BANGKOK
places we thought we'd have a very chilled day, we paid extra to get the room until 7.00 p.m. as we didn't fly until 11 p.m. The traffic is just too horrendous for sightseeing unless you’re a fan of traffic fumes. We'd driven past the Red Fort on numerous occasions the night before and the Lotus Temple which we had wanted to go to took at least an hour and a half to get to even thought it was only 25 km away!
We got to Delhi airport expecting a fairly decent airport, maybe a few good duty free shops, but oh no! I have to say it was probably the worst airport I have ever been too. It was crap, it resembled Liverpool Airport before it was done up, the only difference being it was a lot bigger! The duty free shops were rubbish and expensive! You were talking 8 quid for a toblerone so we ended up sitting playing cards for the vast majority of the time and very much looking forward to Th

Our flight was an overnighter via Kuala Lumpur with a 10 a.m. transfer to Bangkok. We were flying with Malaysia Airlines so were expecting quite a good flight! The staff were very friendly but the seats were fairly knackered, so it wasn't particularly comfy, although we did get free drinks and food so couldn't complain too much! We didn't get much sleep if any, so were feeling pretty tired when we arrived in Kuala Lumpur, but hurray this airport was good! It was clean and had a decent selection of things to keep you occupied! We ended up buying a Samsonite day-sack as our Norway bag was well and truly past its best and we hope that it will be worth the money! We also managed to get a Rough Guide to Southeast Asia which was quite a relief, although we had some great notes from Noah they were only scribbled onto a piece of A4!
