Bangkok Part III

The last thing Rachelle and I want to do today is leave Koh Tao, but it's out of our hands. Bangkok is calling us back, for one last time. Our flight leaves on the 26th and we need to depart from the beautiful island today. The morning ferry was very nice. Much better than the other ferries we've had to take. It had a television that played old Americas Funniest Videos episodes. There was some funny stuff. The boat only took 3 hours to find the mainland. From there we took an 8 hour bus to Bangkok. The bus was also nice and played pirated DVD's; recent cinema releases including Battle Los Angeles and Tron. However, they had the sound volume too low so there was no point unless you can lip read, which I can't.

We arrived at around 9PM and chose the guesthouse we used last time; it's on the street parallel to Khaosan Road. I suggested we eat on Khaosan. I was wrong to. It's great for nightlife, but trying to hold a conversation in a restaurant-bar that is blasting through the decibels is more than difficult. The food was pants too. 

Tired from the journey, we dragged ourselves to bed. It's very sad to think that we are at our final destination before flying home.
