| Skytrain above the downtown traffic |
Jack and I started our second day a little more refreshed
than the first. After talking with Eric yesterday, we had big plans to take the
ferry along the river and check out the Grand Palace. Our hostel is right off
the BTS line, a Skytrain that runs all around town. Bangkok has THE most amazing public
transportation and it is incredibly affordable. In addition to the Skytrain,
there is an elaborate subway system and plenty of busses.
We took the Skytrain to the central stop of the Chao Praya Express. This is a system of ferries that runs along the Chao Praya river
making various stops depending on the line. Eric recommended we avoid the
tourist line and take the orange line instead. Good call!
