Visiting Thailand for Ingress Event

I decided to take a trip to Bangkok Thailand to support the Abaddon anomaly series for Ingress. It was a rather hasty decision, but seeing that my new job would be starting in late November, there was no better time to unwind.

My fellow Ingress agents took care of most of the details of the holiday. Dominic booked return air tickets with AirAsia.com for a low price of $150. (An additional $23.80 for travel insurance.) Alisa got us cheap accommodations at Red Planet Asok for 600 THB per pax per night. Over the course of 3 days, I spent approximately 4000 THB ($160).

Game-wise, we were meeting up for farms and cluster walks. It was tiring, but walking the grounds was important to familiarise oneself with the new surroundings. Moving between places was made easier with the skytrain/ MRT. Note to self: If you're staying in Bangkok for an extended period of time, get the multi-use rabbit card. Otherwise, we'd be exchanging coins to purchase single use tickets all the time.
