Bangkok Trip!!~  Decide to use this pic as....our breakfast and lunch is always pathetic! Although we seriously bought alot to pamper ourselves..=P... This will be a full detailed report of our stay at BKK...skip to "Overall" if you find it lengthy...=) Day 1...(Thursday) We went to work as usual for the first half of the day and we proceed to the airport at about 1..We went to have Popeye at Term 2...Love it to max...Cindy's friends came to see her off..I'm actually quite shock when she told me beforehand..LOL..ok..her friends are rather funny..LOL.. we proceed to budget terminal and checked in...I checked everything except of my contact lens solution which is supposed to be a traveling kit...To my surprise..I'm stopped to have a full check on my bag...=.=... it's 120ML..I'm like so shocked...I ended up purchasing another bottle within the terminal.. We were quite excited as we can see the planes up close..=)..This is my first time taking plane from budget terminal and the interior looks super like a haunted hospital..=.=...I think it would be scarier at night.. We board the plane with a external ladder..Looks super like personal jet..=P Having mixed feeling at the moment..AS..Seriously..I don't even dare to think that it's only the both of us going and 2 ladies only somemore..Afraid that will be cheated as expected by many people...Somemore..It's Cindy's first time..so kind of stress..LOL...Didn't hold on to that thought for long..After we arrived.. First obstacle..We can't find the exit..that's super hilarious..we had to ask someone where is the exit to get out of check-in area..LOL...is not that we can't read signs or follow people..Is everyone is waiting for their baggages..while we are the first few to walk out.. Next obstacle..We can't find our cab driver..or the hotel transfer guy..I didn't even print out the e-mail they sent..Panic somehow..We asked someone from the airport to help call our hotel to verify again..Lucky..We manage to find our name displayed eventually..That dumb guy stood at an area which is so not obvious..LOL So finally..Our hotel transfer arrives..SUPER COOLL..its toyota CAMRY!..Just imagine.. so luxurious etc..LOL.. Hotel..Receptionist etc are super good..Saw a few people there that are half transformed..Somehow..i find them adorable..LOL..as they are super gentle and man at the same time..gentle + man = gentleman..ok lame... we are supposed to stay at the eight floor but! due to some error...We are transferred to the third floor..ARGH..the hotel room is kind of disappointing..As almost every single wall looks fake..and I can even hear the next room's phone ringing etc..-.-..But overall..its still okay...=/ .. We left our backpack in the room and lock everything up and proceed to Suan Lom..Hotel receptionist are again super friendly..They told us the average cab fare so that we can bargain it appropriately, we proceed on to our first stop of night market~ The stuffs doesn't fascinate us initially..But after we proceed further..everything seems to wow us more! Just feel like buying everything..But some are set at a super costly price..=(...We only went back to hotel around 1 plus...and we didn't have our dinner at all!~ we ordered the room service as requested by Cindy..LOL..the food are okay...~~..that's the end of our first day.. We somehow planned for the activities for the next day and went to bed... Dreamless night~Love it Day 2(Friday) Woke up quite early... prep ourselves up and we went down to siam square..we took the free van service to siam discovery and walked to siam square..Cindy kept complain hungry and we can't find any food restaurant or stalls that sells proper meal..so we ended up having roadside stalls.. We had the sweet potato..The person is so good that she let us try the food first and it's great!..We bought 1 packet and share..She even gave us more..how good..it cost less than 1 buck i think..LOL.. we bought pepsi crushed ice as we didn't get a drink..and that's when I fall in love with it!It's so so so different from the normal ice drink we had in SG!I love it alot!!~~...Enjoyed it totally... We went to walked around and surprisingly..Most of the stores in the building are the same..~ I remembered the slippers shop, the tee-shop and the mani/pedi shop..I went back to the same place to purchase all the items and we did mani and pedi at the same shop i went previously..~ the standard this time round isn't that good althought my manicurist is a guy[i seriously doubt his skills initially..LOL]... We shouldn't do it so soon..as it's damaged...We went shopping immediately and didn't wait for it to dry completely...=)..We had our lunch at Noodle House and it's yummy!