We were carrying our new backpack as hand carry for tiger airways
I think we were worried that the bag will be too big to classify as hand carry
But all went went and husband was happy that we were assigned to the exit row.
Again, I came down with a migraine
And spent the flight trying to sleep.
I think the last time I went Bangkok was many years ago before my sis had kids!
I'm glad they developed the airport city rail
So easy and cheap to reach the city center!
I think we paid about 90baht each and 1hour to our hotel at national stadium bts
Near to mbk to start my shopping haha.
Despite my mum's warnings
I still indulged in the street fruit stalls and charmed husband with the delicious mangoes.
And I lost count of the times we ate from street stalls but luckily no tummy pain.
For lunch, I managed to convince husband not to eat Japanese or pizza
And we ate at the mbk food court
Stew pork rice that tastes very teochew style
And tom yum soup with instant noodles
Food was not bad
And we got hooked on Thai milk tea for the rest of the trip.
I think I have been away from BKK for too long
I was constantly searching for the 100bahts kind of good buys from my memory
While everything was more 200bahts now
Thankfully husband was nice enough to accompany my shopping
Although we didn't buy much
And paid for an expensive Thai massage in mbk at 700bahts each!
Oh well I needed the massage and husband needed the experience
After a short rest
I bought husband to the infamous patpong night scene
Initially I wanted to take a tuktuk
But the hotel estimated it will be 200/300bahts
So we took the metro for 25bahts each.
We took time to walk a little at the night market
Before I was lured into naraya and convinced husband to start buying gifts
I wasn't interested in watching the Thai girls show
Especially after reading online how they can extort money at exit
After compromise, we had a drink at the a go go pub instead
With girls/"girls" dancing in their bikinis.
At least we just need paid for our drinks.
Then was a trip to the 7-11 for snacks, rice with mango,
And buy some BBQ sticks outside hotel for dinner.
Husband was not really into the BBQ
But I was happy to eat a good supper.
