Grand Palace and China town

Place we visited: Grand Palace
Wat Pho,
China Town - Seafood,
Victory Monument Station - Seafood restaurant,
Khao San rd. - shopping and beer
The temperature in Bangkok is 38-40 Celsius (103 Fahrenheit) degree with humidity everyday... It's just crazy hot. Our bodies are clearly not understanding what resulted in this punishment, and retaliate by seating profusely. To put things in perspective, I drink about 4-5 liters of water/beer and urinated just once before going to sleep.
Grand Palace was amazing beautiful. There is a strict dress code for visiting there, visitors must be properly dressed to be allowed entry to the temple. Visitors must wear long pants and shirts with sleeves - no tank tops. This is why Alex is wearing ugly purple pants....
Yumi's fiends, Yukako and Murai-kun who live in Bangkok took us to a good Seafood restaurant today too.... Alex is crazy about Thai Seafood everyday. Delicious and cheap.... We ordered 6 dished: grilled shrimp (each the size of a lobster), sea food soup, two squid dishes, shrimp cake and a salad. Fantastic!!. Total cost was about $10/person.....Beat that :)
And we are enjoying Singha Beer everyday (^^)
