As this was our second time in Bangkok we realy didn't intend to spend any time there, and planned to use it only to get to Kanchanaburi where you can see tigers. However we couldn't seem to get ourselves organised. So we decided to do the next best thing and go shop! A boat ride downtown and a few hours and purchases, mainly by Mik I have to add, and we were finished. I'd even managed to squeeze in a haircut, which at $10 for a Toni and Guy trim couldn't be missed. It was the one and only time my hair has been straight in nearly 3 months now.As we hadn't got anything organised regarding the tigers we took another day out to go to the cinema. We decided to splash out and treat ourselves to VIP seats, it still cost less for 2 than it would to go in the UK. We felt really decadent sat in our massive armchairs set out in pairs with loads of leg room. We considered staying the whole day! We didn't, but we did watch The Island. Not a bad plot but the best bit was that it stared Ewan McGreggor and at times you got to see two of him on the screen at once - PHOAR! Also staring Scarlett Johanson so Mik was happy. I have to say she was stunning - cow. Might have to get that one on DVD.Basically Bangkok costs too much money as there is just so much to spend it on. And whilst we actually throughly enjoyed big city buzz each time we visited by this time schools were out and it was heaving. Won't be rushing back but I have grown to like the place. So once we had survived the tigers, more from Mik about that, we got the hell out of there and headed for the islands.
