I had been looking forward to this trip since last year.
I had never bought so many things in just 4 days, not even during my previous trip to China.
Day 1:
At Bangkok's airport with Angelia
Missing Karen was taking the photo for us
Standing beside Karen made me look even fatter -_-"
We were staying at Twin Tower Hotel.The room was spacious & clean!
Nice bathroom with a great bathtub.I had onsen (hot spring) twice in that bathtub, hee hee.
Lobby & reception of Twin Tower .The staff had poor command of English.
One of them couldn't explain "opposite" & had to draw a picture to explain. By the way, it is a four stars hotel.
Isn't it beautiful?
In order to save money for more useful purposes, we took a tuk-tuk.Ha ha, yes!!! Six of us in a small tuk-tuk!!!
It was such an unforgettable experience!
Our memorial photo of the exciting tuk-tuk ride.Day 2:
On the second day, we spent most of our time in this cheap market
- The Chatuchak Weekend Market.
The weather was hot & the market was stuffy!
Couldn't remember how much water we drank & luckily we brought some on our own.
To cool ourselves, we went for a cooling ice grass jelly dessert!
The brown topping was brown sugar actually & they eventually ended up in the dustbin.
The hot & stuffy but cheap Chatuchak market.
I love this section of the market.The animal's section!!!
This poor rabbit was caged in a small caged which it barely can move.
Sobs...Sobs...
They were made to wear clothes in addition to their fur, the heat is killing them...I guess.
Cruelty!
Cruelty!
So many cute puppies for sale!However, I discovered that some of the owners were very rough in handling their puppies.
Poor puppies...
Isn't this puppy cute!!!I can't remember the exact name of this breed but I always
call this breed "Jian Gou" due to one of the anime I used to watch had this type of dog.
Sleepy puppies...ZzzzAfter a tired day at Chatuchak, We went to experience the Thai massage & foot reflexology.
It was not too bad.
We walked away without giving tips! Ha ha
We shopped almost the whole day at Platinum.Didn't even have time for Pratunum Centre.
Saw the busy road? Scary!
Kinda like this candid shot of Karen.Opps! Will she scold me when she saw I posted this?
Isetan! Made me feel like I'm back in Singapore when I stepped in.
We bought so many things in the NaRaYa's Boutique in there.
We bought so many things in the NaRaYa's Boutique in there.
A group photo which I asked a tourist to help us to take.Hmmm...too tiny, isn't it?
We had a slightly more expensive meal to reward ourselves atJim Thompson.
The ambience was not too bad.
Nicely decorated coconut drink.Cooling ~~!
My food!I couldn't remember its name.
This is what Clairer ate.Ha ha.. I couldn't remember its name either
This is Pat Thai.Not too bad but still not better than the Pat Thai we ordered from room service.
Tiramisu!!!Yummy!!!
Apple tart if I'm not wrong.We chose a tart with more filling but the waitress insisted that this was the one we pointed.
Useless to argue with her.
Hmmm... I'm getting older & older each day.Brain cells died faster these days.
Memory cells too.
I really couldn't remember what its name.
SORRY!!
However.....
I remember.....
it is
YUMMY!!!
Day 4:
Very busy day! No time to take photos at all.
We had our schedule tightly planned.
Early in the morning after breakfast, we went to do last minute shopping at MBK.
Bought big bag of goodies, most of them were pork floss.
After that we went straight back to hotel to pack & check out.
However, due to some unforeseen circumstances, we were being delayed from our plan.
The reception had checked us out despite we had requested late check out. My friends had to ran down to the reception there to reactivate the access cards of our rooms.
Time wasted!!!
My door card access machine ran out of batteries!!!
I believe not many people will encounter this kind of situation!!!
Not many people know the machine uses batteries too!!!!!
Time wasted again!!!
By the time we packed and checked out, we were already late for our 2nd massage's appointment!
Leading to the massage ended later than we had planned & we had to get back to the airport to catch the airport transfer.
We waited for quite some time & finally we caught hold of a cab but unfortunately we were stucked in the traffic jam!
The traffic wasn't moving at all!!!
We missed the airport transfer, had to pay for the delay & cab fare straight to the airport, late check in leading to separate seatings.
The worst thing was, I was arranged to sit with ABN in front, beside and behind of me!!!
I'm very sensitive to the smell & the one behind kept pulling my hair!
IRRITATING!!!!!
Luckily, it was only a two hour flight or else I will go crazy.
Nevertheless, it was quite a fun but tiring trip.
A very good place to shop indeed!
