Going out with a bang!

Today was our last day in Bangkok.  In case we don't make it back to this city again, we did our best to revisit some of our favorite things one last time...
  • Soymilk cappuccinos from a frequently visited street-side coffee stand (we provide our own soymilk).
  • Fresh fruit du jour from the market on On Nut Rd (today was durian, pineapple, and bananas).
  • Omelettes with hot sauce on rice from the Tesco across the street (the egg lady seems to have disappeared).
  • A trip up Sukhumvit on the local bus (open-air bus in one direction and A/C bus in the other direction).
  • One last swim workout in the 25 meter pool at Benjasiri Park.
  • Freshly-squeezed pomegranate juice from a street vendor just south of the park.
  • Strolled down Sukhumvit Road.
  • One hour-long massage each (Todd had an herbal massage, and I had a traditional Thai massage - both of which were awesome).
  • A smorgasbord of street vendorThai food for dinner:  crab cake, pad thai, fried mix vegetable salad with shrimp, mystery meat summer roll, etc.
  • Our last bottles of Thai beer (we splurged on Leo today, but typically we've been consuming Chang).
