I've been to Bangkok twice, one one year 2006 (5 days trip) and the other is January this year (3 days trip, basically a shopping and makan trip). To me bangkok is like a shopping paradise (shoes are cheap, bags are cheap, t-shirts are cheap!!) and their food are super NICE!!!!!! the mango salad, the tom yam kung, oh my.. i miss bangkok!!

If you are interested to know more about my Bangkok Trip, check out my blog, from day 1 to day 3.

Hi, that samsonite bag ar.. errr.. i also not sure. hehe.. but quality is good.. i've used it to travel so many times and it's still looks brand new.. you probably can check it out when you go bangkok. luggage are really cheap there..

Oh ya, i heard about the protest. The first time i went they are also having protest (that time still thaksin..) i took pictures of the tanks (around the palace) and also managed to take pictures with those army with guns.

hope you enjoy your trip!

Remember to find a lady carrying basket when you go chatuchak, she make the best mango salad I've ever had!! miss it sooo much!!!

well, cos the auntie walk around one.. i went there twice also i'm able to meet her.. so i guess.. see whether u got fate with her or not lar. hehe...

here's some pictures of her baskets.. not able to take her face..cos she's facing the wall. hehe..

what about those transit one ar? very sad lar.. i just pass by bangkok only ler.. I dowan to canceled my taiwan trip just becos I can't stop by bangkok..

I do hope so! transit at other airports!! I've been trying to contact them but seems like nobody is answering the calls!!

I need to know where i'm stopping so that i can book hotel, when return I will have 20 hours.

I am suppose to fly this sunday, 7 Dec, KL-BKK-Taipei. Went to Thai Airway office (they are not answering any phone calls), they gave me two option. One is to fly with another airline on 7 Dec, and for return MUST take thai airway. If BKK airport is not open by then or they have no flights back to KL, then I have to wait in taipei.

The second option is to cancel the ticket and get a full refund. So i picked the 2nd option. I dont' want to get stuck in Taipei.
