Sa-wat-dii from Bangkok, Thailand
We arrived in Bangkok on Thursday 1st February at 10:30am, therefore it's only are 2nd day into Thailand. To be quite honest neither I or Al are that keen on Bangkok, however it is only early days I guess. I think sometimes to compare things to more recent experiences and Bangkok is filthy compared to Singapore. We just need to go into each country with an open mind and accept it for what it is.
We have gone from being the minority to the majority with there being so many tourist (backpackers mostly) in and around Bangkok. We are currently located in Banglumpoo, Bangkok, which is renowned for tourists. To me it's like Spain with a slightly oriental feel!. We feel slightly disorientated by it all with the main thing to do being getting on the beer as early as possible.
Alanna adores the markets. We have yet to purchase anything but I'm sure that that will change as most of you know what Al is like. We will certainly need to ship them back home though as we can't afford to load our backpacks any more. Were heading to the famous 'Chatuchak Weekend Market' tomorrow before we depart for Phuket on the overnight coach later that evening. It'll be a 14hr coach journey, which will be tough I'm sure but it'll be worth it I hope.
Manged to try the famous Thai Green Curry last night (Incl Seafood) and was not impressed at all. Everying is very water based, which Neither Alanna or I are overly keen on. Oh well we'll keep trying as we may just have ate to the wrong place. Indian food still our favourite by far!.
Photo's are slowly but surely being added on so watch this space.
That's all guys, until next time
