Day 64, in which we ditch Auckland for the Big City

Today I got back seven of the hours which were stolen from my birthday in the time difference by travelling to Japan, but sadly I still just spent them sitting on an aeroplane. We boarded a plane in Auckland at 3pm and didn't stop travelling until we arrived at the five-star Hotel Lebua in Bangkok fourteen hours later (well, apart from a pit-stop in Sydney where we had a glass of water).

I'd expected Thailand to be a relatively poor country, but standing on the balcony leading out from our suite on the 57th floor of the State Tower it's hard to make out any poverty at all.
