Day Two
It was a lovely morning in Bangkok and obviously is HOT! Well the cons when you stay using Airbnb is that you would not breakfast all prepared for you but we had of yesterdays' MacDonald. And the excitement of travelling, reduce your hunger pangs (which is AWESOME for me, but not applicable for all). Our Airbnb host, was thoughtful and loan us 2 BTS Rabbit card for easy travelling in Bangkok. Per trip will cost about 22 Baht to 28 Baht; the most pricey journey will tap on till 48 Baht (super cheap). And you wouldn't want to know the price of taxi charges, don't get me started on that.

Ahhh..... Morning Faces... |
We took in-house Tuk Tuk to Pholen Chit BTS. So it's Saturday on 28th February 2015, and we are off to Chatchucak Weekend Market at Mo Chit BTS.

Streets of Chatchucak

The weather got us thirst, thirst, thirsty...

Shastisfied fayse, bitches!!!

We came across awesome cool shop on Artist Catch Phrase Frame

Pictures like this is a must!


*sorry for cutting Mister Faizul's head*
This Spanish dude made a cooking show and super love the limelight! And the rice was delish and a little pricy.

And this colourful ice sticks, is a must get but you've eat fast *melting point*
And so the hunting, shopping begins! Under scorching hot sun, never ending wonderful shops that you can bargain as low you want (NOT necessarily). Buy things you want or need at an affordable price when you want to compare in your motherland. Use this awesome opportunity to grab and scavenge on the items that you WANT! *go crazy* HA... HA.. HA... My cousin told me before entering, "If you want, BUY IT, CAUSE WE ARE NEVER GONNA SEE IT AGAIN!". LOL! We managed till like 2 pm; lunch time though we don't feel hungry yet and finding food in Chatchucak market wasn't easy for us, muslim; so we went out of Mo Chit and head to Siam and back to MBK for Yana's Halal Food! Eat our hearts content (not really...). =x |

*SCREAMSSSS* |

Once we had our stomach filled, we continue our window-shopping around Siam. There is one cafe, where people have been raving about which is at Siam Square and it is the HELLO KITTY CAFE! Yes! And NO, I'M NOT A FAN! But hey, since I'm here already in Bangkok, why not we give a try. Like all typical cafe, cakes, desserts, coffee and whatnot's are available here. It's a theme cafe, placed fully decorated with HELLO KITTi-es and PINK all over. Even the cakes and coffee as well. We bought our drinks together with the tumbler. HEH. A souvenir to bring home! 40 Baht extra for the tumbler. Ok la eh... Ouh yes, I forgot to mention that the place plays "HELLO KITTY SONG" throughout. And you will definitely memorize the song and subconsciously hum along with it; no matter how annoying you may think of it!

Finally found this "Banana Prata" Man; tapi ketuk 55 Baht |
 |
And we also found A&W, so this became our breakfast for the next day! *fat fat fat* |
The day started with good momentum which then rolled down the hill. But eventually perks up along the way. Took a Tuk Tuk back to our apt for 200 Baht; but heck! We love Tuk Tuk. So tips to survive Chatchucak Weekend Market...
1) Bring Bag pack/ Extra Bag (Just in Case)
2) Water bottles (A must)
3) Crackers/Food (For those bringing guy companion)
4) Get a MAP at the entrance (reduce the time looking for a specific thing)
5) Travelling in big groups; is better to separate once done to gather at a specific place
6) To have enough rest/ sleep before going for this AWESOME shopping experience!!!
