Bangkok Tuesday 16-4-13

 This is our Blog catch up and rest day. So not much else to add. I have just typed for 3 hours so we are now going for a foot massage before I start adding photos.

 

One sight from out hotel window is double parked cars with traffic guards who roll the second row of cars (parallel parked) to allow the first row (angle parked) to move when required. So people park their cars and leave them in neutral so this process can happen while they are at work or shopping. Good use of space and excellent example of trust.

 

Just got back from the Calypso Lady Boy Show. What a great night. We were collected at our hotel at 5.30 and dinner was at 6.30 followed by traditional cultural dancing. At 8.15 the Calypso show started. A huge cast and it is difficult to imagine that they are boys rather than girls. The costumes were stunning and they performed a wide range of song and dance acts.
