loong gor show me a map.. when i asking him where are us...
then he point at the bed sheet..
 it means.. OUT of the map

1st station
Wat Arun (The Temple of Dawn) 

before that.. we went for some street food.. hahaha






is is compulsory to take the boat as the temple is opposite the river..





a very very nice place where you actually testing your fear of height..
imagine someone that climb a stair will scare and sweating at leg to climb that tall and high temple..
my leg started to sweat when i climbing up..
and when the moment i reach the half height of the temple.. i no longer dare to look down.. 
the most scary not on looking to the scenary there.. but to look down the stairs that we used to clim just now.. and it looks like 90 degress.. OMG..

but when you climb up..
i can say it did worth it... 
a place that worth to do...






2nd destination..
the grand palace..

the king having the ceremony in the morning and so the palace only open after 12pm..
exactly the time we finish visiting the temple.. hehehe..
lots tourist can be found there..



3rd destination
The chatuchak weekend market..

yes.. it opens only on weekend..
we met a good taxi driver and so he brought us to the place..
hehehe..
a very big market..
the things selling there have so many variety..
clothing, decoration things, furniture, pets...etc
really alot..
but i seriously hate dog walking around...
geli.. 
but
is a good place to eat too..
hunting for some street food.. hehhee..







reminded me on the bowl of sausage..


hahahaha
we cant speak thai at all..
when we asked how much.. the girl gave us a bowl say 50 baht(rm5)..
 and then.. we thought is like pizza hut salad service.. hahahhaha(if u get what i mean)..
hahaha..
and so..
dailou started to arrange the sausage nicely in the bowl layer after layer.. hahahhaa
then me and loong gor keep on ordering him how to arrange.. 
wakkakaka..
then finally come out we pay 100 baht and NO CHANGE..
why? 
because the girl actually means 50 baht 100grams. hahahhahhaa..
and so.. a big bowl of sausage.. we feeling so silly we are.. hahaha



4th destination..
MBK mall..

in my life i never walk that much before..
because getting a cab which dont POTONG us is so hard..
so we try to walk on ourself to the nearest shopping mall..
chit chat and talk and talk.. finally we reach..
feeling soooooo tired and exhausted..
with blisters started to grown on my leg..
