Or what I saw walking around.
\n<\/a>
\nIs there a Sam here? Works for Royal Fashions?
\nAnyone? Buelllller?<\/p>\n


\n<\/a>
\nThis is the infamous Bed Nightclub. It looks more impressive in the daytime. It\u2019s also 10 minutes walking from Duker\u2019s place. Did he plan that? The mind wobbles…
\n<\/a>
\nHow about some REAL Red Bull? It\u2019s more of a vitamin tonic here. It tastes like Red Bull that we have in the states, except flat. It ain\u2019t carbonated. Also the logo looks a bit more fierce lah!
\n<\/a>
\nThey do some real creative things with motorcycles here. Besides the tuk-tuks, you see stuff like this sometimes. I was tempted but realized that anything chocky will melt in like 3 minutes and since I\u2019m a slow eater, I dun want to be chocky covered bug bait.
\nI\u2019m already bug bait without being chocky covered! 14 bug bites on various parts of my legs, from ankles to hamstrings. The penalty for wearing shorts and not thinking about bug repellant. Shorts are comfy but you pay the price. If you decide to come to BKK and want to tour culturally significant places such as Wats and Temples and Royal Palaces, you gotta bring long pants (which I did) and shoes (which I did NOT).
\nBuddhist temples are a bit more accessible, seeing how they\u2019re everywhere and part of malls and such. Here\u2019s the famous 4 face Buddha, on the corner of a mall.
\n<\/a>
\nMore construction that didn\u2019t pan out, like in Johor.
\n<\/a>
\nBut SOMEONE\u2019s doing business there…
\n<\/a>
\nFor my Singapore readers: There\u2019s only one Citibank in the entire city. It\u2019s appropriate that it\u2019s directly across the street from the Singapore Embassy.
\n<\/a>
\nNice.
\n<\/a>
\nIs this traffic? Or traffic calming? Or bad planning? Or all of the above? Who knows?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
