Last Day in Thailand (28th July, 2006)

There was not much thing to do on our last day in Bangkok. Since our flight to Kota Kinabalu was rescheduled with a 2-hour delay late in the afternoon, Andy went for some last minute shopping for souvenirs to take home. The rest of us just keep ourself busy in our room to pack our belongings.

This was our hotel ... urghh... accomodation!

It was located just beside National Stadium Skytrain Station so movement around Bangkok was easy as we could just hop into the train to go to places that are serviced by the trains.


Our breakfast that morning...with a difference! Fried macaroni laced in secret Thai ingredients. I did not know macaroni can be fried too, huh?

On the way to Don Muang Airport

This turned out to be our last flight from Don Muang Airport as Thailand's sparkling new USD3.7B Suvarnahumbi Airport has replaced Don Muang at the end of September 2006.


Burger King's Double Whopper with triple beef patties ...whoaaa... In Kota Kinabalu, we have to make do with a whopper burger with double beef patties! Pricey at B249!

THREE beef patties served with Thai style chili sauce!

Passport inspection at the immigration counter.

Home-bound and tired....

Thailand is a place closer to our home and yet there were so many things we didn't know about Thailand culturally. It was a fun-filled holidays full of moment of enrichment that opened our eyes and mind: one has to really experience it to understand as opposed to reading about it in books or magazines.

We are now bit by the traveller's bug. As 2006 draws to a close, expect us to go further and more extreme in 2007. Tramping for one month in New Zealand is on the agenda subject of course to how much we will be able to save.

Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year folks.
