Bangkok 3D/2N Trip Day 2 - Chao Phraya Express Boat Ride

We have been to Bangkok so many times in recent years but have not been to the Grand Palace before. Hubby went there when he was a student. That was many years ago. Decided to take the Chao Phraya Express Boat to the Grand Palace. We need to take the BTS to Saphan Taksin Station where the Boat Pier was.
