Final blog for our final day of travelling!! First thing we went over to the tourist area. We got a taxi to the pier, and after realising we were about to be conned, we made our way to the real pier and got a very cheap boat up the river to the Grand Palace. As soon as we got off the boat we were being hassled about going into the palace and we decided to leave it and head back to it later.

We were intending on catching the 7am train to Bangkok but after much thought we decided not to! It meant that we would have been in Bangkok to early to check in to the hotel, we wouldn't get breakfast and we'd have to get up early!
