Things to do in Bangkok

On a recent trip to Bangkok, I realized how much activities you can squeeze in a day....at least I had to, having only a full day to tour the city and a full day to do my shopping. I so love Bangkok, the diversity, the tiangges, the food (yum)............. Anyway, here's a list of some things you might want to do (or try) in case you get to visit the Land of elephants...............

Go on a Temple tour









Practice some yoga. Do some asanas.

Pardon me for murdering the Gaurakshasana pose, blame it on about a dozen tourists right in front of me, I can't concentrate...............

Seek the shade. The weather is very similar to ours, so expect scorching heat by midday.

Unless of course you wish to have fine lines, wrinkles, and look like a raisin by the time you hit your 40's.







Don't miss the elephant and crocodile show.















Who knows, you might even get a glimpse of your native flag. Mabuhay ang bansang Pilipinas.





Ride an elephant.



Or better yet, do it with a loved one. It's supposed to be romantic. ;-)wink wink




Ride a bare elephant.











But if and when you do, be ready. I was unprepared for this one as I was pulled from a crowd but I gladly obliged. However, I was unaware that Lumpy here was wet, hence my ass was saturated afterwards.

Feed an elephant.




It made me see how much facial muscles I have since I barely notice them when I frown.



Wrestle a croc.






Yeah right.

Seriously though, I miss Steve Irwin.



Go on a dinner cruise.





Request for VIP seats.

Pray though that it does not rain as you'll be here for the next 2 1/2 hours.



If all else fails,

Dance.








(Thai???)









(like an Egyptian perhaps.......)




Or in my case, TRY. Dancing is not of my strong points. I suck at it, obviously.
