Bangkok

.
Is this it? Is this the world infamous notorious jiffy KhawaSon Road? God, I expected worse/better, god knows I’ve seen much worse/better. It’s just a street…

Yeah, I’m at Bangkok. It’s time I get here, right? Over a month of touring the islands has reached a point where I need something different. So, a last minute felt-like-it flight by Bangkok Airways from Phuket to Bangkok (1950b), a bus to Osi’s recommended Rambuttri Village Inn (clean place, yucki people, but it could just be the common thing here). Walking these tiny streets I was amazed to see my whole built up fantasy of what this place is shattering into small bits. I might be running ahead of myself, but I guess I wanted some sort of adventure. Instead I found what appears to be another Thai city. Big city, true, but just a Thai city. Fine, I could ‘rest’ here… again… from the ‘hectic’ islands.

Today is the 14th, VISA expires on the 19th, so after a couple’o days here my options are:
- India.
- Laos.
- Some other place?

(If you got some shopping requests from Bangkok/MBK/SundayMarket you want mailed back to Israel with some other of my stuff, this might be a good time… though I make no promises…)
