Hat Yai Trip 2007: Day 1

My first trip to Hat Yai. Now that there is budget airline flying there, gone are the days of 10+ hours of bus journey there I suppose.

And there is this spin to win game at the Budget Terminal. But we didn't win anything.

After a 1 hour 20 minutes journey, we arrived at the Hat Yai International Airport.

And waiting to clear the custom.

Took a 10-seater vehicle from the Airport to the hotel at Lee Gardens Plaza. The price is the same for up to 10 people at ฿250, so the more people, the less costly the transfer becomes (although its not very costly lah). The hotel is a 33-storey building and the first 7 floors is a shopping mall.

After checking into the hotel, walked around the vicinity of the hotel. Central shopping mall was just opposite of Lee Gardens Plaza. There is a local street market just down the road as well.

Dinner was at a nearby seafood restaurant.

By the time we finished our dinner, it was pretty late already and there weren't much shops or stalls that was still opened. So we went back to our hotel to rest for the day.
