Last Days in Bangkok - The Fortune Teller on Sukumvit Street

With less than a day to go before leaving Bangkok, I decided to heads out and explore a different part of Bangkok. Settling on visiting a main street, I decided to take a taxi down to Sukumvit Street and it was a horrific experience.

It was nothing but people hawking, and harassing you to buy, overpriced bootleg products. Karaoke bars selling beers for twice the price than anywhere else in Bangkok, being advertized by legions of tired looking whores and hostesses.

What was missing were the smells that I have come to associate with Bangkok, the stands selling the huge variety of barbecued and fried foods that assault the sense and stimulate the stomach.

I luckily got the hell out of there before the monsoon hit.

The Fortune Teller

This Indian Gentleman accosted me on Sukumvit and proceeded to scam me out of 100 baht, but he did it beautifully and his spiel was well worth the price.

He was about to tell me the name of my greatest enemy, the person in the world who is supposed to be trying to kill me.
