We woke up late. Like 12:00 in the afternoon is when we finally got out of bed. We haven’t had any decent sleep for a while. To was a chore day. Booking travel, choosing an island to chill out on for the rest of our trip, laundry, hair cut, etc…
Eventually we made it up onto the roof of the hotel to see their pool. It was only 3-4 feet deep, but it was fantastic. It looked nice, the water wasn’t freezing cold, the chairs around were nice… it was a shame it was only open to 6:00.
After we frittered time away in the streets and then headed off to check out the protests. They were definitely being done the way a protest should be done. Organized, visible, calm, good natured… and finally we got to see the non-tourist prices. There were food and merchandise stands set up for the protesters, and for example, glasses that are priced at 250 baht on khao san road were priced at 50 baht.
After we checked out a show, and then after a little more shopping we headed back to the room.
