Back to Bangkok

Last night we flagged down a tuk tuk and made our way to Chiang Mai train station for the 17:55 sleeper train to Bangkok, actually quite sad to be leaving Chiang Mai because it has so much to see/do and is so chilled out! It was early evening when we were at the station so light was amazing and meant I was able to get some quite cool photos...

Bangkok to Chiang Mai

Yesterday me and Isabella checked out of Sawasdee Smile Inn on Khao San Road, and planned to head up to Chiang Mai. We had quite a chilled out day and didn't really explore too far from the hotel.

The plan today was to get up at about 6am and head to Thonburi Market for some breakfast then catch the 7:30am train to visit the River Kwai, but it ended up being more hassle then it was worth! The taxi driver we flagged down was adamant that it wasn't worth going there and we should go somewhere else (probably on commission!). Is and I just walked away in the end because they were determined to take us there, so instead we went to Wat Pho (Temple of the Reclining Buddha). It was pretty impressive... 46m long and 15m high!

First few days in Bangkok

Well the 11 and a half hour flight wasn't the best I've had... I just couldn't get comfortable! But the food was tasty and usual good choice of films, I watched Despicable Me. Me and Isabella landed in Bangkok airport at about 4pm local time (9am UK time)
