airport in the afternoon
- having dinner back to back some drinks with the lady
- saturday is resereved for basic sightseeing in bangkok

maybe we can even catch the Chatuchak Weekend Market ...
the rest of the programm is still pretty unclear and the following collection should be seen as a working draft of my first brain storming / internet research
- it would be nice to get to the northern part of thailand with its rain forests and historic locations like http://wikitravel.org/en/Chiang_Mai still not sure if its worth it ... especially considering its a days journey by train and that i had my share of temples already in india
a compromise in regards of that historic stuff would be going to Ayutthaya which is only two hours to go by train ... best thing about it YOU CAN ACTUALLY RIDE ELEPHANTS THERE !!!1!!
another must see location is probably Kanchanaburi with the River Kwai Bridge and the Tiger Temple
found also some packaged tours starting from bangkok, too bad there isn't one for both, elephants AND tigers though ... will look for more offers when in town ...
anyway, main reason for going to thailand are still the stunning beaches and water activities
some links in regards of this
