... XIV of France and was courted by Dutch, Portuguese, English, Chinese and Japanese merchants.<br> <br>Visitors can explore and appreciate Thai history in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya, which is situated only 86 kilometers north of Bangkok. Visitors to Ayutthaya can marvel at its grandeur reflected through numerous magnificent structures and ruins concentrated in and around the city island surrounded by Maenam Chao ...

... Probably more frustrating if you're slow, large, uncoordinated, and/or indecisive about where you're going. I think we mastered the art of maneuvering through Bangkok city sidewalks, but that didn't make them any less hot or crowded or smelly. There was no way I was going to do any shopping in Bangkok, not with elbows and armpits of other people shoved in my face. <br><br>We had a beer in the area before heading home after a very long, hot, but interesting day. <br>

... it to me I was a bit unhappy with the size, it had enough room for the bed, but figured it was only for one night so screw it. Barely any water came out of the shower head, which made me contort my body in all sorts of strange positions to get covered in water, but it did have a really comfy bed. The restaurant was pretty good too. I had lunch there, rented a scooter for 300 baht, and then out I went to explore the ancient ruins of the city.<br><br> First up was Wat Phra ...

... use similar or identical sounds so it's quite the task to interpret what they are actually saying. I'm at my best when the Thai person speaks to me in English and i respond in Thai :)<br><br>I signed up at a gym, i figured it was time to get my ass back in shape. The gym is very nice, 3 floors, tons of equipment, yoga rooms, boxing rooms, massage place, etc. The best part is that it's only a 10 minute walk from my school ...

Just a selection of pictures from around and about the Sukhumvit area of Bangkok, I am staying at Soi 19 (street 19) of Sukhumvit (Main artery street). Some of the pictures i have kept more for artistic quality as its hard setting a tripod up in Bangkok city, the night shots require a tripod so they are long exposures, I like them so sod you lot. Anyway, after the palace visit I creamed into bed, had a couple of hours and just got back after a nice meal in a posh bit of town, cost me ...

So, it has been so terribly long since I have written a blog, I am somewhat overwhelmed where to start...but Ive never been the a chronological writer, I think I might actually be quite famous for being a scatter-brained, no-method-to-my-madness writer that just writes whatever pops into my mind. The mind of a space cadet.... see, there I go again. Where was I?<br><br>So, leaving Cambodia couldn`t have been more hilarious (looking back on it a month later). We found a "shared taxi" (aka an old ...

... og fant et super billig hotell - 17 nkr per person. Etterpå tok vi Tuk Tuk tilbake for å møte resten av klassen, for nå var det tid for Grand Palace. Det ligger vest i Bangkok, rett ved den store elven Chao Phraya, og er nok byens største turistattraksjon. Grand Palace er et stort område med masse bygninger, utsmykninger, templer og parker. Der var og et tempel med en buddha som alle skulle be til. Men for å komme inn her og se buddhaen måtte man ta av ...
