Overdue Bangkok Story

We were walking along the streets (stores) of Chatuchuk when suddenly everyone came to a halt. I quickly stopped Joanne while she's still wondering why. Ahhh.. the national anthem of Thailand was being played. I've forgotten to inform Joanne on this very unique practice which we would always encounter in Thailand. True enough, we had to stand up for the national anthem again in the cinema prior to the showing of the movie!

Both of us did quite a handful of shopping in the Land of Smile. Our favourite shopping paradise was MBK, Chatuchuk followed next closely. Meals in Bangkok was never an issue for us. Trust me, we've got hell of a good time enjoying the "Food-Court" pricing meals in the High-end Restaurants! Take note of this name, Fuji Japanese Restaurant! Try the Beef Steak!!

Rather than spending the entire stay in Bangkok doing just "donating" money to the society, we managed to stay our last day doing some sightseeing. We had been to the Grand Palace (exterior), several temples, tried the tuktuk-car and even motor-boat!

I've heard so much about Bangkok and this is my first time experiencing what others had felt. I love it. I will definitely be back there again to gear up for our fashionable lifestyle!
