Third Day (24 Oct 2006)
Finally, we met their normal working day. Did shopping at their local market, something like our pasar pagi... bought some socks to wear with my sport shoes, 丝袜, rubber band and a Mickey pendant. :)
From Silom, walked to Patpong, haha.. nothing & quiet in the morning.
Went to Watson to get a Sofy. Ha... Made in Thailand. The cashier gave me a coupon with 15baht written... he explained the usage of it and I couldn't understand him but still nodded my head... not going to use it afterall. :P
After met up with the other girl & auntie, we decided to go Grand Palace with taxi. Hehehe...I wore the skirt that I bought from Chatuchat. Admission fee is B$250. This was the place I took the most photos... Has helped a lenglui tourist take photo with her black bf. A pleasure it was. :)
My colleague and I stood infront of the golden bell and took its photo for 30 minutes... don't know whether the reflection will give extra darkening effect even after I had applied SunPlay SPF130. :P Just watch and see.
After the temple, we saw changing guards at the Grand Palace. :) "Tik... Tak... Tik... Tak..." That was how their boots sounded. We took turns to line up behind the guards and took picture. :) Then made funny face behind the guard infront of palace. :D
Dehydrated (although I bought my 1.5L ginnie bottle with me and had refill drinking water at the temple) and hungry, we decided to walk across to the market opposite Grand Palace and hunt for food. Watermelon was the first thing I wanted. :D Then we had some vegetarian dishes that they sell during this 九皇爷season. Bitter gourd & mushroom soup, vegetarian fried chicken cubes that taste like kacang kuda, and a vegetarian otak-otak. :)
We then went to Wat Arun, across the bridge from Grand Palace in a taxi. Entrace for Wat Arun (Temple of Dawn) is B$20. Worth it. Ichiban! It has some influence of Chinese culture, having statues like 关公, and using porcelain plates as flower deco for the pagoda's wall. Ooohh... just like country style lace. :) They had closed the levels above 1st stage, and we stood at the tower, looking at the view of Chao Phraya River. (You can imagine how beautiful it was, till my camera battery went flat.) :)
There were stalls selling souvenirs outside of Wat Arun. Ah...then we found two botak mat salleh were sitting at the river bank and faced the Wat Arun. We bought some cold drink and sat there too. Huuuuuu...... ini dia! Sun set at Wat Arun. Ha... Couldn't take picture... so had to look at it for 10 minutes... to keep it in my mind... a beautiful memory...
Finish at 5.30pm, we got back to hotel at 6.30pm. The guys didn't join us for tourist spot. They went shopping instead during the afternoon.
At 7.30pm, we went for dinner, at the same "Poom.. Poom..." restaurant near Sala Deang station. This time we had fried chicken wings.. (highly recommended), barbeque prawn (shouldn't be missed!), more fried paku, tom yam kung, fried squid with soy sauce, steamed siakap(the only fish I had in Bangkok), fried black pepper sauce ostrich(they have very nice black pepper sauce). Hmm.. Chang beer & chalong to drink. :) B$1710 for 6 person. Worth it.
We bought some mangoes from the mobile vendor after our dinner.
We took a taxi to Suan Lom Night Bazaar from hotel. Only B$40 with meter taxi. Lucky that we got down from the taxi that wanted to charge us B$100.
Big Wheel! That was the first thing that caught our attention. Uncle boss & auntie didn't want to get on it. The 4 of us each pay B$100 for 6 rounds. Took some picture but my camera didn't work well for night view because of the moving wheel. :P
Paid B$10 to see my weight at the weighting machine. 50.3Kg. OMG! (I am sure there were too many prawns, guavas, tom yam kung, mangoes, chang beer, chalong in my stomach.) Went to toilet to let go some....huuuuuuuuuuuuu.....
There were singers on stage at the eateries... The boy band dance quite well. Took a short video.
Shopping again! I bought a matching purse for my handbag. Heheheh...
After that we went back to PatPong in 2 tuk tuk. Wow... they can really race... Sekelip mata sudah sampai. B$50 each tuk tuk.
Ha.... this time we got to see more... it was 10.30pm. Walking at the street, there will be many of them showing you a menu of services they have. "Ping Pong show" or was it "Pim Pom show"? "Banana Show? Open Coca-cola?" The will follow you and tell you the price. Can't even tell if those I saw were real women or transvestite. Then I saw there was one lane with the signage "Dream boys...."
We have auntie & uncle in our team, so the young man pointed at auntie and told them, "Mommy scold...". He pointed at uncle and said, "Daddy also scold." Uncle said, "Daddy won't scold, daddy will follow.". Hahahaha.
We walked to the night bazaar instead. Bought mangosteen, B$100/kg. Expensive, huh!
11.30pm, we were safe at the hotel. I slept late and everyone knew about it... How come? Because I shared the same room with auntie and she became my announcer. Hmm.... Everyone in the team knew how much I spent and what I bought...
Fourth Day: 25 Oct 2006
Arrived early at the airport at 8am, avoided the jam. We could only start to check in at 8.30am.
My luggage has increased its weight from 4kg to 9kg. :) Haha...
After we paid for airport tax (B$500 per head), we still have 30 minutes for tea and snack at Burger King. Hmm... the fries are not bad. They serves thai chilli sauce. :)
Lucky for us, the flight was not delayed...We went on board at 9.30am as scheduled. The plane stayed on 5 minutes longer in the air than the normal 2hr 5min because there was emergency caused by weather... Arrived safely at airport at 1.40pm.
Oooh... Got a 1L Martell Cognag for my sis wedding from Duty Free. 10% discount with HSBC credit card.
Ah... a wonderful trip... I spent RM600 on food, internal transport & shopping. :PGet one and see a NEW YOU today!
I was walking alone surrounding Bantey Srei, saw a pretty girl was playing with sand... She posed for my camera with an eye catching smile. She then stood up to do some dance steps of the Apsara dancing with the background music that we heard from the locals who were playing the traditional music instruments under the tree beside the palace. She is so professional as a 5 years old.
While Amigo was taking a nap, I sketched the image of Angkor Wat.
Wah, not easy to do because it has been so long that I didn't draw anything with my own hand...
Flight to M'sia was delayed for 1 hr. We had another hour of loitering & shopping at Siem Reap Airport.Sorry. 我找到清版照片了。:)

The Angkor Pui Gang!
