Arrived in Bangkok local time 07.30 after 14 hours of flying with Jet Airways. I had a quick changeover of planes in Mumbai which went smoothly.
My lovely lilac suitcase is now very dirty and I have no idea of what has happened to it in that short space of time. Oh well, at least it arrived on the carousel which is a bonus!!
I went to the public taxi rank at BKK airport and gave the driver instructions in Thai on how to get to the guest house. Khaosan Baan Thai is the name of the guest house and it is quite hard to find so emailing me the directions in Thai to give to the driver was a good move on their part!! I wish the car had rear seatbelts though as I wasn't so keen on his driving!!
Once I was shown my little room I put my ear plugs in and managed to get a few hours sleep even though they are doing building work just outside my bedroom window!!!
It's quite hot but not unbearable as they have provided me with a fan. It is a traditional thai house with 10 small rooms and shared bathroom and toilet facilities. I have not eaten anything yet as too tired but I have had a look through the excursion folder and may choose to do an organised trip on Thursday or Friday.
Anyway, I'm going to sort my bags out now and think about where I will eat tonight. I'm very close to the famous Khaosan road so that might be the place.
Will update you all in a few days time so Bye for now!!
