Bangkok

Maybe the preparatory imbibement helped, or it was the lateness of the hour after a full day, but I think I dozed off twice before the plane took off, slightly late at 3:45am! The flight was rather too short, just under 6 hours, to get a decent spell of sleep but we are here and arrived at the new Bangkok airport, just opened last October. Quite high tech looking but further out than the old one, although a new expressway made it a fairly quick journey to the hotel. The immigration is no longer a long walk from the plane and was well manned so was very quick. Resting up is the order before looking for some good Thai food tonight and an early night to accompany the lateness of last night and the earlyness of tomorrow morning's departure to Hanoi.
