Bangsanity

Bangkok is really intense. So many people, so much movement, all the time, every hour of the day. We decided to venture out into the madness and accidentally ended up walking 15 miles. This was in part to avoid a traffic jam on our way home that would have taken at least 1-4 days to clear up. Total Bangsanity. As a traveller you hear about "how bad traffic jams in Bangkok are" but you can't really understand what that means until you see it. It's stunning. There are street signs warning drivers not to take naps in their car because things sit at a standstill for so long. Motorbikes take to the sidewalks. Tourists run screaming for their hotels etc etc... Public transportation is where its at yo. Not the bus kind, but the train kind. Trains don't have to content with pesky wheeled vehicles.

Please enjoy the buttload of pictures I took while walking around for hours. We saw some cool things.
