We're in Bangkok, but not for much longer; we're leaving tomorrow to head south. Except we're not going to Phuket, we're going to a place called Hua Hin about 3 hours out of Bangkok. We'll be there for 4 days (in a luxury resort! Well, why not?) and then we're getting the train down to Butterworth in Malaysia.
What do I think of Bangkok? Well, I think it's growing on me. After getting here from Hong Kong it just seemed too dirty. Overcrowded, hot, smelly and noisy is fine; I mean Hong Kong is the same and I loved it there. But here is just dirty without much in the way of trying to keep it clean going on.
Like I said, though, I think I'm growing to like it, or at least not dis-like it. People here are friendly, the weather is warm, and it's cheap. And just in time for me to reach that state of mind, we leave. Ah well, onwards and southwards.
