Ok here's the Day 2 post on Bangkok.
The day started early, 6 am BKK time for a full day tour of the famous sites in Bangkok.
:)
Our tour guide were on time so we had to have breakfast in the van.
First Pit stop was the Sugar Coconut Factory.
Nothing interesting here.
I guess they do a stop over here so that the tour guide and the driver could have their breakfast,
and they eat VERY fast.
We haven't even complete seeing all the souveniors in the soveniour shop!
Then off we went to my favourite part of the tour,
Damnoen Saduak Floating Market.
It was not in Bangkok city,
so all of us passed out happily when we heard that the journey will be about an hour.
And most of our time in the van, we were all sleeping.
I still have no idea why we are so so tired.
All the jakun girls taking the boat for the first time.
The boat then took us around this small village.
It is such an opener for me, having to see how kampung life is all about.
While we are busy catching up with the latest technology, they are just leading a simple life.
It looks very peaceful.
:)
After the sight-seeing boat tour, we then took another boat for the floating market shopping.
The self-proclaimed lady who know that she is beautiful,
and nobody need to tell her that.
Haha.
Very very friendly lady.
We bought some souvenirs to bring back home then once it is done,
we found a place to sit and try out their mango sticky rice and the coconut drink.
Sweet Indulgence!
Bought a new pair of sandals before we go off from this place,
and the staff was kneeling down to help me put on the pair of sandals.
Felt like a princess for that moment, hee.
Very very nice uh the people over there,
I was touched with their courteous act every single day!
Next stop would definitely win the most kecoh stop of the tour.
And it is the Elephant Ride!!
Adilah and I were shouting like CARAZY the moment we climb onto the elephant !!
Its like as if we were going to take some thrill rides, hahah.
And the picture above sums it all.
After getting used with the sitting position, we started to take some pictures with our elephant
Done with this..
Off we went to Samphran Elephat Ground & Zoo.
We got to take picture with these sleepy tigers,(we got to touch their tales too!),
and I got to take take a picture with a baby elephant , named JJ!
Nice pose JJ.
:)
And then its time for the Crocodile Show.
The show evolves around these two Thai guys who are doing crazy stunts with the crocodile.
Here are their crazy things that they did.
After seeing those crazy stunts, we end our tour to see Tahi cultural show at Rose Garden Riverside.
This show basically covers everything you need to know about the people of Thailand and their culture
That was the end of our tour.
Well, we did went to the Gem Store,
but none of us decided to get any gems even though the price is affordable, haha.
Then, we experienced the infamous massive traffic jams.
We were stuck in the van for about an hour plus,
but with all that chaos and we are expecting this,
the driver still apologised to us for having our time wasted.
SO SWEEETTTT right?!!!
So, to wrap our night we spend our time at Khao San,
the heavily populated place that is filled with tourists.
Had dinner at Chill Chill, because they have free wi-fi, haha.
But their naan was really GOOOOOD.
After dinner, Mas and Ad get their hair braided.
I did manicure and pedicure for the first time in my life,
My feet's dead skin were literally flying everywhere during the session.
Disgusting, but I was amazedballs though.
:D
And also, I got some souvenirs in that area to bring home for my homiessss.
That basically sums up our long and tiring day two.
Got to thank our Miss Poppins(the nickname we gave her cos we have no idea what her name was) here,
for bringing us around.
She is the most kanchiong tour guide I've ever met,
but still,
she's very very nice
:)
Day 3 and 4 post soon.
(Hopefully, hehe)
