Baiyoke Tower and Lumpini Park

Wednesday night a few of us finally made our way to Baiyoke Tower. Baiyoke Tower is the country's tallest building. We were able to see the night sky of Bangkok from the 84th floor -outdoor observation deck. It was pretty sweet.

And yesterday, Jenn and I took a cheap Khlong (canal) boat to the NANA stop to go get some yummy Kabobs. We got off at the wrong stop and had to walk a bit out of our way but that was okay...its not like its 90 degrees and humid or anything! GOOD LORD ITS HOT! After our middle eastern cuisine we continued our walking crusade and headed south to Lumpini Park. Lumpini Park is nestled in the middle of the city. Once you walk in the gates you forget your are in Bangkok. So peaceful and serene.

After lounging in the park for a bit we decided to walk to Siam Paragon (one of the malls) but about 1/3 of the way into our walk, and two bottles of water later, we decided to jump on an air conditioned train and enjoy some cool air. When we got to the mall we are immediately surrounded by hundreds if not thousands of people. Insane. Jenn was looking for something specific so we were in and out of there as soon as possible. From the mall we found our way to another Khlong stop and took the boat back home.
