Had a "busy" day yesterday that started by leaving the hotel room at 4pm and seeing that we missed the boat heading back to the "Club" room to drink our free cocktail. Free cocktail (warm bloody mary - which was actually pretty tasty) turned into free food too. We filled our bellies then casually left to enjoy the last 15 minutes of sunlight with a ride on the river taxi into town.
The express boats don't run often at night so we hopped on the Hilton's boat but ended up on the wrong side of the river. Took this turn of events as an opportunity to explore their hotel and decided we like ours much better. But would definitely stay there if we had enough points. Also now want all Beadniks stores to have infinite pools with fires burning on them. Very cool.
Found a boat to take us to River City, kind of shopping mall area. Took pictures of cool antiques we would like to find reproductions of and bargained for old beads (couldn't get a low enough price) and stingray wallets. Those may be showing up in some of your stockings if we make it back to river city!
Salai's apartment where she lived for 4 months in Bangkok is gone - she was upset and i'm starting to wonder if she did live here. We got lost a lot! (did not)
Walked down Silom road and turned down many lovely offers to see ping pongs on Patpong Road before taking the Sky Train home.(*on Patpong road 1&2 there is a variety of stage shows that may intimidate the average prud...thus the menu of what is available...ping pong balls have been a favorite of mine for years...one must use your imagination: I have always considered it a sport not an activity. Whereas the magic marker would be considered an art, especially if calligraphy is involved. The menu continues but much too long for a blog. I just thought this area of town was part of a well rounded education for a young lass like Amy.
Oh - and we brought home a stray dog. Naming him Jack. He's cute!
