At Bangkok, we practically shopped everyday and went massage for the last 3 days.

The hotel is located above their famous Platanium mall and shopping was convenient. The hotel room is beautiful and there is gym and swimming pool. There have cabs and Tutu, the Tutu was 3 wheeled and fun. The driver just cut lanes and go at fast speed. When taking Tutu, is like taking a roller coaster. In Bangkok, 3 lines that looks like zebra crossing is not a zebra crossing. Cars do not stop, till someone is dare enough to cut through and everyone follow. The worst part is walking side by side with cars and cutting through roads. Suprisingly, the cars do not hone you and there were no accidents. Bangkok is a shopping paradies, however, at nights homeless people sleep in fornt of shops and roam around, people or children begging on the streets. It was a sad sight, the rich gets richer and poor gets poorer. Sometimes i wonder, why life doesn't treat all of us the same..why others have to suffer more.

Clothes and food at Bangkok is cheaper than in Singapore. The weather there is super hot, at the chatuchak market it only opens on the weekend. Imagine Bugis street but is 10 times bigger, we accomplished waliking the area in 4 hours :) There sells yummy coconut ice cream.



Mango sticky rice is refreshing and delicious



The duck noodle at the roadside store, is 10 times nicer. The noodle taste different and the soup is full of flavour



On the second last day, we had desserts for dinner @ Mr Jones Orphanage
The cafe is beautifully layout, it has a teddy bear theme. It is filled with yellow and blue ballons, teddy bears and wooden horses. On the second floor, it was like a treehouse with low ceilings and wooden tables. The cakes they have are interesting and unique. They have a table filled with cakes and macaroons :) Is like a mini piece of heavens, is like a girl's dream. We spend $130 on cakes and drinks, and its their anniversary so we had 2 cute bears :) and i took the white one heheh
