I don’t sleep very well on trains so I’m tired as we reach Bangkok and descend from the train. It was nice to get a Taxi and arrive back in a familiar bedroom at the Wild Orchid Guest House, even though it was still very early in the morning the room was ready.
Then we headed out to My House for breakfast and checkin to email. There’s a gorgeous looking girl sitting casually back on the low Thai seats and pillows. All the Farang guys can’t help but look at her. Though I think she’s aware of the looks she is getting, she takes it in her stride and casually gets on with eating her breakfast and reading her book.
Two of the guys checking her out are from the train we just got off. It’s a small world when you got to Khaosan Road or Banglamphou. I’d heard the older guy talking on the train about how many girls he had slept with. It sounded sordid and nasty they way he talked about ‘making out’ with girls. I don’t think he had any respect for women. Luckily the younger guy now with him had better manners and taste.
Leon gave me a CD with lots of old news articles about the 1953 floods and flooding of the fjords in Holland and how they shored up the dykes and made dams over the following 12 years that still stand today.
