It was the breakfast bar at the hostel where I stayed in Bangkok. It was terrible.

Jim Thompson House
Jim Thompson House
The house is one of the best attractions in Bangkok. The house is unique and contains a nice collection of Thai art. Plus, it only costs $3 to see it.
MBK Center
MBK Center
This is a picture of the inside of the MBK Center. They had a McDonald’s and thousands of other stores. The MBK Center is a shopping mall located at the end of one of Bangkok’s Sky Train lines and was founded in 1985. At one time, it as the largest shopping mall in Asia. The structure is 8 stories high and has an area of 1.5 million square feet. It has over 2,500 shops and estimated that it has an average of over 100,000 customers a day. I’d say that’s a lot of mall.
BTS Skytrain
BTS Skytrain
It’s the BTS Skytrain. It whisks a person about Bangkok with astounding efficiency. It’s comfy when it’s relatively empty. It’s a form of torture when it’s crowded with riders. I rode it because I didn’t want to try and make my way around a very large city on a bike or a scooter.
Khao San Road – Bangkok
Khao San Road – Bangkok
It’s just a sign that points the way to Khao San Road in Bangkok, Thailand. So what’s the significance of that? Well, Khao San Road is supposed to be a backpacker ghetto of epic proportions. They come from everywhere, it’s said, to sample the mysteries of Bangkok and Khao San Road and to create an urban legend that will endure forever. What did I find when I went there? I’ll let you go and find out for yourself.
Phnom Penh River View
Phnom Penh River View
This is a river view from a bridge in Phnom Penh of the river and some of the houses that lined the river. The houses on the river bank were somewhat unsightly. But, across the street (unpaved) there were much nicer dwellings. I passed thru Phnom Penh on my way to Siem Reap and then returned a few days later to stay for a few days before flying to Bangkok.
