One Night In Bangkok (Well, Four Actually)

Over our rather lovely Vietnamese dinner in Fong Lye, we start to list all the things that we wanted to do during our 4 day trip to Thailand, and create a sort of an itinerary. Things some of us start to scribble down are:

• Ancient city (Ayutthaya) - day trip
• Massage ('happy ending' optional!)
• National Museum (to which they give me funny looks)
• Floating market (half day trip, 6.30am start!)
• Bridge over River Kwai (half day trip)
• Wat Arun
• Madame Tussauds
• Cocktails and nice dinner
• River cruise
• Chakuchak Market / Shopping

After consideration, someone else adds the following:

• Clubbing / DJ Station
• Patpong
• Cabaret
• Go-go / ladyboy show

Notice the first list was more cultured? That was mine. 

Anyway, this is an impossibly large itinerary and we'll be hard pressed to do most of the items here, but it is a first pass. Time to shed a few items... every time we go over it and get to the museum they all look at me, shaking their heads, but it IS listed as one of the top 10 things to do in Bangkok, so it should be good: and besides I love museums, even if sometimes it’s just to get out of the heat.

Actually we are able to fit most things in, and we only have to lose the River Kwai. I'm not concerned, as I have seen the film... Everything else is on our "plan"...

Bangkok here we come!
