Travel: Thailand - Bangkok

[auntieM]

If you like the old city and elephant rides, you can take a train to Ayutthaya.

We went there for a day and it was worth the trip.. ..don't worry about the flood damage, they recovered liao. Do google for more info...

The floating maket is fun, you can try too. Does anybody know whether Bangkok people celebrate Lunar Chinese New Year, thinking of travelling there during that time, worry that shops will close if they celebrate like us.

Are you referring to Dreamworld?
Young kids will find it fun and a lot of things are quite rundown liao.. My thai friends told us to avoid the snow city in there coz rather unhygienic. Quite far out too..

taking taxi from hotel is very convenient... i always ask the porter to help me tell the driver to go straight to the place that i want, and no problems at all...
