Bangkok Trip #2

My second trip to Bangkok. Places I visited are more or less the same as the 1st trip. But in this trip, I experienced new things such as new airport, Thai style cinema, Platinum fashion mall, authentic Thai food and FREE~~~ city tour on a tram.
We missed the aquarium at Siam Paragon the last time. This time round, we will again give it a miss. Haha..
At Siam Paragon, the most important thing is to eat lunch. At basement, there are plenty of restaurants. Most of them can be found in Singapore but not Fuji, a japanese restaurant. Food is delicious and not too expensive. We successfully psycho ys to treat us. Should psycho him more often hehe... :p
Yummy...
After lunch, we hop to another huge shopping mall, Central World. This mall is less crowded and things are slightly cheaper. I bought a pair a Geox for 1,480Baht. Wow!! The swensen's here are also cheaper. 1 nice chocolate sundea with brownies & chocolate bits only 69Baht. Should eat more.


After walking for the whole day, we pack some fast food and return to ung ung apartment. The apartment is small but enough for 2 of us. If we can find a HDB with master bedroom as big as this, we will buy the HDB immediately.2nd day is very very hot. We took free tram around the city. The tram got no steering. Amazing. I don't understand the tour guide. So along the way, I just took pictures.



Bushes in the shape of an elephant.
Tuk tuk..
Sai Cing Cao (Giant Swing)
Democracy Monument
Wat ??? I dunno the name. I came here last time. Last time walked in the compound until almost heat stroke.
This is where ung ung ung work.
Leaving Bangkok on the 3rd day. If someone tell you there is nothing to eat at the airport, don't believe him. If you do believe him, bring some thin Pizza Hut crush pizza from town and eat at the airport.
I probably won't go to Bangkok again. But I have a shopping list for ung ung.
Groceries such as toothbrush, toothpaste, clothing, cute tissue pack, cute stationery, cute album and all other cute stuff.

Too bad, kp and hz didn't come. They are scared of demonstration and flu. But nothing happened at all.
