What a mental 24 hours travelling involving
1. 4 hour jeep ride
2. 10 hour train
3. 45 min taxi ride
4. 2.5 hr flight
5. 45 min taxi+ lots of waiting around and queuing
Luckily our Bangkok hotel is a palace. Perhaps anyone who's been to Bangkok would expect me to say how noisy, crazy and manic it is. Sorry to disappoint, but we found it to be clean, quiet and stress free. That's what 6 weeks in India does to you. We also found it to be very expensive by comparison.
We are only here for 2 nights before flying out to Hanoi (Vietnam) as you cant really fly from India direct. The area we are staying in is very seedy. Its very normal to see fat old white men walking hand in hand with young attractive thai ?girls. Its quite a shock coming from a country that forbids women to expose their shoulders to one where they can walk round almost naked and openly sell sex. Having said that, the area is safe and hassle free.
Spent our time here relaxing and booking onward hotels; at night we went out for beers and played Spot The Ladyboy....
