Bangkok Day 2 & 3!!I've combined photos for Day 2 & 3 as these two days were spent wholely on shopping....so...did'nt take much photos... hehe....too busy....spending... :P
So .... Day 2
Started out from hotel after breakfast...
We walked to the BTS station Ari to get to Siam station (all major shopping malls situated around this area, from the high end branded malls to the Sg. Wang type malls)
From Siam station...we walked all the way to Bobe market (walking distance 40 minutes!)
Why walk?? erm...."Get to see more things laa.." said aunt...."and save money for more shopping too!" :P
Bobe market is a wholesale place where you can find clothes and stuff dirt cheap!! (bikinis for RM10!!)
After an unfruitful shopping trip, we decided to walk back to Siam...to check out Mahboonkhrong...popularly known as MBK...
Stopped by at Tesco for lunch before that.... had yummy beef noodles & fried chicken bought from a roadside stall.. (sorry...forgot to take photos...was too busy eating :)
The rest of the day was spent walking around MBK, Pratunam and the areas around it. We've discovered an amazing place to shop but it was late and they were closing...so...reserve for day 3!!
Day 3
Left hotel...walk to Saphan Kwai...took BTS to Siam....walked to the Platinum Fashion Wholesale Market!
Well...the name says it all....5 floors of anything fashion you can think about...at wholesale prices....shop till you really drop!!
We spent the whole day here...so...not much photos....only photos of lunch & dinner....heh....
So....let the photos tell you the story....
so....where to shop next??
At Tesco... we saw some amazingly huge durians!!
Bangkok's public toilets are amazingly clean.....and...abit different too...this is their squat toilet...
After walking like forever...we stopped to rest at a cafe to have some ice cream...
Coconut ice cream...abit scepticle at first but surprisingly it turn out to be very nice!!
coconut flavoured ice cream, yam cubes at the side, some pulut rice at the bottom and nangka strips on top...yummy!!
Normal tasting vanilla ice cream with rasberry sauce...
We were caught in the rain while walking back to the BTS station...it was so heavy we took refuge at this tiny stall....we were drenched anyway...
the aunty was selling some food.....what is it?
