Thai Trip Report #2

Jun

When I arrived in Bangkok, I went straight from the airport to Hua Lamphong Train Station & bought a ticket for the overnight train to Chiang-Mai, which is in the far north of Thailand.

I have caught this train many times & I really enjoy using it, though I prefer a lower berth (this time I had to take an upper berth [bed] which you can see is a little cramped [no space]).

It`s a very interesting & relaxing way to travel. It`s also very cheap - about 2,200 yen (=$25) for the 13-hour journey (2nd class sleeper).

What is the seal on the lid of the bottle? I cannot understand the letters printed on the seal. In the next photo, you seem to be in the bathtub with the cookies in your hand. Don't you think so?

The bottle is Thai whisky. Strong alcohol in Thailand always has this paper seal on the top - it`s a kind of government rule.
I`m not in the bath! It`s my train bed (near the ceiling), & I was eating potato chips, not cookies. Tastes good with whisky & cola...
