Bangkok Day 1

Bangkok Day 1

 

Happy faces before boarding! Just hanging out before boarding and doing some colouring hehehe. We were so damn excited ^^

 

On the way to the hotel! Talking about the hotel, I love love love the location of Novotel Siam Square! It was right smack in the middle of the shopping district which has a pretty good night market right outside the hotel! Super convenient and highly recommended hehehe. No pictures of the hotel coz we didn't take any lol.

Walked to platinum fashion mall after checking in and spent about 2 hours at the extension area of the mall! I was finding shoes to buy because smart me didn't bring any other pair to bkk and the one I was wearing was about to die. There was nothing much though! I ended up with only a pair of sandals lol. I still prefer shopping for shoes in Taiwan. The shoes are so much more comfy and cheap there. 

 Sa took a photo of the directory just to show how the mall was so much more catered to the females than to males. But obviously that isn't true!! Sa still had a good time shopping at the mall! Many of the guys apparels were located on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th floors of the old wing in platinum mall (FYI GUYS).

That's us on a tuktuk ^^ Tried to haggled with a few tuktuk drivers but we failed miserably. I cannot haggle alone :'( Sa obviously doesn't try as well. And because we were running late for our dinner reservation (after going a little crazy in platinum mall) we had no choice but to just hop onto a tuktuk and gave up haggling hahaha.

I secretly like taking tuktuk hehe! Though our faces were pretty much covered with a layer of dust and I was reluctant to chitchat with sa on the tuktuk because I didn't want all the dust into my mouth, I like how the tuktuk driver brings you to your destination asap LOL. They don't waste time being stuck in bkk's signature heavy traffic, they just chiong all the way. WOOHOO ^^

Dinner at Somboon Seafood restaurant! Made reservations this time round so we walked in like a boss hahaha. Sa and I had a yummy seafood dinner with lotsa food! There were only 2 of us so we couldn't have a huge variety of food but we still ordered pretty much anyway! We had crab, tiger prawns with glass noodles, fish and some veg as well. I love steamed fish so the fish was my favourite ^^ The dinner came up to less than 50sgd HOW CHEAP IS THAT PLEASE?!?!?!?

After dinner we took a stroll along the famous patpong night market where pingpong shows were everywhere lol. Nope I didn't dare to watch the show hahaha. We were walking along the pubs and this local thai came up to us and stuffed the menu in my face. I was quite disgusted already :'( Hahaha!

That's about it for Day 1 :) I took 2 weeks since I got back to type out a short post about the 1st day of my trip. Hahaha what a pig ._.
