At first, I have to wish HAPPY CNY.
( Although it's already Chor 9, but it's still CNY-ing )
I'm here to share my amazing BANGKOK TRIP during CNY!
Erm, it's actually started on 6 Jan which CNY didn't start yet
This trip comes suprisingly.
My family just planed it one week before we go
So, it may be a lil expensive on the hotel and the flight ticket.
( Erm actually i think still considered cheap but my bro said can be CHEAPER! )
_____6 Jan 2016_____
We had our flight from Hatyai to Bangkok.
As usual, we had our train ride to hatyai.
We had our early lunch at the famous seafood restaurant - 甘英餐厅
Then, Kitty , the Tuk Tuk driver who my dad usually finds him when we have our trip in hatyai to send us to Hatyai International Airport.
After several hours waiting, finally it's time for us to FLY!
It was the first time flying experience to my yiyi and younger sis.
Although I'm not the first time, I still feel the same excitement with them.
I sat beside the window pane which is behind the airplane wing!
The angle to take picture is totally AWESOME!
And the most lucky one, I had the chance to watch the sun set down.
I still remembered the last time when i flew to taiwan,
I wanted to snap down the moment when sun sets,
but then after i came back from toilet,
It's all BLACK!
Gosh.....
But this time, i recorded it !
Yeahhhhh btw it was damn fast! hahaha
When we reached Don Muang airport, it was 7 smtg.
So, we rent 2 taxi to send us to our hotel - Check Inn Chinatown Hotel.
Erm Chinatown doesn't have a convenient tranportation system.
The only MRT is far from our hotel.
We also don't know how to sit public buses, so only taxi.
But their taxi fees is quite fair, it calculated by meter.
Our hotel is considered hard to find, because it hides in a backstreet.
Inside the hotel room has one small kitchen and toilet.
Ermm toilet is the most important!
After that, we had our long walk to the hectic CHINATOWN!
Chinatown is fulled of people, stalls and cars.
We have our pre-dinner at the stall of Keoy Teow Soup before we have our seafood dinner in T&K Seafood ( Because Internet said it had to wait for a long time)
But then we prove it wrong, hahahahha
It was fullhouse, but we only spend like 10 smtg and we can taste the delicious seafood!!
We ordered crab and prawn fried rice, fried mee, prawn, sotong, curry crab!
Oh Gosh!! Those were really mouth-watering!

_____7 Jan 2016_____
Hahaha I have to say, the pillow and the bed of hotel made me don't want to wake up everytime.
My dad and yiyi woke up so early and went to seek for breakfast.
Erm, it was 7am in Bangkok time and 8am in Malaysia time
The stalls and shops still didn't open yet
The early birds doesn't always get the worm.
Hahaha, after prepared everything, we went to powerful 7-11 to search for our breakfast.
We took our breakfast while heading to the pier of Chao Phraya River.
Some sandwiches and hotdogs which are hot.
Simple yet nice!
We had a ferry ride to the Grand Palace first.
It was very cheap, though.
So what I learned in Geografi when I Form2 is correct,
Menam Chao Phraya is one of the important transportation in Thai.
It leaves you from bumper-to-bumper traffic, but gives you ''body-to-body crowd''
Our first stop of the day was The Grand Palace.
Ok. I am serious. This is definitely hundred times crowded than the ferry!
The Grand Palace is crowded with tourists!
The buildings were quite nice but then i have a bad memory there.
Zzzzz.... and finally we don't visit the inside part of it because it costs us RM50 per person
Then, we sat crossing-river ferry to the opposite and had a visit in Wat Rakang.
My dad wanted to visit there for long times ago.
And now, his dream achieved!
The ambience of Wat Rakang and The Grand Palace was totally different.
In Wat Rakang, mostly were Siam residence.
They mostly with their palm close but not with the camera.
After that, we sat the crossing-river ferry again and took a taxi to the biggest market in Thai- Chatuchak Weekend Market
It's really big! Erm i think i should use huge (?)
It's really big! Erm i think i should use huge (?)
