Hey peeps!~



As usual, i'm lag with my updates again. Bei actually asked me why i didn't update my blog. N i was pretty surprised cos' i didn't know that he had saved my blog address.

Anyway, the long over due post for the Bangkok trip :)



21st - 24th July - 4D3N Bangkok Trip



Thanks to Lester, we got a good deal to go to bangkok :) 2-way Tiger airline transport + 4-star hotel + airport taxes = $418. :)





At the budget terminal :)







This is Lester and Weeling, my group mates for my entrepreneurship project :)





The plane that brought us to Bangkok! And the pilot was a caucasian lady!









N we reached the airport at Bangkok!



N so.. we checked in to our hotel at Baiyoke sky. Lester & Wee Ling stayed on the 31st floor while Bb & I stayed on the 25th level. We got a family suite!! Lucky lucky us. Lester & Wl got the normal twin room. It's slightly smaller and without the single bed.






Then there was this walk-in wardrobe!! I dunno why they put a walk-in wardrobe in hotels. Maybe it's for us to display our purchases,haha.

Whee!!!~ =)


N since Jul kept recommending the Thailand's pork burger, we decided to head down to Mac to try it, hahax. It's really nice and soft! Much tender than the Mac chicken that we have. N the best thing is....

They sell taro pies!!!!!! My favourite pie!!! loLZ.

After lunch, we started our shopping spree at MBK. MBK is a popular shopping mall in the Bangkok district. Anyway, We decided to split into pairs so that we could be more efficient in browsing all the shops. N we agreed to meet at Swensens at 6pm for dinner

N when it was 6pm, we went to the meet point, but Lester & wl didn't turn up.

We waited, and waited, till 6.30pm, still no sight of them

At 7pm, they still didn't appear. Hence we decided to eat at a nearby cafe while keeping a lookout for them..

At the Bug & Bee cafe:

We tried this! I can't rmb wad's this called.. loLx. Anyway, it's like curry potatoes and chicken in the middle and it's quite tasty.



Then we tried this crepes too! It's like stir-fried layers of pasta and it tasted really good.

Anyway, after dinner, Lester & Wl still didn't turn up and we were so worried that sth happened to them. We tried contacting them, but Wl didn't hav auto roam and Lester left his phone in the hotel.

At 8pm, we decided to walk around to look for them and...

We finally found them! Lolx. They said that they were waiting at the Swensens downstairs! There's actually 3 Swensens in this whole shopping mall! Gosh! Who will think that there'll be so many identical restaurants in the same building, loLx.

So lesson learnt: When u go to Bangkok, rmb to specify exactly where and which unit to meet at.


In Singapore, there's a lot of stray cats. In Bangkok, there's a lot of stray dogs and they love to sleep at almost everywhere.



Ooh! We spotted this car and i thought it looks cute. :)


We went to try the traditional Thai massage too. It was much gentler than i expected. Then that night, on our way back to the hotel.. We were stopped by the Thai police at a road block and he wanted to check our passports. Of cos' we didn't bring our passports out, so Lester and Wl showed their ICs to prove that we are Singaporeans.

Then the police officer said: "No seat belts, no passports, u must pay 500bahts each or go police station."

It was so ridiculous cos' there wasn't any seat belts in the taxi in the first place! It's not our fault for not putting on the seat belt. N 2000 bahts in total! That's so corrupted, loL.

After some bargaining and stuff, we paid 200bahts in total and left.

Lesson learnt: When stopped by a police in Thailand, just pretend that u don't understand English and they won't be able to do anything to u.


Anyway, here's more pictures taken in our hotel:



My favorite fruit bread! It's really delicious!


The view from the 83rd level restaurant where we always have our breakfast at :)