~... It started to drizzle close to evening time...We decide to proceed to MBK to walk around..We had our Full thai massage..and it's a cool experience~..I only had foot massage previously..We are bend all over and kept giving that super painful expression...The "ah ma" super strong manz!!~~...she elbowed almost every part of my body..I even have blue black on my thigh the next day...=.=..LOL..enjoyed it totally.. We bought clothes to wear before hand so that we can dress up when we go for the buffet session..We shopped til about 6 and decide to head back hotel to doll up ourselves...Unexpectedly... We couldn't hail a cab back!~~~ We walked around..from MBK to Siam paragon...and we decided to have our dinner at paragon and go for the buffect session the next day...We had ramen...which is so not thai food...and its ultra COSTLY! After dinner..The rain didn't stop at all..=.=.We then again..decid to walk towards the direction of our hotel and see if we can hail a cab or tuk tuk mid way...It's a super long journey..We stopped to buy some naraya stuffs and continued walking.. you all must be thinking..how do we know where is our hotel? Our hotel is the sister of the prominent tallest Baiyoke Sky hotel..We just walk towards that direction..It's dark, windy, dirty, drizzling and scary..LOL...we continued to walk nevertheless.. We gave up at the 7/8 of the journey and paid the tuk tuk driver twice the amount to drive us back..LOL...by the time we reached hotel...it stopped raining...we left our stash in our room and we head out to buy the big bag ..We ended up buying all sorts of road side food and it's super yummy! We spot a very special delicacies of theirs... BBQ eggs with the shell..they said "power"..so i believe it's something got to do with guys..LOL..the uncle somehow or rather chase after cindy..pestering her to wear the straw head and take picture with the egg..everything is in slow motion and it's super hilarious..So we persuaded the uncle to put on the hat and we took a picture of him..Super duper funny.. We went in 7-11 to source for maggie mees as Cindy wanted to buy back some..we ended up getting beer as it's looks plain boring to eat the foods without any drinks=) We went back hotel after buying all the food..Bathe and all and set up the food..We on TV listening to the top 20 English songs hits..We are knocked out after it reaches the #1 hit..LOL Day 3(Saturday) I got stomach cramp mid night cause I think i'm too sleepy and bladder is exploding and didn't want to go to the washroom..LOL..I can't even turn..and I think partly it's due to the super gassy beer..LOL..and finally managed to get up and went to pee and back to sleep..Snooze all the way to 10am SG time..=).. We head down to chatuchak by cab..=) this is where we met the super nice cab driver..okay la..we are nice to him too..We went to the place he requested(he can get extra gasoline) and he is ultra funny with his macdonald smile..LOL...We end up having a deal with him to go floating market the next day..We bargained crazily...LOL Chatuchak have super nice things and we had the nicest food there! Squid Eggs, the cream puffs..OMG!...I love the squid eggs to max..We walked around..stuffing clothes at almost every stalls..what bothers us is that the person don't even flinched abit even when we keep asking for discount..We gave in anway..LOL..since it's already so cheap..i think we are quite bad too...LOL... We met a malaysian selling bags there too! So kind of him to give us more discounts..We kept saying we are neighbours..waHAHAHA...country neighbours also counted..It's quite heartwarming to know people who knows how to speak chinese...=)...We are ultra tired about evening time and we went back to hotel just in time for our buffet dinner... We took pictures of our stash and started dolling ourselves up..With fake lashes, make up, revealing clothes(sort of)..LOL and heels! Everything from BKK..[not make up]...Super fun~..This time round we met a neat and tidy BKK lift guy..he speak to us quite alot..and he is super helpful..talk to us alot etc..wahahaha...we start to believe that dolling up will definitely increase "tao hua yun"...LOL.. Even the waitress talk to me alot when we are having our dinner..=.=..kind of feeling irritated..wahaha..We have the super perfect dinner and the absolute stunning view..LOve it to max...it's our candle light dinner wo..=P... After dinner, we head up to the live band pub to chill...Ordered cocktail which tasted okay...but not for cindy..hers tasted like medicine..=)..Listened to the no so good live band and chatted till 1 plus..Enjoyed to the max..