Hello Bangkok!

7 Nov

In a blink of an eye, we arrived in Bangkok. Heavy with traffic, smog and full of people, welcome to the city!

Our hotel, Palazzo is off the beaten track. At least for me because it is not the usual place hubby and I stay whenever we come here.

But it’s a new place to explore, see and experience. After checking in, the group split into two and my group went in search for food.

Street food are always a welcome in terms of taste, smell and color. Contented we trotted back to the hotel for a quick shower and next on the agenda, massage!

The four of them in my group opted for the aromatherapy while I chose a foot and shoulder treatment. Everyone felt two hours should suffice.

So here I am, enjoying a two hour relaxing treatment on my tired legs.

Goodbye Kirimaya

7 Nov

By 12.45pm we were done with lunch and boarded the vans for our next stop, Bangkok.

It will be a two and a half hour ride as advised but we doubted it. Generally, I think the whole group agrees that the place is nice and highly recommends it. Trust us, cuegolf.com did a good job on this leg so far.

We are head to Bangkok now. Stay tuned…

One hour into the journey, we stopped at the Khao Yai Premium Outlet for some shopping. As you know, shopping is not my cup of tea but as we all agreed to an hour here, I did the obligatory browse through. Nothing caught my fancy. Oh well. But I did take some pretty pictures of trees.

It Rained

7 Nov

It was cool and cloudy when my three ball flight teed off. The golf course was very serene and ours to play.

The greens were very slow with the morning dew. Some holes were challenging with intimidating ponds filled with lotuses to cross, some were beautiful with big houses in the midst.

It rained in the early stages so raincoats and umbrellas came out. Thankfully there was no lightning charge in the skies, so we continued on.

As we were the first flight out and being three balls, we finished our game by 10.45am.

All in all, today’s efforts saw 392 kcal burnt, 7.41km distance covered and
13,906 steps taken.

I like Kirimaya and I think the whole group agrees to. Good plan to stay two nights here instead of just one night and being rushed.

We say goodbye to Khao Yai area now as we prepare to leave for Bangkok.

Another Early Day

7 Nov

I realize the only two times I wake up before the sun comes up is when I have a plane to catch or when I have a golf game to play.

Good morning!

Another early day has started. Day three in Khao Yai has begun. Today will be a long day, with a round of golf in Kirimaya golf resort then we journey into Bangkok in the afternoon.
