Hey... where is my present?

Trip to Bangkok

We checked in at the Samran Place Hotel once we have arrived in Bangkok. The hotel quite value for money. Clean & near BTS Station (walking distance).

Then, we went straight to Chartuchak Market first... so many many things to see from household items, jewelery, clothes, bags, books to pets & plants...anything under the sun you can find it there but very hot & stuffy.

............................................................................................................................................................

We ate at the restaurant with a pig statue in front. The food quite nice but the taste is too heavy for us. Example too salty or too sweet....overall nice.

............................................................................................................................................................

We also visited a temple (four face buddha) at Erawan. We saw a lot of people praying there.

............................................................................................................................................................

We also took a boat ride at the Chao Praya River...

............................................................................................................................................................

Our last stop will be at the Suan Lum Night Bazaar...

We had our dinner near the place there...we ordered tom yam and green curry. Very nice and quite cheap also.

The place also come with karaoke and stage concert/performance... quite unique.

Flying off from their new airport. Quite big. ... bye bye Bangkok!

After

Arrived here on the 1st Nov.

Putting up in a hotel for 2 weeks.

Go pray pray...

... and don't play play

Not having a car, so travelling around with MTR

The good thing is... no need to make up bed in the morning for 2 weeks

Before

2 and a half weeks has passed since my wife and I arrived in Taipei.

I don't have my film dev. tools with me (shipping over), have to send to a friend here to get it done.

The scanning were not done nicely, different tones... anyway, hope the photos still tell the story...

Two nights before the departure, were surprised by Siu Keng and family. Wonderful time we had for the dinner.

The last time I met Taiku was during her stay in hospital. Glad that she did extremely well in her recovery.

Jit Mun is really cool. He doesn't make a single noise though we were laughing and chatting loud.

Photo taken by Siu Keng. Really miss my son thou. He'll only join us next month, as my wife (Olivia) will go back to bring him over.

Things get packed...

Waiting to be shipped...

Still remember "Saei Sok" 西叔?

Oct 1, 2006. This was the first time "Saei Sok" visited Sentosa Ocean Park even though he had been stayed in Singapore many years.

He was now working as lori driver for a manufacturing factory in Singapore. More story about him have to refer with "Tai Ku". He was the closer "grand" relative link with us. From grandfather side. Hey...Siew Yik..don't forget to pay him a visit no matter how busy you are.. d^_-b .. ok.
