Khlong Toei, Thailand

The pool - not renovated (and possibly not cleaned!) since the 50s, but oh-so-refreshing in steaming Bangkok! Trying to do my 700-800 meters before breakfast each morning (especially hard since the pool length is only 17 mtrs!)

Another part of the lobby, one of the several reading nooks.

Some impressions from the Atlanta, our fantastic shabby-chic vintage hotel in Bangkok - not renovated since the 50s :) Here is the glorious lobby, where one actually has wi-fi (one of the few modern amenities).

The Nana Plaza, one of Bangkoks smaller red light districts... Curiously boring. We were having a beer while the working girls and their clients were filing in and out of the love hotel behind us and the ladies at 'Spankies' across the square flicked their whips... It's exactly as you would imagine it - just a lot less interesting.

After 5 weeks of Indonesia (it was great, but we really needed a change of scenery) we are now finally residing at the glorious Hotel Atlanta in Bangkok, which is like time travel right back to the 50s... more images to follow! Bangkok, baby! I have a feeling we could get stuck here for a while ;)
