Bangkok weekend market, cake and bed jumping!

We were up early ready to catch the bus to Bangkok, we found the bus station, got our tickets then went to a cafe over the road for breakfast.  The bus to Bangkok took two hours, the others slept, I, just for a change, did not.  When we arrived in Bangkok we jumped straight in to a cab and to the hotel (FX Hotel Makkasan) we had booked this before we left home, we had decided to book it so that we were close to the airport to catch our flight home the following morning.  It was by far the nicest place we'd stayed on the whole trip, it had a hair drier!!  We dumped our bags and set out to find the weekend market...we had some serious shopping to do!  We were sure where we were or where we were going so we hoped in a cab, the driver was lovely and told us all about the market.  We shopped unti lwe almost dropped!  I bought 3 handbags, 3 purses and allot of other stuff I didnt need!  When we were all shopped out we sat in a coffee shop and had iced drinks and cake, this was my first cake in 3 weeks, it was good!
Back at the hotel we showered and packed, ready for home.  I had some trouble fitting everythign into my 35 litre backpack, I had over done the shopping.  I decided that if I was going to take everythign I had bought home, I was going to have to wear all of my clothes on the plane.
When we were all packed, ready for home, we got into bed.  None of us could sleep, we were excited to be going home, we decided to get up and jump on our beds for a few minutes, this did the job and soon we were asleep.
