We woke up quite early in the morning. As for your information, Bangkok time difference is 1 hour behind Malaysia.
We had breakfast (Gardenia bun I brought from KL) in hotel room. Recharge full energy for Chatuchak weekend market.
Like hello? I’m going to shop till drop. My all time favorite!
We walked to the other side of the hotel. Just to discover a new route.
We are trying to ignore smelly and dirty environment.
We found lots of passive dogs. (I would say anjing sopan). They look at us like small insects just passed by. Their face seems to say, Mind Your Own Business!
Walking further down and this time we found Platinum Mall, one of biggest wholesale shopping mall in Bangkok. Wow! More reason to spend money. While, Pratunam morning market just a 5 minutes walking distance from our hotel.
We took a tuk tuk to Victory Monument train station. From there, we paid 25 bht for train ticket straight to Mo Chit station.
Yes, we’re heading to Mo Chit
While waiting for our train, let’s pose!
Just nice as we can sit 🙂
Pinky girls must love this taxi so much
Let’s discover Chatuchak Market
Chatuchak market only opens on weekend from 8am till 6pm. According to one source, about 5,000 stalls sell different items in this market. So if you found something nice, just bargain and buy or you’ll regret!
We arrived quite early and leave around 12 pm. So hot mann!
Early morning. Still lots of shop close
Snapped this because of the shop name. ADDA. Remind me of my best friend
We went mad!
Just a few minutes in Chatuchak, look at my bags
What’s you flavor?
Hot weather + ice cream = Forever Perfect
This is officially my favorite in Bangkok
The only halal stall in Chatuchak market
Back to hotel for a quick refreshment and I was so hungry.
Around 2pm, we walked to Platinum Mall for lunch. Food court can be found at 6th floor.
Instead of having lunch, we need nice dress to wear. We got a river cruise trip around Bangkok city tonight.
Proton Neo in Pratunam street
And FYI, all has been organized by Tommy. I’ve told you, he’s so kind!
We’ve been reminded earlier by Tommy that we are going to River City by taxi.
Nevertheless, we went there by tuk tuk at last minute.
How am I going to wear dress by riding a tuk tuk filled with 4 girls?
No dress, just a simple legging 😉
Yay! Resume shopping session
At 6pm, we rushed back to the hotel.
Our tuk tuk driver has been waiting for us.
And then Tommy said, girls can you wait another 15 minutes? And we asked, why?
He said the driver wants to charge us more. He won’t allow that happens to us. Oh myyyyyy!!!
We sat back and think. Why he is so nice to us? *love*
15 mins later, young tuk tuk driver with quite good looking face reached at hotel lobby.
Tommy wrote down the venue in Thai language.
Maybe because the driver quite young and not familiar with River city area.
I wonder what they sell at Indian Hut
The journey took about 45 mins.
Once arrived, the driver who introduced himself as Pag sent us right in front the main entrance. The issue here, we’re the only group arrived with tuk tuk.
We mean no tuk tuk allowed in that area. But, Pag has promised Tommy to send us to the right place. Pag gave us his number in case we can call him to fetch us up. Of course we’re gonna call you.
On the cruise, we’ve been showed with reminiscing view around Bangkok city.
Fantastic panorama 😉
Me and tuk tuk’s driver, Pag
I really want to wear what she wore
Four of us
Friendly Japanese who shared their travel experience in Malaysia

Queue to enter the cruise *excited*
While waiting for dinner
Mr. Saxophone
Yay! Fooddddsssss
After dinner, we decided to make a tour by ourselves
Yay!!!
And we went back to our seat for cabaret show – miming Titanic’s song
Snapped pic with the entertainers
Oh so amazing Grand Palace view at night
This one too- Wat Arun (It looks like Eiffel Tower in Paris)
I forgot the name of hotel at the left side. But at the right side is Sheraton Hotel
Last day with Tommy. He invited me and the girls visit his hometown, Chiang Mai someday 🙂
