Bangkok !! A shopper's paradise. But how true it is after all the riots, we'll know in another 10 hours. I've been to Bangkok twice, 1st time (wif my bro & his wife) before i enlist into army, staying at Narai Hotel, 2nd time (wif my Poly Mates & God-Father) staying at Asia Hotel. This time round, we'll be staying at Baiyoke Sky, heard that it's a fantastic hotel with a Sky Bar at the top ! I've missed that bar during the last two trips, this time i will not !!! There're some many things that we want to do !! Shopping, Eating, Massage, Sight Seeing.. ...etc. Well, leave the planning to the girls then..
Here's our a Brief Planned Itinerary by our 2 Shopping Queens, Belinda & Rowena.
Day one:
10am: reach hotel...if room not ready...go sightseeing
Places suggesting:
1.MBK,Central (heard its open on 28th sept),Platinum mall (wholesale for clothes), night market at pratunam (our hotel area)....If go MBK, we can go to eat Sumo, serve good food,heard from my friend as she just came back this week.Also visit 4 buddha if interested...go foot massage
Day two:
Eat breakfast at 8:30am, after that depart straight to Chatuchak, or JJ mall.
If the rest feel boring, can split up and go other places. Maybe can go chinatown for dinner???go foot massage.Go to suan lom or patpong night market??
Day three:
Free and easy??? maybe some last minute shopping before we check out?
Cheers
Belinda
Day 1:
I think its good idea to go sight seeing first and not waste time, we could always deposit our items at hotel first.
We could cover MBK / Central World (There is a lifestyle mall there called Zen I would like to go see) / Platinum.
Then like what Belinda said, have lunch there?
We could continue shopping that area, or go back Hotel.
We can plan where to go to at night too, could end off with MASSAGE!
Plus, where we stay, the night market open till late! so we can even find somewhere to chill..
There is this place, quite in the corner called Khao San, I don’t know if you all are interested, its like this street area known for backpackers and chill out bars, not bad, can go at night too.
Day 2:
Second day I agree to go straight to CTC, never went JJ before, then we could head over to somewhere else by midday or so?
I will go recall where else has good place, I dun mind China town, never been there before.
We could end off at Suan Lum.. I like shopping there! But I think Mr Bryan Lok wants his Pat Pong too!! haha..
There is this place for massage my friend recommended, Asia Herb Association http://www.asiaherbassociation.com/en/index.html. Apparently quite popular and cheap.
Day 3:
OTOT?

Looking at their Planned Itinerary, we can see that they're true fans of Bangkok. Knowing where to go, where to shop and what to buy !!! This is 1 hell of a shopping trip for them !
*PS, Rowe has warned me about her shopping in Bangkok, I hope that it'll not be out of control*
Ok... Got to go and sleep and catch a flight later !! Good Night SINGAPORE !!!!!!! Good Morning BANGKOK !!!!!!!!
Love,
Bryan & Rowena
