Touch Down.. Bangkok!!

Alright Tiger Airways isnt tat bad.. maybe got many empty seats so each of us got a row of seats to ourselves.. shiok!! haha..most important was we were able to touch down Bangkok Airport. Heard tat this is a new airport and is huge and looks pretty nice.. din have time to explore much.. maybe when we departing tat day can explore more.. anyway back in singapore budget terminal, really simple terminal..and efficient.. maybe not many ppl board the plane.. able to meet the Duty Officer who happens to be my friend..last time gotta call him SIR!.. now..haha.. now call him HJ.. he looks cute in his work uniform..haha..bring orange polo T.. too bad the photo taken with him not with me yet..

So.. out of bangkok airport.. take bus or taxi? recommended by the airport personnel, Taxi will be a better choice.. fast cheaper n no need stuck in crowd.. and is 400 bahts roughly.. oh well, juz take cab...there are lotsa color cabs out there.. pink, yellow green, red, yellow.. brand of cars used by taxi.. mostly is toyota n Lexus..wee..we got in a toyota altis i think.. manage to snap a few sunset shoots along the highway..



Within 30mins we reached Bai Yoke Sky Hotel.. located in a wholesaler area.. which is good.. shopping is juz down the road.. haha.. while checking in, another 1000 baht/night we could upgrade to better rooms @ higher levels..but we dun wan the offer..so we got the 24th level room .. room number 2405.. 3 beds in the room.. pretty spacious.. toilet is big too.. can 2 ppl bath @ the same time and 1 person doing biz.. haha.. coz got a shower and bathtub separated..

While Arashi checking out the toilet.. Allan and I went to explored the higher levels..got a mini musemum , buffet resturant, revolving tower, a nice swimming pool.. (bought along swimming trunk, but dunno got chance to swim or not)

After settling down, we headed to MBK by the TuTu (thailand bike).. thanks to allan's experience in thailand last yr, we were not conned by the TuTu.. offered us 200 bahts..but we bargained till 60 bahts.. which is SGD $3.. The ride was terrified n yet exciting.. for tat price, was quite worthy.haha.. although not as power as the james bond commerical.. the way he twist n turn on the busy traffic.. OMG!!! haha..

Did a bit of research on MBK.. http://www.mbk-center.com/en/index.asp

Our 1st meal was in a Japanese Resturant.. standard is as good as SGP but water isnt free!! haha.. one thing tat is good abt SGP, has clean n drinkable water , even frm tap. :D

Then we headed to higher level to check out the shops and cinema..the cinema pretty well designed and looks like GV..And there are more eating outlets @ that level. There is also a bowling centre there, so we decided to play bowling there and none of us did well there.. not home court tats why..haaa.. beside our lane has a japanese couple with a kid.. the mum looked pretty young n pretty, tats why we din play well.. i mean they two din play well coz of her.. haha.. the shops selling clothes have many varieties and prices are ard 100 bahts ( $5 SGD) , cheaper than singapore pasar malam..haha.. no wonder ppl import clothes frm thailand to sell in sgp.. maybe can look into tis biz.. anyone interested?? can share the investment..

Ended our trip to MBK with a plate of ice creams *looks like Swesen's Earthquake* .. really shiok!!

Tats the end our day 1.. Go back bath, plan for next day and zzzzzzzzzz....
