Today is the day we go to see Ajahn Pinsinchai big fighter "Tipsootin" (you saw him in Chapter 1) fight for the Stadium Championship at one of Thailand's top Muay Thai Stadiums.
We had the honour of being there, ringside...quite amazing experience. Do not miss Part 3 (below) for a true Muay Thai experience. We had a great trip in the cab - watch for a cab's eye view of Bangkok and remember...

CHAPTER 2 - BANGKOK STORIES
A video of us finding a gold mine of Pork Skewers and Sticky Rice... we bought 18 Skewers!! So delicious. This is just across the street from Ratchadamnoen stadium (Thailand's #2 Muay Thai Stadium). It was Family Day so they had a huge festival going on. We then paid a visit to Lumpinee Stadium (Thailand #1 Muay Thai Stadium) but all just for shopping that day.
