Back in 'New Town'

Mr. John Jolly Espy?

My friend and I tried this calamari at Viva on Soi 8.  This friend has lived in Bangkok 20+ years.  He knows the good spots.

After our meal, we took a shortcut over to Soi 4.  This hotel has been around a while.

The next stop was my idea: RedSquare Rooftop Bar.  It's at Novotel Bangkok Sukhumvit.

One thing I always try to do is is get to the rooftops about an hour before sunset.  I like fewer people and the skyline views.

I don't always drink a cocktail when I visit a rooftop bar in Bangkok.  Occasionally, it's a mocktail.  In this case, it's a couple of fruit shakes.

Since RedSquare is on Soi 4, afterwards, it was an easy walk down to Nana Plaza.  We just sat inside of bar (soi-side seats) and did some people-watching.  Nana is a wild and interesting place!

The King is everywhere!

And The Prince!

Counting my morning walk over in the Old Town, I got in around 8 miles on the day.
