Gym or long haul attire?!
We spent 6 hours of our 9 hour flight watching movies and TV shows (Shape of Water, The Hangover, Designated Survivor etc) so we’re very tired and confused now as it’s breakfast time in the UK and dinner time here. We tried to sleep but it was impossible to find a good sleeping position that didn’t give us pins and needles! Finnair were a great airline to fly with and I recommend them to all – they even had a camera at the front of the plane so you could see what the pilot saw as we descended into Bangkok
Arriving in Bangkok was fairly smooth but there were queues to get through passport control as it’s such a busy airport! After collecting our bags we headed to the Asi counter to purchase our Thai SIM cards, where we bought 30 days of unlimited data for 549baht (£12.50).
We took an Uber to our hostel – Mad Monkey – then headed to Kohsan Road. We had our first pad Thai in Thailand (at ‘The One’) accompanied by Chang beer. Win.
We also got a banana and Nutella pancake
