So We Walked

5 Dec

A few splashes of water on the face to freshen up, we were ready to explore! Then a quick short stop at our favorite noodle shop next to the hotel, we fueled up before crossing over to Siam Paragon.

The girls were in heaven. The shopping totally opened their eyes. Hubby insisted that they should buy something instead of just touching and putting back, a habit we often instilled in them back home.

We walked until we couldn’t walk and this was just slightly over three hours only. We decided we had to eat, so we went to look for food. All in all, day one has been good – at our pace, not rushed and exciting because of so many sights and smell.

Contented, we debated whether to explore some more or head back to rest because tomorrow, it will be a day filled with lots to see, do and eat.

At a Leisurely Pace

5 Dec

We arrived safely in Suvarnabhumi and it was smooth clearance all the way, immigrations and baggage arrival. Even traffic was good. What would normally take 45 mins to get to Novotel Siam Square took us only half an hour.

It is the King’s birthday today, so maybe that’s why things are smooth sailing. Bless the King. Weather is excellent and after settling into our junior suite, we are ready to explore!

Where’s the Screen?

5 Dec

We took off from KLIA twenty minutes behind schedule. It was a full flight. As always, the girls would sit in the same side with me and hubby in the next row, away from us.

The aircraft was obviously an old one when we buckled up.

“Where’s the screen?” M2 asked.

There was no little screen in front of our seats; no entertainment then. Boo hoo…

Oh well, it’s not a long flight. Soon we will be in Bangkok and that is more important than entertainment on board.

Sadly, service was not up to standard. It was very rushed and disorganized. Thankfully time flew by pretty fast and I could feel the cabin pressure change. We are descending into Bangkok! Yay…

I Love Bangkok

5 Dec

I love Thailand and Bangkok, this is a fact. This year alone, I’ve visited Thailand thrice, covering Chiangmai, Krabi and now Bangkok with the girls; the girls’ first time to this wonderful city after Krabi in October recently.

We enjoy Bangkok very much for its food, golf courses and shopping. And I’ve always wanted to share my experiences with the girls so that they can understand what the country is all about and see the reason why mommy and daddy visits every year. Bangkok’s offering in colors, tastes and sights are just so enriching and amazing, I just hope the girls will enjoy and appreciate it as much as we do.

We are at KLIA now, waiting for our 12.25pm departure.

The Bags are Packed! Part 2

5 Dec

I don’t know what happened but my Zookeeper Battle app is not functioning at all on the iPad! Cannot launch at all since last night. But the game (and the other games) would have to take a backseat for now. We are to leave the house at 9.00am sharp to avoid the morning highway jam. You never know what’s ahead (in traffic) when you have a flight to catch!

Hubby and I decided to fly Malaysia Airlines (MH) again, for practicality as far as luggages are concerned. If we opt for the budget AirAsia, every single add on comes at a cost in comparison to the full service MH where all things are included. Sometimes the difference can be minimal or not much, it is better then to go with a full fledge airline to avoid the hassle. Traveling with children is always best with the full service choice.

Where are we going? Aha! Stay tuned…
