Bangkok Trip Part 3 - Chatuchak Market

If you’re planning a trip to Bangkok, make sure you go during the weekend so you won’t miss out Chatuchak market!

On the second last day of our trip, we woke up early in the morning and took the train to Mo Chit BTS station.

Arrived at Chatuchak weekend market! I was really excited looking at thousands of stalls with pretty stuff ready to be bargained! By the way, all my travel partners said they always had a hard time looking for me cause my hair length and colour and my body resembles most of the Thai girls! Wtfreak.

Coconut ice-cream is a must-try! There were so many tourists queuing for the ice-cream!

Photobucket

So refreshing~

Photobucket

Loo the happy little boy. Teehee.

Was really tired after a few hours of shopping so we simply looked for some food stalls and took a rest. No photos of food though since they were awful. Don’t expect to find nice food at Chatuchak as they’re all pricey and yucky targeting poor tourists like us. The snacks along the streets are cheap and nice though.

Photobucket

New rings I bought! Was looking sweaty after walking miles over every corner of the market.

Photobucket

Jol Wee, Jess and I and super yummy potato sticks.

Photobucket

It started raining cats and dogs when we were about to leave. Had no choice but to run all the way back to the train station alongside many other tourists. Never gotten so drenched in my life before.

Photobucket

No it wasn’t the water splashing festival! It was a rather fun and memorable experience though.

Photobucket

Spotted a print ad model who really resembles Brian Elly! XD

Photobucket

Admiring my lovely rings.

Photobucket

Loo’s creepy Pinnochio which I assume would come alive and tie him around with the string at night.

Photobucket

All dressed-up for the night!

Photobucket

Our initial plan was to visit one of the clubs at RCA but they were all closed when we reached there! Apparently it was the Buddhist Lent Festival so they had to halt their operation for a week. Bad luck!

Photobucket

Had dinner at the hotel while waiting for the rain to cease. Turned out the food there was quite affordable and yummy too! *happy*

Photobucket

All-time favourite Tom Yam.

Photobucket

Mixed vegetables.

Photobucket

Signature green curry.

Photobucket

Sweet sauce porky or something.

Photobucket

Cashew nuts chicken.

Photobucket

The satisfied couple ^.^

Photobucket

Since our clubbing plan was canceled, we went for foot massage instead. For the price of RM20, you can enjoy an hour of massage after a tiring day of touring shopping! Again, it's a must-have when you visit Thailand!

Photobucket

Business was overwhelming so we had to wait for a bit.

Photobucket

Loo made a crude comment saying that we looked like prostitutes being displayed to attract customers. Pfft!

Photobucket

Enjoyed the massage so much I even forgot to snap some photos! I really sympathize the masseurs since they had to service the customers continuously one after another. No break in between! Heard that they don’t get paid much either :(

Sawadeeka pedo clown! HAHA.

Photobucket

We can haz pork burger from Mc Donald’s!!!

Photobucket

Remember, you must try their McD pork burger in Thailand! Your trip would be incomplete if you don’t do so! No pork burger in Malaysia! Grrr.

Photobucket

Anyway, look forward to my Bangkok Trip Part 4 as I will update on the shopping malls and sum up my Bangkok trip this year! :)
