It did look like water has gone down a little bit as compared to when Silver Bullet visited it just a few days earlier, but to me, the entire place still looked bad over the weekend. Water was everywhere...and as far as the eye can see.
What used to be a truly busy area and almost always in gridlocked at any time of the day became deserted and quiet. It felt surreal, and I almost did not believe that this was Bangkok.
I hope the ordeal will be over for the flood victims soon.
I could smell the water from outside as we approached this entrance @ Lard Phrao MRT |
Just right outside the MRT station |
A car being cleverly perched up at one of the intersections |
Commuters cross to the other side of the road |
Ratchada-Lard Phrao Intersection - water level was much higher mid last week |
Water to infinity... |
Boat men ready to take passengers... |
The occasional motorbikes passing through |
The occasional trucks passing through |
While it seemed like water was receding..it gets deeper further down |
A commuter changing to water-proof attire as he walked out of the MRT station |
Boots seller on the elevated bridge |
