I recommend you just hop in a taxi - they're really not that expensive and then you won't waste too much time faffing about. <BR><BR>Sorry, can't help you with opening times - I've only been in the mornings!

You could take the Skytrain to Taksin and then a express river ferry to the Grand Palace and walk from there. If you just want a massage, you can probably get one at or near your hotel. A taxi might take an hour, depending on traffic.

I'd also take the SkyTrain to Taksin, and catch the River Express boat from there. If you get off at Tha Thien pier then you'll come out right in front of Wat Pho. <BR><BR><BR>______________________________________ _<BR>My Travelogue and Photos<BR>http://www.bangor.ac.uk/~fos007/fb2b.htm<BR>Bangkok,Ayutthya,Chiang Rai,Krabi,PhiPhi<BR>
