Day 1
We've arrived it's gone 6pm n it's pitch black?!? Seriously we left Manchester Airport 8pm 27/12 n landed in Bangkok 6pm 28/12?! We've lost a day! We opted for a taxi that cost THB500 the train or bus is much cheaper but we're shattered so we splashed out!
While we were queuing for the taxi a random man asked if we wanted to come with him in his car. I didn't hear but before I could finish my sentence to ask what he wanted Lee shouted he's a fake it's a scam... Cringe, he's tired! Made me laugh when the man had walked away, seriously Lee sounded like he had Tourette's!
It's really easy to get a taxi from the airport. There's signs everywhere and the airport staff control it all. They estimate your fee so there's no surprises :)
Right so we got to our hotel, iresidence Silom, after a 40 min taxi drive, to be told there's a pest problem in our room so they are going to take us to another hotel... The receptionist got in her car and said ' I will drop you off and pick you up tomorrow' this hotel is down a few side streets so we've opted out of going for a look around. We're gonna catch up on our sleep instead then get picked up in the morning! Oh yeah Lee nipped the shop to get our tea and came back with microwave meals?!? Mine was amazing it blew my tongue out my mouth! (Dan P and Clare it was your type of dish) it took me about 4 go's!
I'm still none the wiser about this roof top pool, bar and restaurant for new year at our pest riddled 'posh' hotel?!? I asked but the staff spoke little English so couldn't even confirm if there was a pool on the roof :/
I'm concerned this is suppose to be our luxury accommodation.... What's to come?!?
