It’s very rare to receive hand written notes nowadays and I appreciate them very much!

 I have a lot in stock because I have a lot of things to be thankful for 🙂  Sometimes in a rush to be thankful,  I just text or send an email or message in Facebook, I should use these

Bangkok Market

By | Shopping, Travel | One Comment

As soon as we arrived in Bangkok, Mom and I went to Chatuchak Market.  We arrived Sunday noon time so we did not want to miss the weekend market.  I was feeling bad I missed the Chiang Mai Saturday market and felt I could have bought more things there than here and at more reasonable prices.  Here are some shots I took  

bangkok-market-01.jpgbangkok-market-02.jpgbangkok-market-03.jpgbangkok-market-04.jpgbangkok-market-05.jpgbangkok-market-06.jpgbangkok-market-07.jpg

I love these lights 🙂

bangkok-market-08.jpgbangkok-market-09.jpgbangkok-market-010.jpg

for my dad, I know he likes these things

bangkok-market-011.jpgbangkok-market-012.jpg

Mom and I were wondering if this was the real saffron- it was very cheap so maybe not 🙂

bangkok-market-013.jpg

In the art section- cute these miniature paintings

bangkok-market-014.jpgbangkok-market-015.jpg

Mom and I had not eaten lunch since we arrived and we were getting dizzy at around 3pm so we went to one of the stalls and we had Thai iced tea, Pad thai and Mango sticky rice!  Very good!!!!

bangkok-market-016.jpgbangkok-market-017.jpgbangkok-market-018.jpg

There is a new place called Asiatique and it had just opened – Just take the MTS to Sathorn- then you will see free boat rides going to Asiatique- It opens at 5pm til midnight

bangkok-market-019.jpgbangkok-market-020.jpgbangkok-market-021.jpgbangkok-market-022.jpgbangkok-market-023.jpgbangkok-market-024.jpg

The place is so alive with so many people, many shops and many restaurants!  They had similar shopping stalls as Chatuchak though I liked the ambience here better

Cultural Tours in Chiang Mai

By | Arts and Culture, Shopping, Travel | No Comments

Though you can really just stay in the resort and not go out of the place, there are still some places to go for sightseeing and discover Chiang Mai 🙂  The hotel has a desk where you can choose excursions around the city

City Arts and Cultural Center where they had a museum showing the history of Chiang Mai

Then we went to the market!!  Again I have regrets because I was thinking we will see this in Bangkok, but apparently there are some things here that are not the same as in Bangkok 🙁

I thought dad bought birds to bring home!

cultural-tours-in-chiang-mai-043.jpgcultural-tours-in-chiang-mai-044.jpg

But apparently you buy the birds then set them free for good luck!  My sister said – it’s just a scam! haha!!
