Thailand (Thread 6)

[theflygirl]

^yes, I believe kaya naman. Do it early to get a head start and while it's not yet THAT hot. I think the grand palace opens around 8-ish.

[shalikah]

Yep mga 8AM we can start na makapagpicture ng maayos sa labas at ng hindi masyado madaming tao. Any idea sa ibang location above sis?

[theflygirl]

Jim Thompson, chatuchak & soi cowboy diff areas. I believe Jim Thompson you can get off at national stadium bts. Yung soi cowboy closer sya sa asoke than sukhumvit stations. Btw, no trains near the W.ats mentioned ha. You can get off saphan taksin bts and take the chao phraya express boats to get to the temples.

wala pakoiti, will be in bangkok tom na. basta alam ko magsshopping ako!!!

[baliya15]

 sa shopping lang ako nag enjoy. ayoko yun super apaw na yelo sa drinks, parang lugi sa bayad, kaya sa 7-11 na [textspeak!] kayo bumili ng drinks. hehe

[herroyalbleakness]

Yung free milk tea nila sa The Fifth ganyan din --- super iced. pero since free naman sya, i can't really complain. nagtapang ako to request na less ice kaso yun daw ang SOP sa free milk tea.

[esor]

saan sis yang free milk tea, magugustuhan yan ng friend ko na mahilig sa milk tea ^^

I just learned na 3 days lang yung trip namin, hay sana di mabitin

[herroyalbleakness]

sa MBK, 5th floor, food court.

Present lang yung passport then they'll give you a card. Punta ka sa The Fifth Beverage Bar tas pakita yung passport (again) and yung card sa binigay upon entry. Tas mag sa sign ka sa log sheet.

noted sis, thanks ^^

[herroyalbleakness]

you're welcome Enjoy the iced tea! One FREE milk tea per day yan Araw araw naming ina avail yan since connected yung hotel namin sa MBK

Sisses sino sa inyo nakapag stay na Lub'd Siam Square? Okay ba?

[soulflygirl]

Just got back from Bangkok.3rd time wwwwiii! hehe
shopping galore parin sa pratunam market.
Super mega init sa bangkok. nagkasipon and ubo kami ng dad ko. kahit gabi ang init unlike dito.

We stayed at Four Seasons International House for the 2nd time. Okay talaga ang place especially kung shopping ang punta mo dun. as early as 5am open na ang market and nasa harap lang ng four seasons. Under renovation pero hindi naman maingay. May topak lang wifi pero atleast free.

[esor]

sis soulflygirl, malapit din ba sa MRT station yung 4 seasons?

[fabnprettyjhezy]

We will also stay at Four Seasons Intl. on May 19th. Worth it bang pumunta ng Chatuchak for shopping or sa Platinum or Pratunam nlg?

[chloebaby]

^ sis puntahan mo nalang both.. meron kasing makikita mo sa Chatuchak na wala sa Pratunam. Mas mura pa din sa Chatuchak, IMO ha.. Kasi bumila ako ng wholesale swimsuits, nakuha ko 200baht isa.. anim binili ko so dapat 1200baht lahat pero ginawa 1000baht nalang. Pagdating ko sa Platinum, 300baht ang isa.. So nakamura pa din ako

[fabnprettyjhezy]

wow, that's a treat! puntahan nlg namin ng morning til lunch time thanks sis chloebaby

Will also stay there sis. March 15-19 ang BKK trip namen. Ni recommend yan ng friend ko since alam niya shopping ang goal namen. Hehe nag avail ba kayo ng tour? Kasi may complimentary half day tour kame.

BTW, can you recommend any night market na malapit sa hotel?

Okay na ba na we start shopping at 8am? or gawing 7am? lols since katapat lang ang pratunam market.

Wow buti nabasa ko to. Plan namen to visit chatuchak on our last day (sunday). Pero dahil nabasa ko to, Saturday morning na lang kame punta.

Malayo ba four seasons sa MBK mall? Pwede lakarin or mag train na lang kame? Pag train kasi 2 sakay pa yata..

TIA 

[herroyalbleakness]

Sisses sino sa inyo nakapag stay na Lub'd Siam Square? Okay ba?

Hi! I think Lub'd is a great place and I even considered this on my list of hotels to stay. Kaso my companions preferred Pathumwan Princess since it is directly connected to MBK, and through MBK, the BTS.

nakita ko sa blog ni sis karla yung Lub D and i think strategic ang location nito.

Hmmm... if you take the BTS via Ratchadamri Stn, alight National Stadium lang and nasa MBK ka na. Siam at National Stadium lang ang dadaanan mo. So that's roughly a little over 5-minutes going to MBK.

I'm just not sure if Ratchadamri is a nice walk from Four Seasons. Let's factor in the heat syempre.
