We woke up at lunch time and rang Paul (who was in the opposite side of the hotel) to see if he wanted to go for a rooftop swim in the pool before brunch. The pool was freezing cold but it was nice to cool down. We had a shower and washed off the chlorine. Once we were changed Paul knocked on the door ready to go out.
Bangkok was very busy and extremely hot. We got a taxi and went to an English bar/restaurant. There were lots of fumes from other cars and tuk tuk.
The bar/restaurant had lots of TVs up on the wall showing different sports on each one. I had a spaghetti Bolognese but everyone else had a English breakfast. We played some pool while our dinner went down. Paul, Dad, Mum and Fin felt up for a massage. So I decided that I would have a pedicure. We payed our bill and headed down a street to get a massage.
We turned right and went down a little alley way and found a women who said that she would get us a massage for a good price. We followed her to the place. It was quite a small massaging area and we had to take off our shoes before entering. Fin, Dad and Mum wanted a oil massage so they had to leave us and go into separate rooms. I was left with Uncle Paul to keep an eye on me. Paul and I Went into a room which had two chairs, one bed and lots of nail varnishes.
We sat down in the two chairs and Paul put his feet up ready for his massage and I put my feet down into a bowl full of warm water. I picked a light blue nail varnish. Paul asked the two women if they had drinks but they didn’t have any in the room. He sent one of the women to get us drinks from seven eleven! In the meantime Paul and I took a selfie which he sent to one of my uncles. Once the women (who had left to get the drinks) had got back she carried on with Paul’s massage but after about twenty minutes she had disappeared again to get Paul another drink! Once the lady had finished doing my nails Paul said that I could have the rest of his massage. The massage was incredible although I nevet thought I would like one. While the women was finishing up on me Mum, Dad and Fin came in. Once Paul told them what he had done they all burst out in laughter. We payed the women and left. We went straight back to the hotel as the massage made everyone very tired.
It was very nice seeing my uncle again and it was kind of him to give me the rest of his massage.
