Two nights in Bangkok

On our way back from autumn break in Krabi and Railey beach we had a two nights stop-over in Bangkok and after two days in this incredible city, I realize how far Hanoi is from "true" economic development. It really does feel like a small village in comparison. I am just not sure yet, if I prefer this or that...

We had a busy schedule, went to the huge weekend market at Chatuchac for some arts and handicraft shopping (conveniently they also had extremely big bags for sale, that actually fitted all the big Thai cushions and other important stuff I had to buy), the somewhat smaller Suan Lum Night Bazaar just down the road from our hotel, and also spent one day at the Acuarium and walking around mouth open in the absolutely enormous Paragon shopping mall. I didnt even see a temple, much less the river. Maybe next time. Which definitely will be soon!

Brave girl!

Hard to choose...

Big city life is tiering...
