(Copied over from Facebook notes...)
Postcard from Bangkok - No 1
Sawasdee kaaa.....
Monday evening and accidentally located a rather posh internet cafe overlooking a food court in one of Bangkok's shopping malls, so have paid my pound to get myself an internet fix.
Journey was tiring, but the A380 leg from Dubai to Bangkok was great. Pretty amazing how that pot-bellied plane manages to get into the sky. Watched four films and barely got any sleep, so was glad to get to our hotel.
Had first massage yesterday morning, which was greatly welcome, even if it brought out a couple of sore muscles from the flight and completely knocked me out for a couple of hours. Then spent the afternoon and evening checking out the largest shopping centre in Bangkok at CentralWorld - 7 floors that puts the Trafford Centre to shame!!
Took a tour to the Royal Palace this morning and it's very grand and sparkly there. Went onto check out some more shopping malls again this afternoon - MBK, Siam Discovery, Siam Centre and Siam Paragon, where we are now....
Getting in some decent shopping, having loads of laughs with Tony and of course making the most of the vast array of food!!
Pics will come later - there is no SD card slot on this PC.
Laters!!
