They had some really neat magnets here... not just your typical-run-of-the-mill junk, but the shop owner wasn't a big fan of bargaining apparently! I did buy two magnets and Bro. Gary bought six:o).
Because we got to the market around 10ish, the crowd was very light and the weather wasn't too bad... by 12:30 it was hot and crowded, so we got out of there! It was worth waking up early on a Saturday morning to go shopping!
Once we were done with Chatuchak, we went to Baiyoke Hotel, which is the tallest building in Thailand... the view was very neat and we even got to go on a rotating track that took us all around the outside of the building at the top...
I was pretty impressed with the size of this city.... we could see all the way to the horizon with no end in sight!

The breeze felt sooo wonderful on our faces... let me tell ya: there's nothing "breezy" about Thailand! This was the first time I was outside that I wasn't really hot, so I guess having our heads in the clouds this time was a good thing;o).

Wow, you were really high up. I felt my head swimming just looking at the picture...not really. But it was definitely high. Looks like you had a great time. So what is the exchange rate for 1000 baht?

It was pretty high Kristi:o). 1000 baht is about $30.00... depending on the day of course;o).
When we lived in Germany the rate, of course, changed everyday. Of course, the numbers were a lot closer together. LOL Thanks for the lesson in bahts. :)
