After more than 21 hours of flying time from West Palm Beach, Florida via Korean Airlines we touched down in Bangkok about midnight on Saturday. Exhausted and jet lagged we were still glad to arrive in the "Land of Smiles." Particularly happy that all our connecting flights went well and we arrived along with our luggage and golf clubs in tact! I had arranged for a driver with a van to pick us up as I knew that we and all our luggage would not fit in those small Toyota taxis, so after clearing Customs and Immigration I was relieved to see a Thai smile holding a piece of cardboard with my name on it. Upon exiting the airport there was no doubt that we had arrived...the heat hits you right away, and the feel and smell of the air is distinctive to say the least. Yes...we had arrived!
