One night in Bangkok

We arrived at Bangkok international airport local time 10.15pm last night. This made it Aussie time approx 1.10am....(we got up at 6am😬) Thank goodness we had booked a fast track immigration service as we guessed we would be flagging and we were right . We stepped off the air bridge and there was a lovely young Thai lady with our name on a board and she  whisked us off to a fast track immigration line. The general line looked hectic, so money well spent me thinks.

We stayed spitting distance from the airport and the hotel shuttle service  was fantastic. Checked in to our room, 34° and high humidity ..we knew we were in Thailand.🥵

The hotel restaurant was on the roof and it felt like the planes that were landing were way too close. Eeek, we could feel the back draft and the aroma of  av gas wafted through the air. 

Gotta love Thailand, the fairy lights and welcoming locals made up for our tiredness.

Back to the airport on the 7.00am hotel shuttle the next morning. Not before we had a brekky for 150 Thai baht ..yummy stir fried broccoli and cauliflower and fresh fruit. 

The airport is super busy, even at 7.15am....there were queues everywhere. There must be some sort of festival going on  as there were huge tour groups and families all travelling with more luggage than you could poke a stick at. 

 Next post will be from Hanoi. Right.... now to get through the customs and immigration lines...and it's still early😬.
