1st Day in Bangkok

Today was a much needed day of rest. We pigged out at the buffet breakfast & spent the rest of the day organizing/deleting pictures. At last count we had well over 4000 pics spread over our 2 phones & my camera. We’ve been falling behind in getting them organized. We walked to the major outdoor market area for dinner & a bit of shopping. Lots of merchants, including waiters/waitresses were wearing surgical masks. During dinner, we heard what we thought was a karaoke singer butchering an English song. Turns out the entire band, including the lead singer were wearing masks! Unreal!! Thailand has thousands of these convenience stores.... What are 7-11s Alex? You’re right! We walked about 1.5 kms to the market & passed eight 7/11s. I kid you not... Chiangmai had plenty of them too. Lots of night life & temples. 10 million citizens & tons of tourists here. A very poorly designed city, without adequate infrastructure. The best way to get around the waterfront area is by boat, for sure. Lots of traffic 24/7.Lue lisää