=))...It's also kind of funny when our make up starts to oxidize and lashes drooping..etc..waHAHAHa...so we went back about 1 plus 2.. We pester the hotel receptionist to give us more allowance on our check out time as our flight is on Monday and we have no where to bathe or wash up ourselves...they only extend it to 2pm..=.=..LOL Slept like pig throughout..=) Day 4 (Sunday) We woke up quite early to pack our stuffs and to meet the cab driver..our initial plan is to head down floating market...We decide to give it a miss as we haven't buy package food so we decide to go for a food shopping spree instead..It's so obvious that our cab driver looks kind of upset as he cannot earn the amount..After much bargaining.. we went to 2 other stops so that he can claim his gasoline and he drove us around to search for food.. btw..before setting off.. a bird shitted and almost tio his head...What the~~...don't know it's good or bad for him/us...lol He brought us to this market area..and the food there is costly..is it because that their prices went up or so??-.=...We went back to search for him and request to go another place...He brought us to king power..[duty free]which is even expensive..LOL..and finally..We landed at Big C... Since it's a mega mall..and we are kind of afraid that we can't find him..So we decided to ask him to tag along...LOL..he's so good that he helped us push the trollies while we went all around the place to search for the food we wanted..Can't stop laughing when we spotted him sampling all the food..LOL...he is super hilarious..We kept asking him which is nice and all..Somehow..it's great to have a guy to tag along to help carry stuffs and all..=)...He did another funny act..he went to sign up for the discount card using our receipt and stuffs..LOL...can't stand him... He drove us back to hotel and since we thought that he is a good guy..We gave him half of the requested amount..he looks disappointed at that point..should have realised it that he will cheat on us..LOL...we went up to pack our stuffs again and check-out...we left our baggages at the hotel lobby and set out to platinum mall.. We walked through platunam market..it's ultra squeezy..hot and the stuffs ain't fascinating at all!...We reached platinum mall after 15 mins...We had our lunch at KFC...I had zinger meal and spicy drumlet..while cindy had chicken meat with rice and spicy drumlet...Didn't know that the drumlet is so spicy that I had 2 bites and I couldn't take it..Cindy had 2 pieces..and couldn't take it as well...she is good at eating spiciness!..I ended up gobbling all ices...and removed the skin of the drumlet and ate the meat..=.=... We shop around and our legs sored madly around 6 plus..we decided to go for foot massage and it's super relieving...at about 7...almost all stores are closed...that's way too early!!~~~...When we decided to go back...it rains again...drizzling at first..we walked around to search for food again but to no avail..climbed up the over head bridge to spot one..but again..to no avail but the nearest hotel.. after reaching the hotel...its started to pour...the only food the hotel have is the dim sum restaurant which is quite costly...we decided to have cakes which is at half price but they don't offer forks..SO GOOD Of them!!~..LOL..we gave it a miss and decided to wait at the front porch for the rain to stop..LOL We ate the bread I bought earlier on...lucky I have that!~....when the rain is not that heavy..we went back to platinum mall to ask for tuk tuk..LOL..before that there are so many tuk tuk drivers asking for passengers..we didn't want to hop on..and after...we both agreed that we super dumb...LOL..got tuk tuk don't want take..walked around and kenna drenched kinda then happy.LOL.. went back to baiyoke sky...had our dinner there...the managers started laughing at us..I didn't even realise it..LOL...they are so mean~~...they laughed at our ultra big bag..lol...we bought alot of things what..we had the sumptous dinner..and chatted to waste time...we have too much time to spare..LOL...after..we asked for bill...the guy came over to pass the bill slip to cindy..and he accidentally kicked cindy's bag..and he gave the super apologetic face and apologized..I burst out laughing madly..LOL..it's super hilarious..it's not as if he kicked on a branded bag or so..super can't help laughing....after we left..he even say..hope to see you all again..I can't stop laughing..=DDD We went back to hotel...to put our stuffs and took out some bathing stuffs and went back to sky...we went for their sauna services! Cool right..after sauna can bathe..wahahaha..that's our plan of washing up for the day..