4Th Day Exploring the Hustling Market of Pratunam Bangkok Largest Market

Blessings,

I was reading it takes 1 day per time zone to recover from jetlag so i made the math and i crossed 12 time zones so still have a few more days to recover my circadian rhythms going..




Today was a more of a chill day i woke up @ 3am last night and couldn't go back to sleep until 8am this morning and woke up @ 11am and rushed into the streets into the Pratunam Market which is Bangkok's largest whole sale market on quest for some gear and curiosities.

The Area is pretty high tech with mixed of old asian 80s architecture and some nice buildings mixed with stands inside and outside the streets..
not much to say about the market other than there is nothing but western style clothing like the one america and its allies tell the people how to dress so everybody comes to get their latest polo t shirt and brand name fake brand copy made in china..
i was hoping to find some nice authentic tribal clothing from thailand but just kept getting walled by all the nonsense clothing so i just figured if i mean to have what i need i will so instad of walking with frustration looking for things i was just checking things out more chilled without expectation just flowing and drinking a coco juice..

i was in the need of cold gear since i will be in the himalayan mountains of india next week and didnt bring any protection sincei knew i would just get some new stuff while i was there so actually my backpack is completely empty..





Grabbed lunch and got home right after today's day is filled with details but i wont get into them too tired to write now.. but i found this two taxi drivers that both had the big finger nail long weird paradigm i documented them..














i was also stuck in traffic today for 1 hour but i was able to snap a few pics along the way










Dream Mode ON
