8 girls, with very varied background and personalities decided to do a weekend in Bangkok together. It could have been complete mayhem, but turned out really awesome.
Arriving Friday night after a long busy week at work, we started out in a relaxed manner at Clouds, a cozy outdoor bar close to our service apartment. Sipping on fruity cocktails it felt GOOD to be on vacation in Thailand.
In no particular preference of order, we all decided that in 48 hours we should do Thai massage, shop at the market, go clubbing, eat a Thai tasting menu at a fancy restaurant, shop at a mall carrying local designer brands, discover some wicked bars, get a mani-pedi, try the pool, relax, ride a tuktuk, try the street food and the local ice-cream (yes, that last one was suggested by me). After that we figured we could just see what happens.

| Getting ready for clubbing. |
 |
| Tuktuk for two? Surely six of us can fit. |
 |
| Shopping at the market |
 |
| Local coconut ice-cream. YUM! |
 |
| We really reall really wanted to steel it. |
 |
| Successful shopping results |
 |
Got only a little bit tired towards the end...

All in all, Bangkok was fantastic! The fancy Thai dinner was incredible with exotic flavor bursts and creative combinations of known and unknown food. Clubbing was sweaty and sweet (free shots at the rooftop bar!). Thai massage was, well, it was painful and not exactly relaxing, but it was really really good. Mani-pedi, pool and relaxation was done at convenient time slots in between shopping and umbrella-drink sipping.
I'm allready excited about going back. Bangkok rocks!
