travelogue: bangkok


I've finally managed to sort out a few of the photos I took from our trip to Bangkok earlier this month.  Most of these were taken on our first full day, when we were trying to get a feel for the city and find our way around.  We stayed pretty much in the heart of the business district and the photograph at the top was taken about 30 steps from our hotel's front door.  I love the combination of the arched windows and the way there's a very worn feeling to this building.

Everywhere we went, there were little stalls selling street food.  It looked and smelt quite delicious, but I'm afraid we weren't brave enough to try it!


I also fell in love with the colourful buses and tuk tuks.  We never actually went on one of the buses, they looked like very hot sticky affairs, with passengers crammed on and frequently hanging out of the open windows, but we did manage a few tuk tuks.  The trick mainly seemed to be keeping your use of them to short distances only, as at times you did feel like you were taking your life in your hands!

I'll try to check in again later this week with more Bangkok photos.  

See you soon xo
