PG-BKK-PG PART 3

DAY 4 22/8/2006

Today no ride... woke up and had a breakfast in the hotel - used coupon. Only dare to eat bread, cereal and 1/2 boiled egg. Lain2 don't know halal or not.

Around 10.30am, xxx took us in her car to see her newly bought house. Cantik gak.. 3 storey link house. Price around bht 1.3mio or isit 2.3mio.. forgot liou

Then we took a taxi (5 ppl per taxi) to one of their King's palace or better know as The Grand Palace. It is at Chao Phraya... Tourist has to pay Bht250/person... while Thai ppl F.O.C...

enjoy the pictures.. click to enlarge



One of the picture above shows restoration process done by Thai young artist. Took about 1 year to complete. Better than 'merempit' malam2.

After that we went to take a water taxi at Chao Phraya river.. cost per head was Bht13. Then followed by sky train to xxx's office.. I was already flat...

By the time we reached there, it was already getting dark.. I, Pak Aji & Mus decided to stay around for some 'shopping'. While TokWan went back to the hotel.

We didn't take any pictures there because scared get robbed & also don't know whether 'pengulat2' there allows us to take pictures.. anyway shopping at PatPong is like in Petaling Street.. except the sellers there are much more civilised compare to the thugs in Petaling Street (Note: Tourist.. please avoid Petaling Street in KL at all cost.. You get slaughtered & forced to buy at cut throat prices). The shopping is done in the middle of the street, while all the bars are located left & right... You could see some of the actions whenever somebody walk in or out.. so for us, no need to waste our money while we were able to see from outside ;)
(Note to wife: See.. I was a good boy there.. trust me *evil grin*)

We were busy shopping until we didn't realised it was already 10.30pm.. so, we took a tuk tuk who charged us abt Bht150 to go back to the hotel. The Tuk Tuk driver really speeding along the way.. there was one time, he had to apply emergency brake until it slided in the middle of the road in order not to run the red light.. Pak Aji really 'pucat' while we 'young ppl' had the time of our life.. it was like riding a roller coaster. Then while speeding.. krraaakkkk.... wakakakakak the Tuk Tuk abruptly stopped.. we don't know whether the belt or the chain snapped .... terus mati tengah jalan.. we had to stopped another Tuk Tuk to take us back to the hotel. Sampai hotel..mandi2.. sembahyang.. terus bummmmm.....




DAY FIVE 23/08/2006

Woke up.. breakfast (same like yesterday), then went down to look at the bikes..washed a bit, really dusty...

See... we got VIP treatment from the hotel.. our bikes all parked on the covered parking infront of the hotel security..

Then, xxx took us to Paddock nearby the hotel. The shop is selling all bikes related stuff and mostly branded stuff.. like RS Taichi, Kushitani, Shoei, Arai, Shark etc.. the price is ok la compare to KL. I bought TShirts, glove and Progrip handle cover.

Then xxx took us to muslim housing area.. next time could consider this place to stay.. service apartment only cost Bht4,000 per month.. one week might only cost Bht2,000.. easy to find halal foods.. safe if took family here.. couldn't see any massage parlour.. :-P

Then we went to Siam Superbike to look see the bikes there.. it was raining heavily.. Then went back to the hotel

That nite after dinner, just sembang2 in the room until fell asleep... tomorrow we're going back.... uuuwwwaaaaa
