Chinese New Year in Bangkok, Part 2

15 Feb

We all slept well–after all, it was a long and exhausting day–and were ready for the second day’s adventure! After breakfast in the hotel, we took the BTS to Chatuchak, the famed weekend market. Chatuchak is the place to go for discovering and buying things to your heart’s content.

Exciting place
Look at the plump chicken on display! We had noodles for lunch and pork belly on-the-go

Everyone was on a mission to buy things on their lists. The offerings there, in terms of choices and colors, were so much; too much until it confuses you! Hahaha. Be sure to stick to your intentions – otherwise, you’ll end up with too much or too little.

Happy with my pouch purchases!

So, I managed to buy my things, plus some others. I couldn’t resist, and it was a good bargain! Nevertheless, we had a fun but tiring day in the hot conditions – walking, seeing, haggling the price, eating, and absorbing all the colors and smells of the weekend market.

When the will to continue walking and shopping dropped to zero, it was time to return to our hotel to rest. By nightfall and somewhat rested, we were ready for the next adventure.
