Flights

Pleasant 55-minute flight from Melbourne to Sydney to link up with the plane to Bangkok which t0ok about 8 1/2 hours. Time to watch four movies on Qantas's excellent inflight entertainment programme. Still plenty to choose from when we do the rest of the flight home to London early on Friday morning.


Landed at Suvarnabhumi Airport which is only a couple of years old and is state of the art (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suvarnabhumi_Airport)

Magnificent building, though currently more noted for the political demo which closed it for a week or so late last year. Hotel taxi whisked us the Courtyard Marriott where we are staying in rather a nice room (pictured). No bath though but outdoor swimming pool is some compensation. Dave
