Reporting in from bangkok.For those who coming here be prepare with the hot weather.Went to chatuchak yesterday morning.The place is bigg...huge. shocking.gif ..spend around 9hrs walking around there but still didnt covered all the shops in chatuchak.The place is big and damn hot.Couple of farangs blackout coz hot.Im staying in reno hotel.Along the aoneinn and wendy house.The price is ok.But is near to the skytrain stadium.Very near to mbk.Walked from the hotel to mbk only 1 minute.Free wifi in the room.Alot of farangs.

Patpong same like petaling street and all the stuff at there is so mahal.Unless you going there for the show la... drool.gif drool.gif

The best place is suan lum nite bazaar.Everythings is cheap,but must bargain hard la.Go to siam paragorn and discovery..alot of chicks drool.gif drool.gif ...very friendly.The best part is most of them comeback from college or highschool...damn those cute face with uniforms make me drool.gif drool.gif

Got my package for floating market halfday tour only 500baht per pax.

Try to change money in KL....If you want cheap try masjid india or mid valley.The rate in lcct is high n same goes to bangkok.Rate for today rm 10 = 89 baht at mbk and silom area is rm10 = 91baht.

Thats for now....will sambung later.

p/s..today weather in bangkok is cold coz raining in the morning . rclxm9.gif rclxm9.gif..for tmmrw couple of shops close in chinatown coz buddhist holiday.Bro stimix,leg cannot tahanla...i massage almost every day tongue.gif tongue.gif ..its cheap...pratunam area inside the pratunam centre itself for 1hr foot mssge only 99baht.

No 2 and 4

If you take a package to floating market.Snake and elephant farm are included.Coz the farm's just around the floating market area.Entrance fee to see elephant show is rm15 and snake farm is rm20.Before you buy the tour package.Just ask them.Is the package include entrance fees or not.If not,ask how much is the entrance fees?they may change if peak season.

I kena already.Coz the agent say..half day tour is rm50.Go to floating market,cobra farm,monkey farm,elephant farm and thai handicraft centre.

When reach at the floating market.The boat ride is free but only around the river and outside the floating market area.Not in the market.For 30minute.Then,the tour agent will send you to the market.If you want to ride a boat in the floating market.The charges is rm15 perperson for non motorised boat.Still cheap la.

After that they will go to elephant farm.For riding the elephant.Rm75.Dunno either perperson or perelephant.Dont even bother to see coz.Ride in Zoo negara just cost around rm20.Too see monkey show and elephant show is rm15.

I just lepak outside with other guys..for 45minutes.

Then went to cobra and snake farm.The ticket is rm20 to watch the show.Actually i want to skip this show and just want to lepak out side.Then,i heard they will be a mongoose and cobra fight.I just pay and see.Really worth it.Coz you wont find it in malaysia.

No 5

From Grand Palace to Khao San Road very near.You can even walk from khao san to grand palace.Suggest you take taxi river boat to grand palace.For Khao San Road.Famous with backpackers.Price is expensive.If you pro in bargain then ok la.

No 6

Chatuchak is cheap.You can buy almost everything there.The price is cheap and you still can bargain.But its very big and hot.If you want a good bargain.Suggest you go to chatuchak.

Suan Lum nite bazzar is a smaller version of chatuchak.Not that big.Price is ok can consider cheap.But must bargain la.But,i suggest you go to suan lum first to survey the price and then you go to chatuchak.Coz some stuff you can get in chatuchak but not in suan lum.Also,suan lum open every nite from 6pm everyday.But,chatuchak only open in sat and sun.

Sukhumvit road i didnt jalan2 that area.Coz my hotel is around the mbk.In nana i only go around the station for kebab and arab foods.

Around skhumvit maybe bro stimix can help you.If you like the culture show.Try the full day tour.In the morning you will go to floating market and all the farms,then they will take you to rose valley in the afternoon.Its a culture village.Price is rm100 perperson inclusive lunch.

Will be heading to bangkok around 14-20 may for backpack .Anyone would like to gave an short advice on it?..still didn't booking for hostel etc.Might be heading there frm hatyai,by bus/train.

Thanx!

Enjoy your trip..theres a lot of train in haadyai to bangkok..can choose from 1st class to last class.Depends on your budget.Journey from KL - Haadyai 1 day...Haadyai - bangkok 1 day.So you gonna waste 4 nites on the bus or train.Going there and comingback.So plan properly where do want to go k..
