I'll go ahead with a post on my trip to Bangkok since I got sick of waiting for pictures from the other cameras to arrive. I bet Rina wonder when the damned post will show up too.

So here it is, my first overseas free & easy trip without my family. Rina, enjoy!

Tiger Airways's 3+3 seating arrangement on the A320(I think).

Around 8AM(GMT +7) at the new Bangkok Airport.

I have no idea how to pronounce or spell the airport's extremely long & foreign name.

Along their equivalent of Airport Boulevard.

Our taxi driver who had no idea where our hotel was.

That's all to a bus stop; full stop, nothing else.

The street looked interesting, but we didn't head that way.

Our first tuk-tuk ride from Platinum back to our hotel.

Chuan Lim & I shared a room.

From the other direction.

I saw this during breakfast outside the hotel.

That's the BTS Station nearest our accommodation.

A nightmarket stall near Siam Station.

Somewhere nearby.

Along the main road; Siam Station's elevated.

Then it rained; so we headed back.

Onboard the BTS.

Chuan & I later decided to drink; damage: roughly S$2(from 7-11).

The view from the rooms' corridor.


The restaurant on level 2 & the balconies of front-facing rooms.

The extremely friendly & helpful English speaking porter. Should've tipped him before leaving.

These power cables scare me.

It's not the girl. It's the post box.

Onward to Democracy Monument.

Onward to Wat Phra Kaew("wa pa cheow" as called by May's brother).

The King sure is popular.

Hot pink taxis're popular there. Attract more female customers?

Some naval museum we zipped past while taken for a ride on tuk-tuks.

Throttles like a bike, clutch pedal on the left, brake pedal on the right, gear shift in the center & the driver seats just behind the shifter.

It's one of the fort we zipped past.

Blew past here too.

And we saw this; cute invention, really.

I worried about the white chocolat the pigeon might shower me with.

Forgot the name of this temple, but it was nice.

Intricate design.

Even the ceiling was nicely sculped.

The bridge looked British; this canal was just by the temple.

It stretches pretty far.

On the other side, a strange elongated 'drum'.

Another building nearby.

The metal benches there were adorned with this.

Wat Phra Kaew; finally after being conned.

Nicely trimmed trees leading to the Grand Palace's entrance.

It looks similar to a temple near Bishan park.

The structures were really nice.

The amount of detail & work was stunning.

And my camera died. On mere Day 2.

Till the remaining photos are received.
