Khao Sarn Road, Bangkok

Visited the Khao Sarn Road area of Bangkok last night after getting to Chote Chitr and finding it closed (again).  I should give up on the damn place.  Unfortunately, I left my camera in the room.  Khao Sarn at night is a spectacular place for photography.  The area is famous for being the 'backpacker area' in Bangkok.  It is basically a human carnival where the people watching is as good as it gets.  We ate at a little shack on the street that took 30+ minutes to serve out food.  At least when it arrived it was really good because I was getting pretty pissed off.  I needed an extra Beer Lao to cool me off. 

Ready to head out for another day in the big city.  Tomorrow we leave for Ko Samet.  A little island getaway on the weekend.  Monday will be the flight to the Northeastern city of Ubon Thani and then a border crossing into Laos.

Here is our snack yesterday afternoon.  The famous Isaan salad dish Som Tam.
