19/04: Enjoying our last hours at Bkk international airport

What better way to end our time in bkk than with a tuktuk to the airlink city rail station from our guesthouse? 2 big boxes strapped to the back of the tuktuk and off we go...don't think the driver got a lot of goods moving foreingers in his ride cause he was looking at us a bit suspicious...especially cause we were smart enough to negotiate a price before showing him our stuff! hahaha, tuktuk style to you to! Anyway, tipped him a bit at the end & Line gave him her sandals that she didn't need anymore. Then with some help from stationside waiting moto taxi drivers we got our boxes up into the station and on the train. Was around 6pm so it was totally packed with working people going home...not easy, but it all worked out.

Honestly if you land on bkk with your bike packed, just get the airlink rail to any station nearest to your destination and then just get all your gear ready at the station in the centre of bkk and off you go!

Good thing we packed the bikes along the scale to 23kg cause they officially scaled in at the check-in counter on 22,5kg & 23kg. Bulls-eye! So they checked in easily enough, oooeff, at least this time we should make it to our destination with our bikes. At least London, lets hope also brussels ;-) Didn't get any comments on our handluggage either. Other than that our hats (bike helmets) are a somewhat strange fashion accesoire. So the rest of the time before boarding at midnight we get to spend our last bahts & hours strolling the shops and maybe try to "buttgroove" a waiting bench.
