Into the new year....

We entered the new year in Bangkok via Insomnia Nightclub on Sukhumvit Soi 12. The club is a well known after hours club that caters to travelers and locals alike. The club actually stayed ope until 10 am in the morning with the very determined to stay till close. When the lights came on people poured out into the streets and were welcome by the intense glow of the morning sun. 

I will mention this that traffic was the highest I have seen all year however still very low compared to years in the past for high season. The final week of the year is usually the busiest time of the year. This year was determined to be different with the tragic flooding around the city and the general unstable situation in Bangkok I am afraid people decided to go elsewhere for there holiday travels. Next major holiday will be the Songkran holiday that falls on a weekend this year so it should demand a good turn out.
