We had our breakfast provided by our hotel. They serve simple american style breakfast. We were able to choose a set each from the menu. The portion is rather small for a guy's intake :/ But there are free-flow breads, salad, cereals and drinks at the mini buffet counter. In overall the breakfast was yummy ^^ We regreted we werent able to have it yesterday since we went out too early before they start serving.
Today we were going to visit the temples along the Chao Phraya River. So we took the BTS and got down at Saphan Taksin station. The Central Pier is right below the station. There was a counter selling the boat ticket. One way is 40baht; One day pass is 150baht. You can ride any boat with the ticket. I heard that you can ride the orange flagged public boat with 15baht each way, we didnt ride it though. We planned to go Asiatique tonight so we bought the One Day passes.
We got onto a blue flagged boat. There was a Thai tour guide inside the boat, speaking with a mic, explaining the buildings around us while the boat was moving. He was speaking english but it was hardly understandable with his strong thai accent. Haha. At this point of time we found the ticket booklet very useful and it was in english.

Ahh handsome boy xD |
My face was puffy all the time >< |
We left the boat at Wat Pho pier as our first stop. Walked for a little distance and here we reached! We bought the tickets inside for 100baht each and got a bottle of chilled water for free. The Reclining Buddha....

After that, we took the 'cross-over boat' to the opposite for only 3baht. Wat Arun is just at the opposite.
You'll need to buy a 50baht ticket to enter closer into the temple.
My toes were painful that time, maybe I walked too much yesterday :( We didnt enter the temple. It was okay for me to just look it from outside. You can also go to the Grand Palace and Chinatown with the river boat. It was regretful because we didnt go to several places that we planned earlier. I wanted to eat seafood at Chinatown since I heard T&K Seafood is famous there! I also wanted to go Asiatique to see its beautiful night scenery. I should wear comfortable shoes and come to visit these places again next time :)
Then we returned to BTS and went to Terminal 21 shopping center. It is conveniently located at BTS Asok station. I saw it on TV first and it looks so unique with its Airport Theme. Every floor is designed with different Country style such as London and Tokyo. Many of my Fb friends also came here for a visit so I thought I must come here too.
We are at the London floor :) |
In my opinion, there was nothing much to see here :/ I was excited at first and then my mood was going down when we walked more. They put efforts on designing the interiors but I just dont find them go well with the theme. I can see japanese store at London floor.. We went to bought some snacks at Tao Kae Noi Land at the LG floor.
We were attracted by the displayed crepes from Anoi. We couldnt resist dessert so we chose one for each ^^
All choices are so tempting :P |
I chose the No.2 Hot pick - Green tea flavor ♥ |
Bf chose lychee flavor crepe. |
We enjoyed the sweet desserts at water fountain. |
Fried oyster egg, Roasted duck noodles, Rolled-rice noodles soup with pork offals. |
We went back to hotel after that. Since we cancelled Asiatique so we have plenty of time to rest. That night we went for shopping around our hotel area and had dinner at Platinum Mall.
Somtam with salted egg ● Stewed duck noodles ● Coloured noodles with coconut milk |
We bought new McD Shogun Pork burger and cocktail as supper. Count how many food we ate a day. Lol xD
SPY lime & mint cocktail. Both of us dont drink alcohol usually. Just try it for fun :) |
McD Shogun pork burger. Delicious tasty yummy. |
This was the end of our day 3. We were coming back Msia on the next day T.T Noooo~~~
In the last day morning, we packed our luggage and had breakfast at hotel. Oh ya, this hotel provides laundry service too. 100baht each laundry without folding and ironing. We also booked taxi to airport for 400baht at 12pm. So we still have time to go for our last shopping! Hehe XD
With around 5-10mins walk, we reached the Pratunam Market where they wholesales very cheap clothes. Mostly girl clothes. Girls will go crazy here. I think Pratunam market is more packed than Chatuchak. The shop owners are unpacking their stocks and alot buyers are carrying big bags. Most shops do wholesale which you need to buy more than 1 or 2 pieces to get really cheap price.
I bought several pieces of clothes and left there. I felt very uncomfortable because I'm already in sick. At 12pm we rode on our taxi. It only took half hour to reach airport! @@ We wandering around after checked-in our luggage. We went to eat again hahaha.
His seafood noodles with thick gravy. |
Sick people ordered fish fillets noodles soup. |
In the boarding room we went shopping again. I bought these at Naraya store.
Naraya wallets & makeup bag. |
That's all of our 4D3N Bangkok trip. Most unforgettable experience was our tired legs. Tired until lazy to go for foot massage. We are lazy pigs xD Promise you next time we will go for a more relaxing trip. No more shopping shopping. Kesian nye ( ^-^)/(T_T) ♥♥
