Flying out of Bangkok, I had two days to spend in the capital city. I decided to go check out the royal palace, but was turned away because of not having the proper clothes! So around the corner is a famous Buddhist temple that I explored for the rest of the day. Thai architecture is really great, so unique. That night I tried to go see an Thai boxing match, but there was som stadiu confusion and I missed the whole thing. SO I just chilled on Kho San Road, probably the busiest backpacker street in the world. It's filled with western-style restaurants, vendors selling everyhting from 'Rolex' watches to university degrees! I ended up meeting some Thai university students and partied a bit with them, so it was intersting to mix with some locals. The next day I just walk all over, hit a few markets, and enjoyed the last day of my first vacation in Thailand.
