One night in Bangkok.

Ok, so it wasn’t one night but it’s been a blur. I haven’t had time to post at all, it’s been crazy. Landed Saturday morning and spent the day at the hostel, lingering around on my own indoors as the rain was really heavy but come the night time, and the new arrivals drinking games, I had plenty of new mates, to them it was probably just some annoying cockney wannabe. The night was heavy but the next day was a pool party which soothed the hangover and then a group of us headed to the Lebua Hotel which features a sky bar and on to an infamous ping pong show at Soi Cowboy. The sky bar was very impressive and it’s a trip worth taking but be prepared to dress up and spend some dosh, it’s £20 a drink! I don’t have much to say about the ping pong show but for those of you that don’t know what that is, it’s quite an experience. There’s something very disturbing but also very intriguing about holding a ballon above your head whilst a lady pops it from 15ft with a dart fired from her vagina. The story about the drunk Japanese guy and a banana is best left for in person! Yesterday involved some pampering, I had a lovely foot massage and pedicure, as is the custom in Thailand, then headed out for some sight seeing. You’ll see in the pictures that I made friends with a blinged up local and the funny juxtaposition of a monk at a temple staring at his iPad. Even he’s been sucked in to a screen. Hopefully climbing the Ghost Tower today and then off on a sleeper train to Bangkok this evening. Will update more frequently as hopefully the drinking will subside up north…
