Hello Bangkok!

Today we went to Chatuchak Weekend Market which located in Bangkok, Thailand. At 08.00 am. Ray one of our Thai friend picked us up at dormitory and we went to Ayutthaya station.

Ayutthaya Station

We leaved for Chatuchak weekend market at 09.00 am and arrived around 10.15 pm at Bang Sue station. We chose to go by train because we did not have to pay or free.  For Thai people they did not pay anything when using this transportation, while the foreigner have to pay about 20 bhat. We were lucky to go with our Thai friends so they booked the train tickets and we got free. 


The Ticket

After arriving at Bang Sue station we had to use the MRT by paying 16 bhat for each person to get to the station adjacent to Chatuchak Weekend Market.

We arrived at Chatuchak Weekend Market, Bangkok. This place is very famous and becoming the icons of shopping place in Thailand. In addition, this place is also famous for the place where typical items of Thailand were sold in this place.It similar to Malioboro in Jogja (malioboronya Thailand) therefore this market were filled with both native and foreign people from over the world.

After satisfied with the shopping we went to Future park mall which is located between Bangkok and Ayutthaya.  To get there we used the train and also van. We arrived there around 3.00 pm.

Future Park Mall

This mall is a very large and wide. It has 5 floors. Each floor is filled with a variety of items such as food, clothing, toys, accessories, and also ice skating in it. But again in this place we were very difficult to find the halal food. We walked around the mall and finally we found KFC there. We decided to have lunch at that place. After that we took a walk and bought some stuffs we needed. We returned to Ayutthaya by van at 17.00 pm and arrived at the dorm at around 17.30 pm. The van just dropped us in about 300 m from the dorm then we were difficult to find tuk-tuk at night.  Therefore, we chose to walked to the dorm. It was a tiring but enjoyable day.

This is my first experience to pray Eid al-adha in abroad.  Thai-Pakistan Mosque After the prayer we shake hands with other jama'ah (Muslimah). In addition, we met a family. Mr.Rodi's family.

Farewell Dinner :( Today's' morning activity is cleaning and tidying up the room. In the afternoon I and Rinan went to Amporn. We bought some food and some stuffs we needed. Furthermore, we went to Woro market. The Woro market is located not far from Wat Khian school. After finishing shopping. We decided to return to the dorm.  We found it difficult to return to the dorm because the tuk-tuk driver did not know the area we were referring to. We told every tuk-tuk driver who passed by our dorm address with  "U-Thong" but the driver who heard it was amazed by the address we meant. As it turns out, we said "U-Thong" with an imprecise pronunciation. Therefore, we understood when we said a wrong to the rhythm of the word then it will mean another word.  We finally found a tuk-tuk who understood our address. When we get to the dorm we immediately get ready to go to "farewell dinner" with our coordinators at ARU. We had dinner in Shabuya
