Back to Bangkok - posted from Yacht Haven, Phuket

The bus from Ayutthaya to Bangkok is airconditioned and takes about 1 1/2 hours.  You end up at the northern bus station from where you must take a tuk-tuk or taxi to the Skytrain station some 2 km away.  The tuk-tuk fare for this 2 km is, after haggling, the same as the bus fare for the previous 80 km.
We are in plenty of time to check into the hotel and to get to the Myanmar embassy at 1530 to pick up passports, which we have by 1531.  The rest of the day is spent relaxing after the travelling exertions.

Pak Khlong flower market
Our last day was OMCTG's day off and what to  visit on our last day is solved by a couple we meet in the Eat Me restaurant where we dined.  They suggest the vast weekend market at Chutuchak, followed by the flower market at Pak Khlong.
These suggestions are taken up and despite the size of the place we meet our advisors by chance at one of the coffee houses in Chatuchak market.
