Final night in Bangkok/ final day at the HUGE Jatujak market

Sadly, this was our final day in Thailand. I knew that I was going to miss the Thai food, the many bargain markets, the beautiful flowers, and the wild animals very much! On our last day, we went to one of the biggest markets in the world! This market is only held on Saturdays, so we planned our trip around being here on that specific day to make the market. At this market, you could find anything!! Literally! They had any type of clothes….business, dressy, fashionable, boardshorts, etc., artwork…sculptures and paintings, lots of food, things for your house, Thai souvenirs, hand-painted shoes, tons of watches, jewelry, clocks, pottery goods, etc. Anything you could think of pretty much. Keith bought some boardshorts, while I found some summer dresses and we picked out some nice placemats and elephant coasters for our low table. At one of the markets, we met a whole family from Burma….all brothers and sisters about our age, who worked there selling Keith his boardshorts. They were very kind and also willing to give us a good deal because we bought so much and were so happy for the business. We also saw some entertainers on the streets around the huge market. ONe that stuck out, was a young boy who energetically danced around and played some type of unknown instrument Great music...listen to the video I took of him! After spending practically the whole day at the market (and we weren't even able to make it around the entire market..it was that big), we headed back to our guesthouse, where we were picked up by a bus to be brought with other tourists to the Bangkok airport. This completed our Thailand trip….but we’ll be back! Possibly in 2 winters we want to take another trip to see Southern Thailand, where we hope to island hop.
