Wheeeee...... Just got back from the BKK trip...... It was tiring but still a wonderful trip with many good purchases and of course quality time with Nat......

Accommodation was a little disappointing....... It was by no means bad but just that it doesn't meet our expectation....... Some good points on Baiyoke Sky; We got upgraded into the VIP rooms staying on the 65th floor...... It was huge ass and clean...... Service was not bad, we received good night cards every evening...... Things got fixed almost immediately when its down like the bed lamp and the bidet...... The breakfast buffet has a wide selection....... Yum yum......

My expectations; I was expecting the decor of the room to be as nice as Pan Pac (SG), Crown (KL), Grand Millenium (KL) as some examples but the room just didn't cut it....... The location of the hotel is alittle far off the BTS...... The nearest station was Chit Lom and its a 15 - 25 mins walk depending on human traffic...... Will

We paid about 120 SGD per night including breakfast but we don't mind paying more to get a much nicer room and better location....... Will stay in Holiday Inn the next trip to BKK........ It will be about 50 bucks more per night but in terms of utility, more value for the buck.......

We shopped like mad through all three days....... In terms of percentages of time distribution on the entire trip; Shopping 45%, Meals 30%, Transport 15%, Leisure 10%....... We got many good buys at various malls; Platinum Mall, Siam Paragon, Siam Square....... For myself, many great shirts made at "Pinky Tailor" introduced by Alvin Chia....... In this trip, I concluded that whoever states that ladies are the inferior sexes physically is bullshitting...... If route marches are conducted along the shopping strip, I dare say that the ladies will thrashed the NS Men hands-down in those route marches.......

We tried the Fish Spa at Khao San....... It was ticklish as hell....... But it was great fun....... We always wanted to do the Fish Spa thingy in Singapore but never got down to it...... So when opportunity presented itself in Khao San, we jumped on it...... It was cheap as well...... Something like 7, 8 bucks for 30 mins per pax.......

Too much to write but to sum it all up....... Great Fun, Great Food, Lovely Nat!!!! *Wink*
Getting late, 3,0120,120,130 mails awaits me tomorrow...... Good night folks......
