Did I mention walking the sidewalks of Bangkok can be dangerous?

And here is why. On either side of the walkway there are food vendors, merchants, and you guessed it motorcycle taxi drivers waiting for anyone, carrying anything to hop on the back and off down the street for a few Baht (Thai currency).













Today was a quiet Saturday in Bangkok. The weather was again exceptionally cool. Not many
people out on the street when I took these pictures, but I'm sure you can only imagine what it is like during normal weekdays. Vendors, people walking and Motorcycle taxis on both sides of the walk.

And guess what. The center lane is reserved for bicycles and of course Motorcycles. Yes, that's right. They drive on the sidewalks.
Amazing Thailand
