Day 462: To Ayutthaya

Traveling when sick is no fun, really. I had already booked accommodation in Ayutthaya for tonight, otherwise I would have stayed in my Bangkok bed all day. But instead, I dragged myself to the train station, onto the train to Ayutthaya (only two hours from Bangkok, luckily), and into my new hostel, where I promptly decided to spend the rest of the day... in bed.

This was one of the best moments of the day, actually - one of the best moments you get whenever you have a cold: after exerting yourself (in getting up to get a glass of water, if you're sensible, or in making a four-hour journey to a new city, if you're me), when you settle back down into a lying position - that feeling of relief, that's the best part of having a cold.
