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.

See you tomorrow!

Nice to meet you! As usual this morning I went to school with Ping and Asya by Tuk-tuk. But the difference is we had to board the tuk-tuk twice because the first tuk-tuk did not pass our destination so the transportation cost went away this morning was 10 bhat. When I attended the morning ceremony I suddenly felt weak and fainted, then before all that happened and made everyone bother me I went to the office and leave the ceremony. When I got to my office I sat down. Somehow I had breakfast before going to school. I tried to take a rest for a while. After the ceremony Ms. Faa came up to me and I immediately asked her for some herbal oil or anything. And luckily she has it. My body feels better in the afternoon. Me, Ms. Faa and her two friends have lunch at the market at the usual restaurant. After arriving at school I helped Ms. Napa to make a poster for a sport day. Then I accompanied Ms. Faa to participate in watching sports competitions in the field. Voly ball competit...
