Our Last Night in Bangkok

During our last day in Bangkok the street where our hotel was set itself up as a large night market. We had already reserved a restaurant for dinner but we did have a look at what was on offer. There was also entertainment which we saw before and after dinner. Herewith a few pictures. 

These two musicians were playing together facing each other. 

Nibbles. 

Sushi. You can't escape it. 

When was the last time you had quail eggs?

We ate at the same restaurant that we had on Christmas Day. Our first course was an appetizer of shrimp toasts. 

Our main course dishes were delicious too. 

This is beef 

Stir-fried vegetables with shrimp. 

Chicken with cashews - always a favourite. It's our fall back if nothing else appeals. 

The shrimp dish had butterfly shaped carrots.

We didn't have fish, but walked by a small pool with these koi.

And then we found more entertainment at the fort near our hotel - a demonstration of martial arts. These were incredibly well choreographed which was a good thing. Otherwise I'm sure there would have been blood. These fights were fast and furious. Everyone survived. 

These young women were fighting with sickles. 

And of course there was Muay Thai - Thai style kick-boxing. 

We were exhausted after watching such energetic fighting. Time to go back to our hotel
