Met the guys for breakfast and headed into the city. First stop Kohsam Road (don't think I've spelt that right..) Generally got accosted by taxi drivers before looking round the markets. Funny, you go to the other side of the world & there's still people selling Banksy prints on a t-shirt!

We stopped to decide what next and a really lovely Thai lady asked if we were lost - she then proceeded to tell us what we should go see & haggled a tuk tuk for us! Driving around Bangkok is essentially a free for all & being in a tuk tuk was quite an experience! Loved it though. We went to see a couple of Buddahs, including one of the tallest in the city at Wat Indraviharn. Really liked it there, will include some photos.

Next we intended to go to one of the big parks but got a little lost, instead wound up at the zoo. Went in but didn't really bother seeing any animals, just nice to get out of the heat. So so humid. Went on the train ride though!

Just at the hotel ahead of meeting my group for Northen trip this evening. Think we're all heading for dinner..
