... we paid to get there). The short of it is, if one drive tells you no meter, don't take their **** and try the next one.

That evening, we went back to the night market, ate dinner at the beer garden there (they had a super impressive selection of obscure European beers on tap ... as long as you were willing to pay 10 bucks for a pint) and were serenaded by live Thai boy/girl bands covering American pop songs... with backup dancers!

Friday was our first full day in Bangkok. We caught a sky train to the canal, where we got a tuk tuk, for 20p to a dock. We went on a boat tour with just us 3 on the boat around the canal to see all the sights - including the floating market and grand palace. We also stopped off at a snake farm which was a bit odd.. A few men were fight different poisnous snakes in a very low ring, with us just sitting a few feet away so could have been ...

... one hour, no shops." Maybe I looked like a guy who already had to much of that sh*t (maybe just because I was walking around out here), but I went for it.
He was a nice chap, and perfect for my "10 minutes" needs at each location, cos I only wanted to see and snap a few sights this day. He still tried to sell me the shop thing, but he wasn't pushy when I said "No shops" and offered him 120 baht instead of 50 (in fact he apologised for being pushy). That's just the way you ...

... contained a huge Reclining Gold Buddha housed in a white building. Via the ingenious technique of looking we quickly found the white building and paid our 80p entrance fee to be greeted by the sight of the relic which lies an impressive 50 metres long and 30 metres high. The Emerald Buddha is only 66cm high and as holy as he is, I'm dead immature and generally impressed only by "Big Things" so this was much more my cup of tea and I took plenty of snaps! After ...

... they will be getting a commission or will end up saying they are a tour guide and will want to get paid for their services!!!! Oh yes... they also look very professional, are very well dressed . . . need I say more!!

... which the driver wanted us to visit 'just for a few minutes' so he could get a petrol voucher for his troubles. At another point, the driver realised one of his three tyres was rather flat. After dropping us off outside some random closing food court not too far from Patpong, which he tried to convince us was the night market, we gave him the original fare and headed down the street towards our destination. We continued in the correct direction, even though a passing ...

... type show beacuse the culture and practices displayed at this place, STILL are being used in the Thai countryside. Pretty sweet. Anyways when we got off the bus, we were greeted by some beautiful Thai Puyee (Women) who gave us flowers. We then were paraded through the gift shop area until we came to a big courtyard. The courtyard area was fairly empty besides a few stone elephants, so we headed up stairs to the buffet area. It was massive and the food ...

I'm off to Malaysia for 5 days on Wednesday. I just found out that my flights have been rescheduled to leave in the afternoon instead of the morning, a bit of a pain but better than having the flights canceled all together!
