  • Six Nights In Bangkok

    At KLIA, running out of battery, I charged my laptop in a quiet corner.

    My room at Plaza Athenee Bangkok, A Royal Meridien.  Yes, I'm located at N13 44 E100 32.

    Look carefully at the tag on the bottle (bottom right).  Yes, that's my North/East location  :-p

    There's that location again, at the bottom right...

    Foggy windows in the morning.

    Breakfast was a huge spread of buffet.  Amazing.  We tried to ration what we ate so that we could spread it across the five days we would be there.  Dim sum and cereal with chocolate milk would turn out to be one of the staples every day.

    Hot chocolate

    The cereal come in boxes.  Choice of full cream milk, low fat, skimmed or chocolate.

    A view from my room with the windows opened.

    Okay, I could open the window... but with caution.  Shhhh...

    Dinner at Central.

    A photo of the hotel.

    Hmm, what's this box in my room...

    Clean clothes!

    Apparently, room cleanup comes twice a day.  The second round apparently is to remove all these pillows :-p

    Chang Beer... err, water.  Staple drink for my life in Bangkok.  I had at least six bottles a day (3-4 during conference, 2 in room, 1 during breakfast).
