Well today definitely has been an eventful first day in Bangkok!
In the morning we got the Thai version of the underground 'skyline' into the city centre where we attempted to find a market...instead we got conned into a couple of tuks tuks one of them taking us to a jewellery store so that he could earn his coupons for his petrol! In the market I am ashamed to say we all bought the typucal traveller pants (we have all been reformed and its only day two)- we also made our first attempts at barterring!
After that we attempted to go to a temple (cant remember its name) but it was closed so we went to another temple where hannah managed to offend a holy man by sitting cross legged in front of a buddha - apparently not protocol.
We then went to the Thai strip and had a couple of beers and a very traditiinal ham and cheese toastie and a burger , we are already tiring of thai food- its a lot of soup much to Beths disappointment!
Just got a taxi back to our hostel - I think we really need some sleep after all beibg jet lagged and up from 1am last night...
