Some detours (enter expressway at Nang Linchi, pass Wat Bua Kwan, exit west of Immigration). I had to wait 10:57-13:42 (including lunch break 12-13) to hand my documents in, then 13:48-14:37 to get passport back. There were 33 people ahead of me. New opening times: 8:30-16:30. New rules: no shorts, no flip flops. I was wearing shorts and flip-flops, and so did many others, no problem. But will dress properly next time. Once again, my address was scrutinized and on another counter officer asked customer to show exact location and name on googlemaps on her (officer’s) mobile phone.<br />ChristianPFChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14308749125539367002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8304897538463565568.post-81976991862092047052014-12-14T12:09:28.319+07:002014-12-14T12:09:28.319+07:00That's what I said (BTS, bus 52, walk), with s...That's what I said (BTS, bus 52, walk), with some more words. The other bus lines is additional information, proving that there is no direct connection to Lumpini park.ChristianPFChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14308749125539367002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8304897538463565568.post-31320862455446761962014-12-12T14:59:05.764+07:002014-12-12T14:59:05.764+07:00I must say you certainly go out of your way to con...I must say you certainly go out of your way to confuse people.<br />Went to immigration this morning.<br />BTS to Mor Chit. Bus 52 to immigration. Walk 10 minutes because it was a nice morning and there was no rush.<br />Why do you always have to make everything seem 100 times harder than it is ?<br />Sure I could take bus number 155,105,555 etc etc from here there and everywhere. But like most people I look for the most direct route and don't really want to spend 2 hours stuck on a bus in the center of Bangkok.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8304897538463565568.post-17268997266729518362014-12-12T13:33:32.104+07:002014-12-12T13:33:32.104+07:0066 is of no use to most people, it runs via north ...66 is of no use to most people, it runs via north Samsen rd (Not near KhaoSarn) via Thonburi bridge, and then most end at old Sai thai, lots of jams around.<br />505 has only a very few trips mo-fr that serve this centre, it ends Pak Kred, so its quite a distance from there.<br />Also bus 356 (NOT BMTA) and 150 run past on Chaeng wattana rd.<br />Can also take normal train to near your old home-Laksi station, its not that far from there. Admire how they now start works for a new skytrain/railway there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
