…..but we didn’t find the Old Farang, (the Foreigners District) area of Bangkok though we were very close–until we got all turned around and walked in the completely opposite direction. However, we did get familiar with taking the water “buses”, which could have been very useful to Trish the day after tomorrow, the first day with the group.
Before not getting lost, we had afternoon tea at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in the Authors’ Lounge and were pleasantly surprised to find many of James Michener’s books in the bookcases. Like Raffles in Singapore, there is a suite named after him.
