Yeah so, on the Sunday we basically just traveled from Chang Mai to Bangkok, our final holiday destination, before we return home. I am getting sick of living out of a suitcase, the novelty has WORN OFF. Especially now in Bangkok when the clothes are ALL dirty and a laundry that charges by the kilo in no where to be seen!
On Sunday night we decided to amble down the road in search of food. We were harassed by a tuk tuk driver who insisted on driving us to our destination to prove that the place we were heading to was not open - of course, the shops on the street were not open, but I am sure the restaurants in the square would have been doing a good trade. So instead he drove us to a restaurant of his choosing, which ended up costing us just under 1000 baht (meals have been costing us less than 300 baht for the 3 of us). RIP OFF! On the way to the restaurant he kept going on about nice Thai girls, and ping-pong balls (need I say more), which we laughed off.
After dinner, we wanted him to drive us back to the general area of where he picked us off, we didn't want him to know where we were staying...! But he got pissed that we didn't want to see the ping-pong balls - and tried to bet with us that the pratunam markets (our destination) would be closed. Of course, I know they are 24 hours and that they don't appear from the street. So he walked off and we took the opportunity to "run away" and hail a REAL cab. So that is our tuk-tuk story....
