This morning we said good-bye to Jules & Jeff as they made their way back to Toronto via Hong Kong. Travelling with these 2 love-birds has been a blast.. It was also a great time to 'catch-up' on all things in TO for the past 3 months....We wish them a safe trip home!
..and Welcome to Bangkok Thailand!
Woe.. it is stinkin hot & humid here, and traffic sucks beyond suck! Our hotel, the Grand Mercure Park Avenue was near the skytrain along Suhkumvit Road, so getting around was fairly convenient.
Our 1st stop was the Tokyu department store followed by the 'MBK' Centre at National Stadium Station. Nothing but more flea market shopping; floors of cell phone booths, pirated DVD's and classic souvenir shit (clothing, trinquets, etc..). The 'MBK Food Centre' was a hit, serving 'street-style' food in an air-conditioned environment.
After a scroll through the Siam Square area (the main shopping and entertainment zone of Bangkok) we chose 'Lavender Massage' for another 2 hour session of pulling, stretching and kneeding...unfortunately 2 hours quickly became 1 as my rookie ladie wasn't willing to apply more force (as i had later requested) beyond what she could handle...that was plain bullshit!..she was lazy and i think never wanted to break a sweat...well i guess for 200 baht, thats what you get in this part of the town!
