Bangkok Trip 2007: Day 2

The second day was whole day shop, shop and shop as we went to the Chatuchak Weekend market. And no we didn't take the bus to Chatuchak, but took the BTS to Mo Chit station instead.

After 3.5 hours of non-stop shopping (although most of the time, I'm not the one buying things), finally settled down for a rest. Grabbed a small portion fried noodles and some pork ribs as snacks.

Then had lunch at a local restaurant within the weekend market, where we ordered a Tom Yum Gung with kuay teow, and a fried catfish with spicy mango salad

Continued Shopping for another hour or so after lunch. As we were about to leave, saw someone performing ball juggling. There was quite a substantial crowd watching.

Went back to the hotel after that to put down the stuffs that we bought and had a quick shower and break. Then made our way to Pantip Plaza (BKK's equivalent of Sim Lim Square). This was the first time I came to the building in all my visits to BKK. And it looks very much like SLS as well.

And saw these soft toys at the A & W outlet. But they were not for sale.

Wanted to go Platinum Fahsion Mall after that but the building was closed for the day. Then went to Baiyoke Sky Hotel area, where there was a little street night market.

And after a long day full of walking, whats better than to have a nice little foot massage session. This was where we had a massage. The parlour is in Pratunum opposite of Indra Hotel and a little down the road.

Finally went for dinner at an outdoor local food stall just outside of Pratunum Complex. The auntie who took our orders recommended us some dishes and told us not to order so much food when we had wanted to. I was glad she did, cos in the end the food was just about enough.
