One Night in Bangkok
So we were all tranquil and could have easily passed out from the total relaxation of the Thai massage we had just gotten, and what do we decide to do with that calm state -- we get ready to go out on the town in Bangkok. That is certainly the quickest way to kill a soothing state.
The Sukhimvit area where we are staying is out of control when it comes to night life. There actually appears to be more going on at night in this area then during the day. From the hot trendy bars, to the international restaurants, to the bustling street vendors, and mostly the masses of ladies of the night crawling all over the place, this area was utter chaos. Add into the mix your random elephant here and there walking down the street, and you have a full fledged circus.
We had to do our part to take advantage of all this insanity, since we would only have one night in Bangkok (we’re so ready to get out of this place even after just one day). Let’s just say we ate it up, drank it up, mingled with the locals, fed an elephant, and even got a 1am massage. The hour long foot reflexology and back massage session seriously hit the spot at that point in the night, and for only $8!!!! Jason’s massage experience was definitely different – let’s just say he had to set some boundaries with his masseuse, and ended his whole experience early!
Although we were in desperate search of our late night doner kabob tradition to help ease the pain of all the festivities of the night, we had to settle for a 2am Subway sandwich. We were definitely done with Bangkok for that night, and it will probably be a long time before we hit up this very unique town again!

The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
You'll find a god in every golden cloister
A little flesh, a little history
I can feel an angel sliding up to me
One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
Not much between despair and ecstasy
One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
Can't be too careful with your company
I can feel the devil walking next to me.
