Multi-modal travel

 Day 4 in the plague hotel.....still no lemsip.....

We resolved to take our minds off our troubles with a multi-modal transport trip.

We began with a river boat crossing to Central Station.



From there, we boarded the Sky-train, bound for the much vaunted  Erawan shrine.




The shrine itself has a slightly dodgy provenance, having been built solely to counteract the inauspicious vibes caused by the massive hotel next door....

It was shiny and floral, as you might expect, and for a few extra Baht, you can pose with the ''Shrine Dancers'.

Or you can just snap a shot for nothing.....


Somewhat disappointed, but not yet completely disheartened, we took a taxi to Chinatown.


On arrival, we were completely underwhelmed by the fish-ball stalls (and there were many...) , and rightly repulsed by the sharks fin restaurants .



The day's extravaganza ended with a restorative trip to the local park.

Tomorrow: Udon Thani!!
