Thailand (Thread 7)

[khaesj]

miamak Try four seasons international house. If I remember if correctly, we paid 3k (per head for 3 nights) inclusive of breakfast, half day city tour and roundtrip airport transfer. The hotel is clean, madaling kausapin ang staff, at majority ng staff pinoy. Halos lahat din ng guests sa hotel pinoy, pag breakfast maririnig mo mga conversation lahat tagalog. Hehe

esor Sis ang swerte mo naman! Super crush ko si song joong ki.

[esor]

^grabe sis khaesj, ang gwapo nya, kala ko nasa South Korea ako 

last day namin today, kainis di pala pwede gamitin dito ang BPI ATM

[khaesj]

^^ Kumusta ang shopping sis? Nag pratunam kayo?

[mama squeak!]

Just got back from a fun filled trip in BKK! It was more of a food market trip for hubby and I. Grabe! We really enjoy our trips here because of the food. Next month ulit!   

[yby2476]

^yes, i love bkk for the food tripping...ang saya-saya sa mga groceries nila..:-)

sis esor, pwede ang bpi na atm basta may cirrus...:-)

[esor]

^uwi na kami later, sobrang sakit ng paa, nag Pratanum kami nung 1st day, pero wala kaming nabili

grabe din ang sakit ng paa ko, day 1 to day 3 puro shopping kami sa Platinum Mall , hahaha dami naming nabili

kaloka naman ang BPI, ngayon pa nagloko, di daw pwedeng magamit yung card, nag email ako sa BPI, nagpapalit na lang kami ng natirang PHP namin, then puro CC na, ang saya sayang mamili dito! dami naming nabiling dress, bags, blouse, t-shirt, etc! Ubos na naman ang savings 

Gaganda ng mall ditey! 

hayyy gang ngayon di pa ko makamove kay Mario Maurer!!!! 

[glitz_chic]

Sis esor anong weather diyan sa bangkok? we'll be flying to bangkok na tom! I'm so excited! hehe

[mama squeak!]

^Are you still planning on going to the Damnoen Saduak floating market? Balak kasi namin ni hubby to do that next month. I'm still deciding if to DIY or get a guide again if it's going to be too warm/hassle.

[esor]

^weather - mainit din
pero minsan makulimlim and ambon ng konti, pero tumitigil din
yung last day lang namin yung tirik na tirik si haring araw!
kaya di rin kami masyadong nangitim 

[mama squeak!]

^Oo nga mainit!    I just arrived last week. Weird nga talaga yung weather that time that's why we opted to get a tour guide/car to Ayutthaya. It was too hot to commute!

Next month we'll be there for another 10 days and if the weather is still too hot, we're thinking of getting a guide again to Damnoen Saduak. I read it's an hour and forty five minutes drive from Bangkok so mas malayo pa sya sa Ayutthaya.

Nyaiks! I plan to do ATM withdrawal pa naman once we land in BKK.

@sis esor: Thanks for sharing about the Sunflower place. I am looking for a cheap but nice place in Silom. I was planning on getting Lubd. Pero mukhang okay si Sunflower PLace and affordable pa. How many minutes yung walk going to BTS and MRT? Parang 3 blocks kasi yung layo nya based sa map.

[prettylalaine]

yes mabilis nga...pero bawal mag-shot sa harap ng immigration...may nakasabay kasi kami na mga taga-gma 7 dun sa PAL flight namin papuntang bkk, kinukuhanan ang harapan ng immigration, pinagalitan sila ng mga immigration...:-)

Bawal din to sa Changi (SG).

[esor]

sis melodymedley, call BPI muna, kasi mukang na tyempuhan lang kami na not working yung ATM abroad.

yung sa Sunflower Place, siguro 5mins lakarin, naku medyo mabilis yata kaming maglakad 
pero di naman sya ganun kalayo, saka madami ka rin makikita sa daan, kasi near to sa Patpong Night Market, gabi gabi kami nadadaan dyan at nag ooffer sila ng PING PONG show hahaha kalurkey!

Me & Mario Maurer!

Hello all, sino po dito na kapag try ng chao phraya river cruise?

Uhm, saan pwede mag pa book and how do i go about the process?

[yby2476]

re dun sa BPI withdrawal, so far, pag lumalabas kami ng bansa (sg,hk,macau,thailand,vietnam, cambodia, malaysia) wala pa naman nangyaring aberya...baka nga nagkataon lang yung nangyari ke sis esor...mas ok nga na mag-withdraw ka na lang kaysa gumamit ng credit card, for me lang ha? kung naubusan ka ng cash...

[esor]

^yes sis na timingan lang talaga, kasi last Feb nagamit ko pa nung nag South Korea ako, twice akong nag withdraw dun,no charge pa nga. Kaya nga nag worry ako nun, ayun nag email naman ang BPI nun na temporary unavailable nga yung withdrawal nung time na yun.

Kaya ang ginawa namin yung natirang PHP namin ang pina change namin, lugi magpapalit dun, mas okay pa nga gumamit ng credit card, kasi okay pa yung rate, 1.38 lang 

[yby2476]

yes, mas ok talagang may dala ka na lang baht...lugi kasi talaga yung peso natin, kahit saan bansa...hahahahaha

^wow!^^ parang ganyan din kami katagal sa Thailand pero ang napasyalan ko lang na temple eh yung kay emerald buddha. Anyway concert naman ang pinunta namin dun at side trip nalang yung pag tour at shopping. ^^ para sakin mas nagustuhan ko yung terminal 21, nakakaaliw kase bawat floor nasa ibang bansa ka. yung restrooms din cool! LOL! parang sa hotel kase namin yung toilet.xD ang nice pa nung restaurant na kinainan namin. very unique yung environment (for me kase nun lang ako nakakita ng ganon) di naman masyadong high class yung siam paragaon, parang greenbelt (sa aking pagkaka compare, maybe. )
