Last day in Bangkok, waiting for the boarding time and the check in counters to open. I had fun in Bangkok even at a limited time. It was a challenge for me since it is my first time and my mom depends on me, plus only few locals speak English, a big communication barrier but somehow I was able to manage. Phew! Happy and contented. I'll definitely go back in this place.

Bangkok Diaries Day 4.3
This is the last tourist attraction that we visited for Day 4. It was raining that day so there was no available tram to tour us around plus there are only few tourists who went there since it's a bit far from the city. We took a cab and good thing the cab driver knew the place. The admission fee for the foreigners differ from the locals. For tourists admission fee costs 100 baht but for locals it only costs around 20-50 baht I guess. Most of the pictures you see are not real animals, though I have a lot of pictures for the real ones but I prefer the statue since some of the animals are inside their cage or hiding somewhere. Anyways, I can't post all of the pics because it will only bore you. Have fun! End of Day 4
Bangkok Diaries Day 4
Our day 4 itinerary includes temple visit. Grand Palace, Wat Pho and other temple is what we aim to visit to complete this Bangkok trip. They are known for their temples and buddha's especially for the ancient Thai's. We walked from Jakrapong road to the Grand Palace, it will take about 10-20 mins. it depends on how fast you walk. As for me and my mom, we had few pauses in between because we have to take pictures once in a while of the breathtaking view Bangkok has to offer.
First stop: Grand Palace. If you've been to Bangkok, every establishment or tourist attraction, they have different rates for foreigners and locals. For example, if you will go to Grand Palace, if you are a Thai you will only pay if I'm not mistaken, 100baht but if you are a foreigner, you have to pay 400 for the admission fee. Call it unfair but I think this is how they earn money and their economy. Anyways, Grand Palace entrance fee is 400 baht. For first timers, I suggest, be cautious with your things, there are pick pockets so be very careful with your stuff everywhere you go. If someone will approach you and tell you that the temple is close, oh please don't be fooled by such trick because the temple is open every day. You can do intensive research first before going to the place so as not to be fooled by scam.
Will post more photos for Day 4!!
