The markets and the football game

The Saturday morning and afternoon was spent on what some claim, the biggest indoor market in the world.

I joined to other travelers from China and we walked around in this mishmash of pretty much everything, and the prices or oh so low!
I ended up with some nice t-shirts a fresh pair of flip flops (the old ones flew out of my back and onto someones windscreen), underwear socks and a nice sarong all that for less 15 GBP!

Got back and took out the bike for a little spin to feel the pulse of Bangkok during the evening, with no particular plans I ended up in a big football Bangkok derby.

It was probably the most horrible game play Ive ever seen (I have seen 3 football games live in my life) and the whole game was dominated by three African guys on one of the teams. Someone was obviously even more bored than me and fired his gun in the air...

This obviously sparked some sort of panic in the audience and the police were screaming various things, so I saw this as my time to leave. The rest of the  evening was spent in a more peaceful setting and I met up with people from the hostel and we went to once again, a market and for a good meal out.

This morning I got a friendly little email from the Cambodian embassy saying that my Visa has been approved! Wow I did not know that embassies worked during Saturdays, and this changes my plans in Bangkok a bit. I think Ill head out in the morning to Cambodia trying to find Siem Reap and Angkor Wat! First Bangkok for the rest of the day and a moped riding free day. 

Guys let me just remind you of the cause, please join in and donate if you will. Thank you!
