To get a good dose of Thai life I went to the Prutnunam shopping area today. Situated in central Bangkok it spreads over several blocks. It is a warren of shops (think booths) selling mostly clothing. Aisles vary from 3 to 10 feet wide. Many shoppers come equipped with huge shopping bags on rollers. Aisle space is shared with deliveries on 2 wheel carts and occasional motorcycles also loaded down with merchandise. Navigating requires constant attention to the shoppers and the wheeled contrivances threatening feet and ankles
I am happy to report that I came out unscathed and filled my shopping quota for the foreseeable future. What did I buy? Well...nothing of course.
