Summer 2011 - Bangkok

Image
I went for a short trip to Bangkok at the end of July with my bestie, Summer. Also met our dear Maripasu/Karen there :D Went there for 3 nights and 4 days, but we only had 2 full days for sightseeing and SHOPPING! Air Asia.. I love the motif..The "kerbau"/buffalo/carabao.. :D First destination we went was to the Grand Palace.. it was a spectacular place. The weather was sunny and bright - we were very fortunate as the weather forecast predicted heavy rains.. We took the BTS (SkyTrain) from our hotel to the river boat cruise. The BTS is very convenient and cheap. I believe it's the best mode to travel around Bangkok. (In the BTS) our stop would be to Saphan Taksin We're here! There's a tourist river cruise that you can take. It only costs 250baht (~RM2.50, $0.80, Euro 0.60). On the way, there is someone giving commentary on the buildings we pass by. The ride is about 30 minutes but it feels short because we were having fun :) Sight
