I really did not intend to visit Bangkok on this trip. However my schedule and flight connections brought me here for two nights. My last visit to Bangkok was ten years ago, and due the big traffic problems then, I thought that it should be my last one too, even having so much fun especially during 70's and 80's here.
Now to my big surprise, even douple so much vehicles in traffic, everything seems to be organised. New highways and flyovers. Not too bad at all! I got a small but clean
and nice room with TV and mnibar including Singha beer,Mekong whisky etc. in the heart of Bangkok just a few steps away from Patpong night life district. Well, this is something after the boring lonely evenings in Myanmar.
I must say that there is a difference of everything at least of 30 years between these two neighboring countries. At least all those places I recently did visit in Thailand are wealthy compared with Myanmar. However the atmosphere in Myanmar was mainly very positive, when working and waiting for better times.
Tomorrow I continue my trip to Luang Prabang in Laos.
