Day 3

Alright, now is the update of my day 3 in bangkok.



Woke up late, at 1130 pm. oh my gosh.



Went out and jalan jalan around.. As usual, we ate a lot.



While we were having lunch at this road side stall(again), we met a group of drenched singporeans. guess what.. it's the SONGKRAN.



Yes, the water festival. While i was on the taxi at a traffic junction, there was a group of local who actually opened my door and splash water.. crazy la.



We walked around and looked around. not many shops are open, but ok la.



Went to this place which looked like a pasar malam and tried the barbequed bananas. Wa seh.. it sucks.. it's really not nice, though it looks nice. Luckily, i still have my big bag of banana fritters. heh.

The banana fritters rocks la.



I got splashed at this place, well, this guy saw me and ran towards me.. sensing that there was no where to run to, i squat down and let him splash. cos bo bian.



heh. cooling in the hot weather.



Went off the chinatown and i slept at this chinese restaurant like place while the other 2 gluttons ordered a bowl of shark's fin each and savoured every drop of it. Smells good, but i don't eat shark's fin la.



At night, we went back to silom and caught the cabaret show.



Argh.. not my type of night entertainment. So demeaning to see the girls do acts like that. And the caucasians i saw there... they are like enjoying and using money to get the girls to do more of the demeaning acts. Utterly disgusted by them.



Alright.. finally we left the cabaret place and tried walking back to the skytrain station.



But alas, it's so packed and crowded. It's like walking along Orchard road during christmas eve, only worse.



We can't even walk properly and it's so dangerous.



People drenched in water, sweat and er, this white stuff which is like goo and they spread it on pp's face. Kinda disgusting la.



Finally got back to the hotel region and me, starving already, went into this german bakery and bought quite a lot of bread and what not. I must say the pig's ears are good.



We went to This family mart later on and bought a lot of microwavable food. heh heh..



Finally, we're back in the hotel devouring our food, and i even caught a late night movie on HBO, " the lady in water"



Absolutely nice



Woooo...

The next day, we'er on our way back to singapore.

An fantastic trip. Absolutely fun and most of all, relaxing and stress free.
