Although the weather forcast wasn't al that great, the sun was shining and it was really hot.
We decided to visit Bkk main tourist attractions on foot today, starting with the ones which are most nearby to our current  guesthouse in Banglamphu area.
1)Grand Palace
2)Tempel of emerald buddha
3)Wat Pho (lying Buddha)
4)Wat Arun (damn those stairs are almost completely vertical up!) --> Line was scared going back down.

5)Golden Mount Temple
6)Loha Prasat
Khaosan Road?!? => Ridiculous street which looks like a strip in Ibiza...strange.
In total we walked 15 kilometers, a footmassage sounded like music in our ears.
However we didn't do this because we wanted to stay within our budget/day.

This evening we meet up with some friends in a bar to chat and maybe get some Do's and Don'ts for Thailand since their trip is almost finished. Tomorrow we change guesthouse & then decide what to do. Maybe we will take a short trip somewhere up north for the weekend since our bikes will only arrive in BKK on Tuesday next week.
This means we certainly will have to take a train within the next three weeks if we want to be in Hatyai to catch our flight to Kuala Lumpur.

Ps. Lieve familie en vriendjes/vriendinnetjes, er zullen ook regelmatig blogs gepost worden in het Nederlands hoor.
Ardan typt ze gewoon in het Engels wanneer hij begint omdat hij dit ook door zijn collega's wil laten lezen en door iedereen die geïnteresseerd is over de hele wereld. Jaja, er zijn al Japanners, Amerikanen,... op onze blog geweest :)
