Pre trip meeting #3

On December 10, we learned a lot of information about Thailand from a Thai woman named Cholthanee Koerojna.  She covered so much information in her overview of Thailand that I will spread the information out over several posts.

Greeting (wai):  the traditional greeting is made by putting your hands together in front of your face and bending forward.  The more respect you want to show the person, the further forward you bend.

When greeting a monk or the kings, the bowing is more extreme.
