bangkok 2 friday

Work in the day, no photos there, and nothing much really, except that half way through the afternoon the cramps set in and I had no choice but to retreat to the hotel and recover. Feeling sick in Bangkok was not great, having cramps were worse. Ponstan was a life saver, did you know that they were available at any convenience store in Bangkok? The patent must have run out. Man, I was happily cruising on Ponstan.

Suan Lum night bazaar was a hive of activities, from ferris wheel rides to shopping to incredible food. The boyscout and I had some to drink and were off shopping.

It had a big tentage and girls, tightly clad in their beer-girl outfits came round and ordered with you, turn left you are greeting by the smell of fried chicken, turn right and you see Basil Pork rice.

So many shops, too many repeated ones. Excellent nightspot—and toilets there are clean.


We winded down the night by going on the Ferris Wheel, I wish I had a picture of the entire thing—but for now you’ll just have to see the ones we took while we were in it. It was breath-taking, Bangkok’s lights and roads from wayyy up there.




Our first of many tuktuk rides. I love the sound of “lady, tuk tuk?” I love tuktuks, and if I had my way—or if the boyscout hadn’t insisted that tuktuks only at night, because the jam in the day means pollution and no fresh air—it would have been my only mode of travel.
