Hi, in same situation like you (BKK newbie, but 38 days to go

) perhaps this link is interesting for you
click. German Beer Garden is mentioned there too and so itīs also on my planning (even if I donīt want to meet any germans there)
Or
this one, check the links on this site. Maybe it was there I found a report of a guy who was not robbed by a FL cause he couldnīt sleep... I like the idea of girlīs ID beeing checked (better coppied) by the hotel receptionist. Would feel better with my brand new cam which canīt be deposited in the safe during the night (itīs needed

)
Good luck and donīt forget to post your experiences here.
Peter
