Bangkok - Safari World
Day 11
02.12.2004
30 °C
Today we got up relatively early (9am) and got ready to go on a day trip. We decided on Safari World for the day and hired a driver to take us there. He said it would take an hour and a half to get there. It ended up taking three hours after lots of u-turns, swearing, and even reversing down the entire length of a freeway on-ramp. However we finally got there.
We headed straight onto a tour bus and toured through the open-range zoo which even included a white rhino. We then made our way to a dolphin and whale show which was entertaining. We saw polar bears being fed - i wouldn't want to get in the way when they're eating (or ever). We then headed to a spy show - a ridiculously awful but at the same time hilarious James Bond spoof. We then saw a bird show.
We left Safari World and took a taxi back - it was cheaper and a lot quicker than the way there - under an hour. We got back to the hotel then headed out for dinner. We caught the Skytrain to Sukhimvit Rd and ate thai food at the Thai Pot Restaurant - it was so spicy that even the locals couldn't handle it. We then walked along Sukhimvit Rd before catching the Skytrain back. We went to the multi-storey shopping mall 'MBK' but decided to head back there on another day.
We finally got back to the hotel before having a relatively early night.
