2nd day of d trip

now im back in msia d but i stil havent complete my blog coz when i was in bangkok i was pretty tired everyday.coz everyday oso have2travel by ownself wif maps on hands.pretty proud of us actually.haha..d 2nd day we went to the floating market which is out of bangkok city so we went wif tour guide bt that's pretty expensive 900baht per person and d canoe is not included we hav2pay extra 150baht.if wan elephant riding,another 600baht,cobra show is 200baht..so not very worth it bt it was d cheapest tour guide after we compared a few.n we oni realized tat everything is not included after we got there.bt it was a nice experience though..

to get to d floating market it's bout 1 and a half hour from d town or mayb more.i not really remember where's d actual place of d floating market d.all d way i was slping i cant deny it.seriously tired.wat i know is along d way there're so called farms which produce salt in bangkok.

wat's there at d floating market is there're lots of canoe selling fruits,food,souvenirs lo.so if any1 in d canoe wan2buy sth so d lady wil get our canoe wif sth like long stick.so everybody in d canoe hav2wait4them 2bargain n everything.even food oso like tat.tourists wil bring along d bowl2eat in d canoe den d canoe wil go back2d noodles canoe2return d bowl after they finish d noodles.abit complicated la my sentence,hopefully u guys can understand..wat's different n exciting here is we travel around d market wif canoe lo,n there're lots of food n souvenirs can get fr here.bt i feel tat d best is don buy souvenirs fr here coz it's alot pricey as compared to those night markets at bangkok.

we didn't go for d elephant riding coz of money concerned as we stil hav 3days to go in bangkok,afraid wil run out of money.n everybody told us how's bangkok n how they cheat tourists money n everything,so we vr aware of d money thingy n d ppl around.bt wat's great is we met quite alot of nice guys who really guide us n pretty friendly as well.

however,we did go2d cobra show as we didnt been to such show b4.i'll post d video of d cobra show in d next blog if possible coz i dono how2explain about it.wat i can say is thailand ppl is brave.fr wat they said,there're alot of cobra,and many other snakes at thailand.so since young they know how2catch it.n there's a guy killed by d cobra during d past cobra show.they somemore show out d photo of him n i can c tat they're proud of him.

on d way back2bangkok,wat's shocking me there's road block.all d lorries,trallers stop along d road fr far.n our van was stopped by d traffic police as well.bt i wasn't sure y we got summoned bt wat i know is they hav2pay on d spot.so d road is pretty jam up.

by d time we get back to our hotel it's bout 2pm d.so we booked 'tuk tuk' frm our hotel staff to go MBK shopping mall bout 3.30pm(Msia time is 4.30pm) like tat.it's kind of free shuttle service provided by our hotel.experince of travelling by 'tuk tuk' is seriuosly fun.it's fast,fun bt steady.n when he went thru all d back streets,damn pro although there're ppl walking around,taxi bt they stil can past d streets easily.bt 1 thing which i don like bout bangkok is it's vr dusty.

besides,it's great shopping at MBK mall..there're alot of shops n cheap stuffs lo.n around the area there're many malls as well,like Siam Paragon,Siam Discovery Centre,Isetan,Siam Square n many more..tat area is like bintang walk in kl,Sg Wang,Petaling Street lo..so actually there is quite similar to kl.bt wat's different is d lrt is wider,got tv,better environment as compared to kl lo.

to b continue..
