Bangkok Trip Day 3

Wooo. So excited for Day 3 at Bangkok. We explored Pratunam and walked even further. But before I continued, have you read day 1 & 2? 
If you haven't, please read - Day 1 , Day 2

We walked along the small street and found this pancake hotdog. Too excited and ordered one of it for breakfast. Yummy.

He was wrapping our pancake hotdog and ready to be served
Due to sudden heavy rain, we took tutu to one of the nearby shopping mall.

Really heavy rain and actually we were drenched
When we reached the shopping mall (ps: I'm so sorry. I really forgot what is the shopping mall called.), we saw Mcdonald. Before I come Bangkok, Pamela keep telling me that it is a must to try at Bangkok's Mcdonald is the Samurai Pork Burger. Here we were, at Bangkok's Mcdonald. Wow! Really is a must to try! The juicy and soft pork fillet melt in your mouth. Shiok. Feel like eating it now.

We went to supermarket. Funny thing was I saw a lot of free samples on the local foods such as coconut sweet, sweet and spicy squid, tomyum crackers, etc. So, I went to first stop, second stop, third stop and so on. I picked some of the samples and came back to find ys to let him try and disappeared again. He was like hmm...samples? free food? and stood down there looking at me "teleporting" to each stop. After that, we went to visit the biggest temple but it was closed due to flood. .·´¯`(>▂<)´¯`·. Just one more step only.

So we went a bit further down to the shrine outside a shopping mall. Pray for my family, his family, friends and everyone to stay healthy and safe.

Shiok! A long walking day and ended with supper, relaxing on the bed watching some shows and fall asleep cuddling with him. Really enjoyed a short getaway with you. Holding hands, slowly walked around the town, chit chat, teasing each other, laughing and stress-less. I love you so much, Mr.ys. Stay tuned for our Bangkok Day 4. Good night, everyone. 
Love.

Bangkok Trip Day 2

This post is going to be a long post with a lot of photos. Have you read my Bangkok Trip Day 1? If not, here is post - Day 1.

We woke up early in the morning and got prepared. We were ready to travel a bit further that day. When we went down to the lobby,, the bellman seemed recognize us already. Then I asked him,"How to say Thank you in Thai?" He said,"Khob kun kup." Khob Kun Kup! Khob Kun Kup! Khob Kun Kup! I kept repeating this "Khob Kun Kup" for countless time. Along the street, there were some street stalls opened. We saw a lot of people ordered the same drinks and both of us were curious. Hence, we ordered it too. Then when the stall owner made the drinks and passed to me, I was trying to say "Khob Kun Kup" but ended up I went "Khob Khob Khob..." She just passed me the drink and said,"Thank you. :)" My whole face went red. YS was like trying not to laugh at me but he did it. (#⌒∇⌒#)ゞ
Thai Milk Tea
We saw this bbq fishes but not ready yet. Do anyone know what is this street food called?

After that, we took cab to Floating Market. At first, we planned to go to the famous temple but the cab driver told us that that area was flooded. So, he suggested Floating Market. It seemed like going to rain. The Bhumibol Bridge is just opposite.

Finally we reached Damnoen Saduak Floating Market. The entrance fee is 1,500 Thai Baht (approximately S$60). It was kinda expensive but we travelled one hour plus for this. When we boarded the boat, they will help to take a photo first. They will print the photo on the souvenirs and you can buy them after the whole journey ended.
Both of us on the boat
By the way, both of us were wearing "What The Hell" shirt by Abbey Dawn. Hehe. Wheee~~~ In the boat, on the way to the floating market.

Finally we saw some stalls, I bought 6 elephant pouches for 400 baht (approximately S$16). Kinda regretted after paying for it because elsewhere only 100 baht (approximately S$4).

We stopped at one of the boat which sells noodles soup. I made an order and she passed me the bowl of noodles. I passed it to ys and digged my bag for my wallet to pay her. When i turned back, the bowl was empty. He finished the whole bowl of noodles. (▰˘︹˘▰) Then we ordered another bowl.
