en route from myanmar to cambodia i had a day-long layover at bangkok’s old international airport – don meaung. the immigration officer wouldn’t let me into thailand when i said i had a connecting flight later that evening – so i got another immigration card, wrote down on it the name of a famous hotel that i wished i was staying at, waited until he left his post and then went through another line and all was good.
i took the mrt/subway downtown and perused the famous temple of the reclining buddha – wat pho. impressive, but very crowded after just coming from myanmar. then of course i had to hit up the best mall food courts in the world as well before leaving!
