Awesome hotel! Not expensive at all $100/nt, huge buffet breakfast, free spa massage. Defo going back! |

Elephant just walking down the street...was sad to see how they treated them. |
The best thing since sliced bread - the Tuktuk! |

Right in the middle of this market was a DHL stand - was totally outta place. |
They still use glass bottle for majority of their soda drinks. |

Felt like there was more taxi's here than NYC.They were everywhere. |
Talk about high security - cameras everywhere, but no one watching 'em! Hahaha |
| |
|
The famous MBK shopping centre. |
 |
| |
|
 |
 |
| |
|
No change rooms really - so we just geared down right in the middle of the store. No one cares there.. |
 |
| |
|
"How does my butt look in these oness?" - so didn't say that Andy! (ok we did but will never admit it) |
More Tuk Tuk traveling |

Went down to our hotel lobby for a drink - there was this famous Thai model/singer doing a photo shoot! I knew we chose the right hotel! |
Mmmmmm! |
| |
|
"let's go down this Soi guys - looks like some good clubs" - was that ever the beginning of the end. Quite the eye opening experience! |
 |
| |
|
Really really cool bar - The Bed Bar. Totally outta place where it was located though (think it was Sukhamvit Soi 13) |
| |
|
 |

|
Yup, you're right Ryan - just our luck it happened to be "that" night we just happen to go! |
 |
| |
|
Busted! |
Off to Q Bar. Another hopping place. Just around the corner from Bed Bar. |
| |
|
|
Ouch - she (or he - we are in Bangkok) left already! |
| |
|
The Tuk Tuk's are the only way to get around! Such a blast! |
| |
|
Be wary when the Tuk Tuk drivers want to take you to a stop on your way to your destination. For every stop (usually a souvenir store, jewelry store, etc.) they take you to they owners give them these coupons. And if you buy something, they get more coupons. See below we found this out the hard way. |

After our driver took us to a couple "stops" we ran outta gas - hence ending up here! |
| |
|
 |
The scariest mannequin's around! |
| |
|
Puts our electronic "superstores" to shame. This was a massive mall, 7 floors, packed full of nothing but electronics. |
| |
|
Can't see it here - but the happiest driver around. We quickly discovered how to get around fast. Give them incentive. We negotiated with this driver that if he got us back to our hotel under 15 mins he'd get 150baht, after 15 mins 80 baht. He got us there in 8mins. The day before with a different driver took 20mins. |
| |
|
WAY overpriced drinks... |
 |
| |

We were looking for trouble on a Sunday night when we were standing outside this one club (dead inside) trying to figure out where to go when this expat came up to us and say go down to "RCA district". It's where the locals go...rich locals that is. Nothing but BMW's, MB's, Porsches, etc. outside all the clubs. As wary as we were, we checked it out - turned out to be an awesome area. Defo going back there. |

Funniest thing in Thailand was Podrasky getting denied at 9 of 10 bank machines. Not for lack of funds, but just didn't like his CIBC card! Became a game after a while! |

More gearing down in public markets... |

|
Back to Tokyo en route to YVR |
 |
| |
|
BKK is a really cool airport! Except when ya have to go home :( |
| |
|
 |
Now that's what I call legroom! In the bubble of the 747 - so quiet! |
