On the fourth night in Bangkok, which was a Saturday, I went church-hunting to fulfill my Sunday obligation. The Church of the Holy Redeemer (a Redemptorist parish) is located on Soi Ruam Rudee (Road) and is about a 10-15 minute walk from the Phloen Chit skytrain station. I caught the 5.30pm mass which was in English. Since Bangkok time is 1 hour behind Malaysian time, I had actually attend mass at the same time as Angie, who had attended mass at 6.30pm (Malaysian time) at the Church of Saints Chastan and Imbert in Seberang Prai.

After mass, I explored the Sukhumvit area to look for dinner. I settled on a simple roadside stall selling fried noodles. It tasted similar to Penang Char Kuay Teow except that the noodles were like Wan Ton noodles.
[Fried Noodle Stall: It is located on a road with many, many massage centres (notice the signboards?)... don't get any funny ideas... I'm a good boy]
[My after-mass dinner: Costs 25B]
After dinner, I was at a night market at the Phahon Yothin area to savour the sights and smell before cathing a bus back to the Kasetsart University guesthouse.