Endless stalls which sold shoes, dress, souvenirs, crafting, food etc
The dress and shirts only cost 100 Baht which is RM12 smtg.
This definetely cannot be found in the market of Malaysia!
I found the fake BIRKEN there
The design looks so alike! Haaha but not comfortable as the real one
After the long time shopping there, we had our simple dinner at the stall
Then, we went to another Night Market - Rot Fai Train Market
It wasn't near
We have to sit MRT then BTS then Taxi then Walk
BUT, it's WORTH!
The things sell here is cheaper! I bought pant for only 70 Baht!
This market also ENDLESS
When we thought we already finish shopped all the stalls, then we found 100++ stalls more
Pity to our feet actually, they walked alot!
My sis Iphone calculated we almost walked 13km that day!
And one thing to mention, we walked a lot that day,
but we dont even have one drop of SWEAT !!
The weather was PERFECT!
( Erm although sweat let me feel the sense of accomplishment more )
We even shivered because of the cold wind!
(Especially in the open space)
Only 16 degree that time!
Hahaha back to the Market
Then we had our supper at the food stalls!
Tomyam is a must in thai!
We saw stall which sells fried insects.
Yuck. No one of us dares to try.
After that, we had taxi back to chinatown.
Luckily, the time we reach chinatown was 00.00am
We able to watch they put on firecrackers to celebrate CNY!
It makes me feel like I'm in Malaysia too!
_____8 Jan 2016_____
This day, we had to check out hotel and move to hotel in Sukumvit - Royal Ivory Hotel.
Then we walked to the Hua Lamphong MRT station which is 2km from out hotel!
Don't feel it's easy! We were with our luggage!
Sometimes, we have to carry the heavy luggage when the road is unfavourable to let us pull them.
And bad news here, the wheels of the luggage malfunction!
Arghhh!
But, we still successful reach the MRT station by our foot!
Again, MRT then BTS.
We stopped at the Nana station and started our walking journey again to find our hotel!
Seriously speaking, the service of that hotel is bad and the toilet is smelly!
Arghh! Bad review for it!
Then, we moved to MBK Shopping Centre which is located at Siam
That area is surrounded by shopping malls.
The shopping malls there were connected together!
But we only go to MBK because internet said it's worth to go
Erm we had our lunch there.
My dad too impetuous ,6 people but 8 set lunch!
Our stomach like gonna blew out.
Erm, luckily we shopped after our overloaded lunch.
For me, i think it's nothing to buy there compare to market.
It wasn't branded but the price wasn't cheap.
(Maybe it's cheap for others)
Again, prove internet wrong .
After that, we walked to Plantinum Fashion Mall.
Alas, this was a really long walk! T^T
Luckily i didn't faint away half way.
PFM more worth to go compare to MBK
It is a very big complex.
For women, it would be paradise because there mostly sold women's wear.
For men, only a few section!
My bro keep on complaining how unfair it is! Haha...
Around 8p.m, the mall closed, but the street market started.
Girl's accessories, DIY shirts, DIY bags and all kind of stuffs were sold there.
Finally settle my gals souvenir there.
You know it wasn't easy to find souvenir for a gang of 11 people!
For those are cheap, it wasn't nice.
For those are nice, it wasn't cheap.
( It must times with 11)
I also bought a DIY T-shirts which have my name on it.
It's so special!
(I don't know whether it will be weird anot if I wear on street)
We had our late dinner on Sukhumvit Road.
Erm, the street which the hotel I stayed is all pub.
GG actually.
All amolang and chicken hahaha
We walked quite far away from hotel to find our dinner.
We found a seafood restaurant and the price is damn cheap!
Erm not tasty as T&K Seafood but still not bad!
_____9 Jan 2016_____
It's time to say goodbye to Bangkok!
For those who want to travel to Bangkok, remember 4 days wasn't enough!
Because two days is used to wait flights and train.
So regret I didn't have the chance to have a look in Terminal 21.
Can I say, ''Nevermind, we will visit there again.''
I think my dad will cry when I say this, hahaah!
