I spent the first 3/4 of the day in Singapore mostly hanging out and running some errands. At 20:40 I had a flight to Thailand. The folks at the check gave me the "15kg" restriction bullshit, which inconvinienced me quite a bit. Apparently, 15kg for the check in bag and 7 for the carry-on. I had a total of about 25kg. So it suddenly got really cold at the airport and I needed to wear my fleece and jacket and long pants....
The Bangkok airport is quite impressive. From first look it seemed like Thailand is quite advanced. Then I got the main street arond 12:00am (Kao Sahn - I am probably badly misspelling this), and saw the familiar signs of a third world country: 3-person motorcycle, crap cars, dirty, weirdos on the street, locals that try to sell you anything that you need and don't need - but mostly don't need. At the main street there's the "Israeli connection". A huge sign in Hebrew letting all the Israelis know where to congregate. In all honesty, however, these folks are quite helpful in providing various information.
Anyway, I walked around and found myself a nice place for 520 Baht (~17USD), which is relatively expensive around here, but I needed a clean place.
Did a bit of walking around before going to bed, and sure enough the lady boys where all around (one more for the 3rd world country signs..)
