Bangkok has taxis in all colors.
I thought the pink ones had an attitude and decided to travel in one.
On the last day of my tour, I thumbed one down to go to MBK. "Sorry no, I do not go MBK" the polite taxi driver tells me. I sent him off along his way and stood my ground waiting for another pink taxi to come my way. Finally, after a procession of taxis in all colors except pink, I managed to find a pink one.I threw my heavy backpack in and settled down. "MBK", I let the driver know my destination. "No MBK, please get down, No MBK, please get down" the driver chants. That was twice bitten and very bitter!
My leg was hurting from walking around for last 2 days and I quickly decided that I am going to get into the next available taxi, be it yellow, brown or blue! It turned out to be a Green & Yellow taxi.
Next time around, I am definitely trying my hand at Pink taxis again!!!
