We have seen so many aspects of Bangkok in the last few
days,
Admired the high-rise spectacular skyline and gazed
fascinated at the floating villages and the sinking shacks lining the canals;
We have been to Tescos (yes, really) and wandered the
endless night markets and day bazaars and the maze of alleys of Chinatown.
We have marvelled at the splendour of Wot Pho and Wot Ankar,
been dazzled by the colours of the Grand Palace, yet also loved the individual
dwelling shrines, and the Chinese Temples.
Food has been a constant delight. Street stalls offer so
much choice, Paul has been able to indulge his love of meat, and I have my
spiced fruit, local ice cream (Pandan and Duran fruit are my favourites), and
we have treated ourselves to numerous iced treats, the bowl filled with sweets
at the bottom, and topped with syrup and evaporated milk!
Pics show me with at the Grand Palace, with elephant and
with an armed guard-hard to tell which was the statue!- me looking exhausted as
w e took the final ferry back at sunset, and one of the above treat.
