Go to Krabi/Phi-Phi (both are islands) if you get a chance. It's where 'The Beach' was filmed. Amazing islands, although they were just starting to get touristy when I was there in '04. Chiang Mai is fun for the backpacker/hash scene. Phuket is one of my favorite places on the planet. Rented a Suzuki Samurai and tooled all over the island. I wonder what it's like after the tsunami. Also beware of the 'chiki-chiki' (named for the sound) massage parlors (one has to find the right place that's all). Bangkok is a lot of fun to explore on the 'tuk-tuk' (motor-tricycle taxi). Find a good driver and you can arrange for him to come back on different days for a daily rate, if you find a younger guy who is into his machine (and he likes you) he might take you to where the street races are at night as mine did. No cameras allowed, but an awesome experience!
