M: Bangkok Retreat?

23 February 2009 - Singapore to Bangkok

It was a rushing day for me. Had interview in school, for streaming into my hopeful major next semester - tourism and hospitality! Interview was ok, but was told final decision still lies with the coming exams. I was able to remain composed and confident.

Evening departed for Bangkok. Ken was in the airport when I reached there, but I did not go find him because I legs were damned tired after all the long walks to-fro school.

Reached Bangkok at 8pm plus, and took taxi to Unico Grande Silom. The room was big, an executive deluxe and I liked the sofa very much. Spent half of my time in the room reading.

See through bathroom - this days, many hotels have been designing their rooms in this fashion

See how many books were on the coffee table?

Japanese lunch at Fuji Restaurant, MBK; the sashimi was too thick! True style should be very fine slices

Siam Paragon

Erawan Shrine

Pucci? Beside it was Gucci

Central World

Nightly turndown service

Unico's exterior view - like HDB?

Noodi Bar - was here in December 2007

My phad Thai

Going to swim~ trala-la mood

Rooftop pool - level 20

Reading on the deckchair has always been my favourite... best on the beach!

Specky me - do I look studious?

Dinner at Siam Paragon level B1

Taking after my father, I like to eat duck meat so much; this was the second duck I ate in Bangkok, first was in MK Restaurant in MBK

Near Pratunam - 10 years ago, 10 years later, still the same sight

Haagen Dazs along Silom at 10pm! That's late and putting on weight is easy ~ I wanna gain weight

Third night's turndown service; this is funny. Snored?? It will disturb my sleep! Thankfully I got earplugs

View of toilet from room; imagine if there isn't any curtain to draw from the inside, I would have to bathe with clothes on and change into new clothes in the lobby's toilet
