Day Three:- Saturday
Chaktuchak Weekend Market (JJ Market), Platinum Mall, etc.
I only have 2-3 photos for this day, busy walking around shopping, no time for pictures!
JJ market disappointed us. Compared to our previous visit in JJ, we tot we can buy alot of nice dress/clothes at JJ but we cant really find something nice. Still prefer Platinum mall! We bought alot over there. Walked thru every single shop & floor.
At the hotel having breakfast.
Day Four:- Sunday
Damnoen Saduak Floating Market, Platinum Mall etc.
Woke up damn early like 5am in the morning despite we sleep late the day before. Had our quick breakfast before meeting with the tour guide at 6.20am hotel lobby.
It supposed to be a join tour with other group (other hotel), but according to the tour guide, the other group cancelled their trip on that morning for some reason, we paid for join tour in the first place so in the end it became like a private tour without additional charge.
The executive car was awesome, very spacious and comes with massage chair.
The whole journey to Damnoen Saduak Floating Market was about 90 mins. We started to camwhore before we get sleepy.
The seats behind - empty. Andre happily put his leg up and sleep!
We fell asleep half way, when the tour guide woke us up, we were at Sugar Farm and Orchid Farm (beside each other), the tour guide said it was along the way to floating market, so she let us visit for free. :)
Heard abit of story about the sugar (we're not interested), and then we left to Orchid Farm to see flowers. lol.
Making coconut sugar, alot of BEES!
After like half an hour, the tourists started to come one after another, so we left quickly to long tail boat jetty to prevent long queue.
Another 15 mins journey from sugar farm to floating market.
On the long tail boat! About 20 mins boat ride to Dam.Saduak.
We passed by alot of local houses and really amazed by the authentic lifestyle of local residents. We should really be happy to live here.
Once we reach Damnoen Saduak, we got to changed to paddle boat, long tail boat wasnt allowed to go in there.
500baht for one paddle boat with 4 seats, they only have 4 seats so we are on our own without the tour guide. lol.
Andre taking a photo for the 3 of us. the only one photo on this tiny boat.
HUGE BOAT JAM. Those paddler was damn skillful. Ours was a lady somemore! I was very scared that the boat capsizes. haha!
After the paddle boat ride, we was given 30 to 45mins to explore around, so we had our lunch along the river! 30 baht noodles was damn yummy. I wasnt really hungry so I had one bowl, andre had 2, ting and py shared 3 bowls.
And I finally found the coconut ice cream, I start to miss the coconut ice cream already!
It was freaking hot around 12pm plus, we were all full and hot, so we left Damnoen Saduak.
The driver drove us to a craft center or something. The tour guide was telling us how much it would cost for a set of handcraft furniture, USD20,000 and more!
Huge furniture. I guess you need to have a BIG bungalow to buy those furniture.
Sleep through the journey back to hotel.
We took a shower, and went for more shopping around BKK city.
Day Five:- Monday
Platinum, Siam Paragon, Central World, MBK, Pratunam and other shopping mall.
What else except for more shopping? haha!
No photos coz busy walking, shopping, busy finding money changer, cmpare rates and last minute shopping.
When we were at Central World during evening hour, we saw their King! with.. not sure if it's their queen or princess. Everyone was kneeling to pay their respect, camera wasnt allowed so no King/Queen/Princess's picture!
After a long day walk, we went for a 2 hour full body Thai massage at night, it was so comfortable that everyone fell asleep, definitely going back there again!
xoxo. :)
