I’m kinda bored, and quite lonely. And disappointed about missing my tour. I actually have very little pain since the first surgery, but I’ve a big cut on my back, so I’m not risking splitting it open by sitting on it. I also can’t lie on my back yet, which gets old really fast ...

As you know I am seriously running out of money now, so decided to spend the day yesterday seeing as much as I could of Bangkok on a budget.

Started with a trip down the river on one of the river boat-buses - surely the best value in town - 13 baht (26p) to go anywhere down the line, so I went to the Temple of the Reclining Buddha - now that is one flippin' big Buddha! And for ...

... our group who were finishing in Bangkok so we had a nice dinner and quite a few drinks down Kho San Rd and a small pub crawl back to the hotel to finish.
A rare sleep in the next day before heading off to the massive weekend market.
There are over 20,000 stalls at this market and they reckon about 200,000 people flock to the markets each weekend.
The place was massive and there was almost too much to see and buy - so we left without buying ...

We flew in to Bangkok with Air Asia. It is kind of weird, because, although we have never been to Thailand before, we felt like we had. I had pictures in my head about what Bangkok would be like because so many people we know have been there. I have wanted to go for such a long time, that after 9 months of traveling it felt quite over due! Anyway, we got a taxi in to town and checked in to a small hostel- SamSemSam, about a 10 min walk from the KoSan Road ...

Nowadays, the emphasis is on fun and water-throwing rather than on the festival's spiritual and religious aspects, which sometimes prompts complaints from traditionalists. In recent years there have been calls to moderate the festival to lessen the many alcohol-related road accidents as well as injuries attributed to extreme ...

What can I say, I found the KSR to be totally amazing, there was a real buzz about the place. So much is happening, I noticed that there was people from all over the world, there was no one Nationality dominant, It seems that the KSR is a Mecca for all backpackers. The girl that I intended to meet was not in, so I decided to stay in the area. There was many people selling a wide array of things, so I did a bit of shopping. A lot of bargain's ...
