Well, there is never a dull moment in this city! Since our last check-in we have experienced even more. Our modes of transportation list is coming along: airplane, foot, taxi, tuk tuk, water taxi/ boat shuttle, pick up truck, bus, sky train and underground train! On the 2nd, we took our local transportation (with the help of a new friend named Lynn) to Bangkok's Chinatown. We explored the endless streets of markets and wholesale but didn't end up buying much as we had a hard time understanding why anybody would need 200 rubber chickens. After Chinatown, we took the sky train to National Stadium where we found a ginormous mall. We enjoyed lunch and a one hour thai massage- for 300 baht :) we also found a beautiful art and culture centre. In the evening, we took a free boat to a riverside market/ entertainment venue called 'Asiatique'. Here we rode a gondoliswheel (Ferris wheel with gondolas) and enjoyed Thai ice- different flavours! We also lounged on some very very fake grass.. The next day we went to the Chatuchak Weekend Market. This is a 35 acre market with stalls spanning from pets (monkeys, turtles, bunnies, bugs, fish, puppies....) to papayas. It was said that around 200,000 people visit this market on an average day. We continued on to Lumphini Park where there was a free admission Bangkok Symphony Orchestra concert in the park. If you ever  find yourself in this neighbourhood and are in need of a romantic date this would've been ideal. Swan paddle boats, lucious green palm trees, cobble stone streets and a walking path.... Plus it's free- an ideal Menno date! We have now checked out of our apartment and into an East Indian guesthouse. Today, we learned the hard way how big Bangkok is. I dire need of a swim, we ventured to a "nearby waterpark." By the time we got there, three hours later, the park was just shutting down.. We were told we could look around for twenty minutes- so we b-lined it to the pool and stealthily took a quick dip! We are planning to go to Chiang Mai tomorrow so see you there faithful followers!
