What a lovely day i have just had in Bangkok. I decided to escape the hectic city centre and visit the floating market which was full of cheerful Thai women serving up lots of delicious fresh food.
I then hopped on a boat for a trip down the river and observed the population of Bangkok who live and work on the water. The houses are interesting and range from rudimentary to elaborately decorated structures, and although it seemed there was only basic infrastructure and is most probably a difficult way of life for these people, i enjoyed the terraces hanging over the water, the hammocks hanging from the trees and the children playing in the river. It was a refreshing to see a different side of this manic city.
