Bangkok-Part 1 Family trouble

Back in Bangkok after what must be one of the easiest border crossings ever. Started off by being picked up in Siem Reap. This part was one of my main concerns since Dan and I couldn't exactly remember the name of the place where we stayed and was worried that the people we bought the bus ticket from were not going to figure it out. Anyways, we decided to believe in the system and hope for the best. No problem at all and we were picked up as planned. Pretty much driven around the block (if we had known we could've walked but think the secrecy is part of the scheme) to get on a bigger bus. First it was only semi-full but after we stopped a few times and more and more people got on we felt it was getting a bit optimistic with that many passengers. The final crisis eventually came when a family+boyfriend was getting on the bus. They all had about 4 bags each and other extra crap that they were lugging around. The 3 girls were obviously high maintenance with implants and the boyfriend was a cigarillo smoking dude and we knew there would be trouble. Needless to say all their luggage did not fit in the designated bagcompartments and 20 minutes later it was decided that it would be stored in the aisle of the bus, not without more whinging from the family of course. One girl kept complaining that no one had asked her how she was doing since her overhead fan was broken. Please get over yourself sweetheart!!! The trip to the border took about 3 hours and then we were slowly pushed through the immigration process to enter Thailand. On the other side there were minivans which would be taking us to Bangkok. These were nice new vans and Dan and I thought it was fine. We had only been told that there would be a second bus but not specifically what kind of bus. Unfortunately, we ended up with the family. Argh!!!! It was quite amusing since they kept thinking that we were being transfered to another bigger luxury double-decker bus with toilet!! Dan and I made a bet to see how long it would take for them before they realized. Think it took 30 minutes and then all hell broke loose. The dad flipped out and threw some bags around (while the driver was driving at 100km/hr) and the mum kept threatening with the tourist police. The emotions were running high and as we stopped at a petrolstation to refuel the entire family was hassling the driver. We had been asked to step out of the vehicle due to explosion risk, but the boyfriend douche got out and started smoking!!!! Good one indeed!
Rest of the trip was more complaining and 4 hrs has never felt so long before! Dan and I pretty much bolted in the opposite direction as soon as we got to Bangkok.
