我并没有出去狂欢,倒数...
我一个人呆在家
妈妈去感恩会
姐姐在荷兰
哥哥在台北
我只有电脑,电视,狗狗,手机和相机...
今年,
过得并不差
也没有说很好
依然没改变的
是空虚的脚步声
我拿起相机
打开窗户
看见月亮被云挡着
后巷的寂静
把气氛显得更加冷漠和孤寂
冷风还微微吹袭...
我想说
2009呀,再见了....
2010,我会把时间表排得满满的
让生活更有意义...
新年快乐(吗?)

The ending of Bangkok trip and going home...
On the 3rd day, we went to Chit Lom station where shopping malls like Central can be found. The best place to shop for dirt cheap fashion stuff is Platinum mall. If you get off at Chit Lom, get a taxi there. If you want to walk, get off at Ratchathewi. It's not near to walk, talking about 15-20 mins if not mistaken.
I prefer Central than Paragon. Maybe it's because I think Paragon is too high class for me. Central is just nice. Not too high, not too low. :)
I didn't buy anything in these shopping malls though... I couldn't make up my mind of what to get... :P
After a few hours, we're back in KL again....
That was a yummy yummy dinner!! :) I'm really happy to have mom to go Bangkok with me. She tried to keep up with me although her legs were hurting. My mom is a superwoman! I ♥ you mom~~
Ok, ciao now. Will write again soon~

The day we got tanned...
* This entry contains of many many many pictures*
On the second day in Bangkok, after we had breakfast, we took the BTS Sky Train to National Stadium, to go to the temple- Wat Poh. From Thong Lo, National Stadium is the 7th stop. If you want to take another line, it is possible as well, even nearer to Wat Poh.
You can take the MRT and go to the last stop, Hua Lamphong. When you get off from either National Stadium or Hua Lamphong, get a taxi metre and go to Wat Poh. Taking taxi metre is better because you will not have to worry getting cheated or less hassle if compare to tuk-tuk.
It's just 5-10 mins away to Wat Poh from National Stadium, cost us about 60 baht (taxi). You need to pay 50 baht of entrance fee to Wat Poh.
Here's the head of the Wat Poh (Reclining Buddha)!
So shinny~~
The main focus in Wat Poh is of course the reclining Buddha, but you can walk around, admiring the pagoda around. There are a total 99 pagodas in Wat Poh (I overheard it from a tour guide ^_^ FOC service for us. Mom and I were on our own~).
After visiting Wat Poh, mom and I walked to the pier to get a ferry and crossed the river. The place we were going was Wat Arun. Another magnificent building.
There was no tour guide or monk to tell us the story. How did I know so much? We, again, met a nice and friendly person. He's the architect for the temple. Once he saw us, he started to talk to us and explained the structure and symbols in the temple. A very friendly and knowledgeable man.
He asked for my map as well. ^_^ I was wearing shorts that day, so he said, I can't go to the palace today, asked me to go the next day. He suggested so many places for us to visit, really nice of him.
In the end, we decided to go Pan Siamese Gems. It's a jeweleries manufacturer, only opens to public for 10 days for the 1st time in 30 years! Once again, we're lucky. Again, he called a tuk-tuk for us and bargained from 60 baht to 50 baht. LOL
Ok, that's all for this long winded entry~ Tata~~

The ceiling and walls are very well made.
This is the best picture I could get...
There are many pillars in front of it and you can only get the whole picture right at the end..

Row of Buddha statues...
And this is the shiniest one~
Below are a couple pictures of the pagodas...
Of course, before leaving, camwhore one pic. :P
After visiting Wat Poh, mom and I walked to the pier to get a ferry and crossed the river. The place we were going was Wat Arun. Another magnificent building.
Only 3 baht. WOW!
There, this is the pier.
On the ferry with mom.
50 baht for Wat Arun as well.
Actually the best time to visit Wat Arun is during evening when the sun sets...
But our schedule was not allowed to do so...
But good enough that the scenery was just nice~ ^_^

Some building while entering... didn't go in. hahahaha~
There~ getting close to Wat Arun.
The beginning of an adventure~
Mom didn't follow me as she saw the steps were quite steep and her legs were hurting.
So I went on alone.

But the nice scenery paid off my hard work.
You get what I mean now?
For a person like me that is afraid of height, it was a very brave action of me!
I almost fainted when I looked down... legs shivering when climbing down too... =.=""

Is this mouth watering??
Then I was stopped by a man that sells dried squid. He spilled a thread of Thai language to me and thought I'm a Thai. Hahaha~~After he had found out I'm a tourist, he started to talk to me in English. Asked me where I'm from, this and that. Later, he asked for my map and marked a few places for me that I must go!
Besides, he told me many on-going activities to me... In the end, we said we should go Wat Rajapradit that he suggested to us. It was because we were so lucky, the temple opens only once a month! He called a tuk-tuk for us and even kind enough to bargain for us! The tuk- tuk said 30 bath and he got 20 baht for us! I LOVE THAILAND AND THE PEOPLE!!!
The 1st tuk-tuk ride of the day~
See the roof lining? Doraemon one lei~~~ ♥

2nd tuk-tuk ride~
The tuk-tuk driver purposely stopped for me to snap a picture of the palace.
There, here's the factory.
I bought myself a pendant.... 5,000 baht. >.< Sorry, I just couldn't resist.
There. It's my birth stone, Garnet.
If my financial condition allowed, I'm so sure that the pendant I bought would be Sapphire.
If a Sapphire or Ruby in this size, will cost at least 10,000 baht.
