We just had to stop for another couple of days in Bangkok on the way from Ko Chang (east) to Ko Lanta (west). With all the touristic bits and bobs already covered the last time the plan was to just relax and enjoy (and at Dejan's dismay even to do a bit of shopping).
And as luck would have it there was a big beer festival just outside our hotel. We tried to say no - we really, really did :). And that definitely didn't diminish our good feel about the city! Not even the next morning...
To top things off, after the beer (and dinner) we had some fresh water fish (from river running through Bangkok) at one of the street food stalls. Our expectations where very, very low, but it turned out to be one of the best fresh water fish dishes we have ever eaten (even Dejan agreed on this) - just covered with salt and then BBQ-ed.
After a night like this it was really hard to bid our farewell to Bangkok and head for the west coast. Never were we so sad on our way to the beach... Talking to other travelers we heard that Ko Lanta is the best place to visit (only divers are to follow our advice!) - and this time we even managed to book the overnight tickets on time (well almost too late).
