A little more adventurous

My plan for today was to take in the major some of the sights.  I saw the Grand Palace and Wat Pho... when I wasn't lost.


I took a river bus for some of the way and met three lovely Japanese ladies.  They encouraged me to move back to Japan and settle down there for the rest of my life.  Hmmm...



I was quite dissapointed when I stumbled onto Khaosan Road.  I'm not sure what I was expecting the road to be like.  I felt let down by seeing the McDonalds, KFC, Burger Kings, Irish Pubs and other international chain stored dotting the place.  I wouldn't be surprised if a Marks and Spencer opens there soon.


Globalisation can't be stopped.



All in all I didn't see much for a day of touring but I still had fun.
