The trip back into this metropolis went as smooth as silk. Our bus ride was uneventful and the drivers didn't try to swindle us out of money or take us to fake border crossings. There is a smorgasbord of problems associated with the border we used that include fully functional fake border offices and bus stations.

I was in Chatuchak market on the same day than you! Something I thought worth treating myself for is the Siam Niravit show. Check it out it's tourist stuff but I read good things.

I was charged 15 baht for the trip!
