8 Days and Nights in Bangkok

While we were in Bangkok, we visited a very impressive aquarium called Siam Ocean World. They have several levels below ground that are filled with fish from all over the world(as most aquariums do : ) ). We saw Grey Nurse sharks, Sand Tiger sharks, Leopard sharks, Manta rays, Otters, Beavers, Penguins, all types of tropical and colourful fish, and some Spider Crabs, which look like creatures from a horror film!

We also watched The Dark Knight in IMAX. This is the first feature film to be shot as an IMAX picture, so it is worth the effort.

For most of our trip throughout Thailand, we had been spending our time at the lower end of the hotel scale, and Harriet wisely suggested that we should upgrade to some luxury to end it. Our last few days were spent in a 4 star hotel called the Davis. We swam in the pool, enjoyed the enormous buffet breakfast, and lounged on the large bed. It was just the thing that we needed to complete our trip.

We boarded our plane for Melbourne at nighttime, and arrived into Melbourne the following morning, where my father was there to pick us up.
