Woke up hungover :-( went to greenhouse for breakfast and headed back out to mbk (shopping centre). Long wander around, just window shopping for me although sophie bought some stuff, back for a bit of r&r. Headed out for final meal in Bkk, and last tour of ksrd, Cj and sky are back in town as well and potentially gunna meet up with us later. Had a great time here, but definitely ready to move on to Vietnam, me and sophie are very excited to get some sand und...

6 am wake up, and picked up at 7:15, drove to Damnoen Saduak floating market. Wandered up and had breakfast (pad Thai of course). Soph had a picture with a slow loris, and we went onto a paddle boat (wooden canoe thing) which took us up the market, it's was amazing & chaotic, beautiful town with waterways instead of roads.

Early(ish) start to see grand palace, but when we arrived found out it was for Thai Buddhists only in the morning, so wandered for an hour or two. Incredibly hot day with sun out, back in hotel for a cool down dip. Headed out for lunch and third attempt at the grand palace, tuktuk driver took us for free, but we had to visit his sponsor (a tailor - the second time we'd been to that tailor!!). Managed to get into the GP, very beautiful buildings - see the photo al...

Took the boat bus to grand palace, but stupidly was wearing shorts and sleeveless tops, so will go back tomorrow in the appropriate attire! Had very nice lunch in a crowded market, then went back on the boat to Chinatown, explored lots of narrow streets with very few westerners around. Lots of strange looking (an...

Ate pad thai #2, was delicious :-) Went to the giant Buddha, and into travel agency (tuktuk drivers insistence) talked potential plans for next month, but not doing it through the agency because I hate the hard sell, and committing would mean a loss of independence. But gave lots of good ideas for the next month. Going to the shopping mall for a gopro, then back for a nap (not much sleep last night) Went out for food and a few drinks, very nice bar with koi pond ...
