The Infamous Traffic of Bangkok

I arrived Bangkok on Tuesday night as The Customer called for an emergency meeting. As usual, I go to the taxi queue to go to my hotel. The ride should not be more than 15 mins. My taxi driver thought I was going to the hotel with the same name downtown. So when we passed the hotel, I pointed to him that this is the hotel I want to go. He apologise and get of the next turn. It was raining and the traffic on the opposite direction is heavy. Heavy would be an understatement. It is almost standstill. To travel back the length of one exit of the highway took us more than an hour. It is incredible. I was trying to calm myself down with yoga breathing exercise. I was exhausted by the time we reached my hotel.
