Five Nights in Bangkok: Part 1

I was in Bangkok from 18-23 October 2006 for a work-related workshop. I had to go alone as it was not practical for Angie to take leave during that period.

On the whole, I could not do much sight-seeing as the workshop sessions lasted from morning till late evening. It was only at night that my colleagues and I went out either just to have dinner and/or roam around for souvenirs.

On the night of 19 October 2006, we took the MRT to the Suan-Lum night bazaar. It covers quite a big area and has a fun-fair ground. The things on sale were pretty similar to those at the Batu Feringghi night market except that there were more Thai products.
