Arrival in Bangkok

After a long, long three aeroplane journey we were more than happy to arrive at the Sivarin Guest House, where Matt & Cynthia had stayed a couple of years ago. 

What a coincidence: the quote on the wall was from the passage in 'Le Petit Prince' that Tine read at Nadine & Simon's wedding!
The intrepid travellers were soon on the local bus across town to the station to book our overnight tickets to Chiang Mai later in the week. Cost? 7 baht (13p/15c) each


Scooters/mopeds were everywhere, often on the wrong side of the road!
We could hardly miss the station, but the town plan did help



Tuk-tuks awaiting clients at the side of the station... 
...but the best view of the station was from a great bar/restaurant opposite, our first of many Changs and our first taste of Thai food in Thailand!
