The last stages.

Sunday 15th July 2007. Arrived in Bangkok after a long and tiring flight. We both had some left over cold so suffered with pressure in our ears. Managed only a couple of hours sleep. Bangkok is a huge airport, the biggest we've been in. Service was good and our car was waiting to take us into the city to our hotel. There is a lot of building work going on, including what appears to be an elevated rail line from airport to city.
It got a bit worrying when the car was stopped at the approach to the hotel and mirrors were passed under the car before we could proceed. We were in our room by 4.30pm and glad to sit down in a seat that didn't move.




Views from our room over the city. A storm was brewing.
The hotel adjoins a huge shopping centre so we decided to go and have a look. It was massive but too busy and too noisy for us to take it all in as we both still have ear ache and mild headaches.

Arranged for an early wake up call as we have to be at the airport by 5.30am.
