Had a simple plan for the day but that went out the window as soon as I exited the hotel. A smooth-talking tour guide convinced me to go with him for the day. He suggested some sights to see and the cost seemed reasonable. But shortly into the drive, snail paced by traffic, he kept suggesting changes. These changes started to benifit him more so the ride became tense and argumentative. I did see some interesting things in the day but it was spoiled by the attitude of the driver. I did get to see some amazing temples and markets.
Bangkok has lots to offer but getting around by public transport is confusing and difficult. The limited rail system is run by different organizations so is complicated. I didn’t try the bus system.
Im staying in a hotel away from the city Centre and that is where everything is. I’m exhausted.