=P...It's totally relaxing but having breathing difficulties...about 1 SG time..we went back to hotel to wait for our cab driver...we requested him to come at 2...we slept at the couch from 1-2pm..and we waitied at the sofa from 2- 2.30 and we decided to give him a call...He switched off his phone~~~ so disapointed...we are like waiting for the long lost BF to come..LOL...and without further thoughts..we asked the receptionist to call a cab for us and we head over to the airport... Day 5 (Monday) We reached airport at about 3am and our flight is at 9.20am, we are suppose to be there at 7.20am..Super wrong move we made..LOL...as I thought we are able to check in and sleep inside.. so we found 5 connected seats and we bunked there..There are quite a few people bunking at the airport as well... We started packing our stuffs neatly..Arranged it according to check in items and non check in items...We completed packing at 4 pm we make ourselves comfortable and slept..Regretted not bringing jacket along and we are super duper cold..I changed to a 3/4 wear and long pants but STILL..super duper cold.. Btw..we brushed our teeth there as well..As if it's the hotel..=) We slept til 6am..and I realised that it's ultra noisy..With all the trollies moving all around and voices of individuals... I woke up and found out that the airport is bustling with people..And no other people are sleeping on the seats already! I woke Cindy up..She is soundly asleep lol...and we proceed to immigration area?...to see if we could check in our items.. Our flight is delayed and thus...we can't check in at all..We found seats nearby and we slept there again..of course not occupying the whole 5 seats..=(... At about 7.45am, the people finally came and we checked in our stuffs....We ended up checking in our 2 large baggages which is a must..and the weight exceeded..we paid another 30 plus bucks and we head in to check in area.. I was stopped once again as I forget to throw away the water bottle that I had with me..Which is exceed the limit..=.=.... Time wasted.. we went to walked around and we settled at BK to have our breakfast.. Love the burger! We are suppose to board the plane at 9.20am, and we ate till 9.15am. We strolled there didn't even realise that our plane is about to take off.=.=.....When we are nearing.. the air stewardess asked us if we are boarding TR 103 and we nodded..She threatened us that we have only 1 minute and we ran all the way to our boarding area.. We are panting heavily while on the plane and they announced that there are 5 more passengers that yet to board the plane..Morning exercise indeed... The plane we took love to move at slow speed...and we felt asleep while the plane is still moving on land at BKK..LOL..Can't even take pictures as we are totally exhausted..Cindy did manage to snap a few pics before slippinh into lala land... We slept throughout the flight..I didn't wake up abit..LOL... We only reached SG at about 11 plus..My phone went dead before landing and Cindy is answering phone calls non-stop..LOL...Cindy bought some wine and beers..didn't get any as we don't have anyone who drinks at home..while we are heading the exit, we are stopped and our baggage or once again checked by the custom..This time round, we are directed to declare our items..Kind of worried.. As this is my first flight that was stopped so many god knows times..=.=..LOL.. An officer came out..asked numerous question..Checked our baggages once again and asked how much we spent...I told her..it's about 500-700...and she nodded and informed us that..anything above 300SGD, will charged for GST... Our souls almost left our body..LOL...Go for holiday also need to pay GST..WT~~~... We continuously mentioned that it's for personal use.LOL..and she let us off and request that we should inform our fellow friends that we will charge for taxes..=.=...Speechless.. Cabbed home after~~ (home sweet home) I went home, bathe, ate and unpacked all the food and went to bed at 3pm... I woke up at 9pm..LOL..still in concussion mode..Glad that boss gave us another half day off and we skipped aerobics..I think i will fall asleep while exercising...LOL.. Overall: I enjoyed this trip to the max..Did stuffs that I didn't expect to do in a foreign land...=) BKK people are really friendly..Bargaining became an enjoyable process though sometimes it's really fustrating when they don't budge at all..=D...Met some really chio people and I love bargaining with them..WAHHAa...It's not as dangerous as many said..As long as you are careful enough I think it should be okay..=))...I think we ain't really that careful as well..Holding on to such a big bag while moving around certainly attracts lots of attention..LOL.. A very eventful trip..=)) Lovess~~ |
