0011 Bangkok 2

When we haven't been on tours like the ones to the River Kwai or the bike ride around Bangkok, we have just been exploring locally around the area where Sarah and Benn live. These are just some of the things we have been doing on those days.  I should point out that before anyone comments about us eating western food when in Bangkok, the truth is that we get the BEST Thai food ever, every evening during the week when Benn and Sarah's maid Wannee cooks and serves up the most delicious meals.  And when one lives in Bangkok full time, it is nice to go out and have the occasional Roast Beef and Yorkshire Pud, or Mexican food !!

0010 Bikeride in Bangkok

Has to be a 5 Wows morning !!!   Sarah and I had an incredible bicycle tour around Bangkok, and it was so amazing. Down little alleyways, through the traffic, near-misses with tuk tuks and motorcycles, and poor Sarah had an "off" and speared her leg on the sharp edge of a laneside bench !! Luckily she was abe to keep going, but is very sore now we are home. But it was great, and we saw things and places that you would not normally ever see in Bangkok - Can strongly recommend it for anyone visiting Bangkok in the future.
