MBK and the Thai economy

Ok. That was interesting. Sharon and I had arranged to meet at a specific coffee shop at the base of the massive MBK at midday after our individual shopping sessions. I got there right on time, so did Sharon ... only she went to the wrong shop... the one at the opposite end of the shopping centre! ... we each waited  for each other for nearly 30 mins. LOL.
After stressing and wondering what may have happened to her I decided that the most likely conclusion  was that she went to the wrong end of the plaza...and lo and be hold there she was. It was a bit of a scare tho, and a little lesson to us :-)

Further I confirm that Sharon was indeed armed with a huge volume of shopping that has proven to serve the Thai economy well for many generations.

We had an amazing lunch of a Laksa OMG OMG and another OMG. I asked for extra hot chilli and I got it. Im expecting i'll be seeing that lunch again soon in the 'high tide' hotel loo :-)




Trying to exit the plaza, having only bought a couple of things Sharon cornered me and forced me under extreme pressure to spend up big on clothes....uggh. Another train carriage was added to the train for all of our shopping and we headed back for a swim at the hotel.

Dinner tonight at a street food place then catch a tuk tuk to have a laugh at Soi Cowboy.
