Bangkok and Pattaya Trip Day 4-6

Day 4 - World Gems Collection, Safari World and Marine Park

The day started superb early
And we gathered for breakfast before departing
Stopped at World Gems Collection for shopping
The gems are too expensive but beautiful
Especially the black ones and light blue
We took a mini cable car into the cave
Like the one we have at Petroscience
Which was quite boring indeed
We visited the  Safari World and Marine Park
My advice is never ever eat at their food court
I was terrible and people are like beggers
Rushing for food and the place is chaos
Luckily I found myself a hot bowl of noodle soup
At the side of the food court which was decent
Tour guide rushed us for this 007 show
And guess what happened?
James Bond spoke in Thai
And there were no subtitle on TV
We had to guess the whole movie
And it was rather lousy and wasted my time
Fortunately for the safari park section
We were all comfortably sitting in the bus
And touring around the zoo
Came to a halt when these camels tend to block the road

Day 5 - Dream World, Baiyoke Sky Tower + Birthday Surprises + Shopping

This was my happiest day of the whole trip
Dream World was the only programme I looked forward to
And finally we were there exploring the theme park
The food there wasn't any nicer than previous one
The Space Mountain roller coaster was totally in dark
Which I don't feel anything except wind blowing my face
And the outdoor coaster was not fast enough
It wasn't that scary as I think of lolzz
It is a good place to spend time with family
And many scenic background for photoshoot
That was the first time i entered a haunted house
But with my phone flash lights I fear nothing
And lead the kids hahax
Super Splash was very nice
It is almost similar to the Sungai Rejang at Genting
This is higher and bigger boat
The splash is superb powerful
And we bought our Superman and Superwoman T shirt
For a change after completed the wet parks
We had our dinner at the country's tallest building
The night view was just awesome
And my beloved's family throw in a surprise party
Celebrated with another boy happily
It was a bit disappointing as not many eat cakes
Some elderly are so health-conscious lolx
Then I ate them and finished my plate
The food at Baiyoke Sky Tower was reasonbly good
Ranging from Western to Chinese to Indians
Sadly they were lack of Thai Essence
And there was no Tomyam soup or even Green curry
Next was our photoshoot time
On top of the tower itself circling the city
Next we were on our own to some shopping malls
We went around Siam Paragon, MBK and Siam Centre
Hopping as fast as we can before shop closes
And by 9pm almost the whole shopping centre was empty
Looked high class on the outside but it was like Sungei Wang
Crowded with foreigner searching for cheap stuffs
My hands were shaky at that moment haha
This cinema looked like a casino based on the design
A place where wealthy people can be found
We went for body massage and the next day itself
We visited the same shop for foot massage
Body massage costs us 800 baht each for 2 hours
And foot massage costs us 300 baht each for an hour
Overall I would say they are good at pressing haha

Day 6 - Going Home (Suvarnabhumi Airport)

It took us about 35 minutes to reach the airport
Upon arrival our hunger stroke and frantically we looked out for tomyam
After some shopping for healthcare products
We decided to sit back relax and enjoy our meal
We saw a Thai Shop selling Thai cuisines on the second floor
And the price was reasonable for us
We ordered Green Curry Chicken
Green curry originated from Thailand
It tastes good and delicious and it was my first time trying out
And I ordered a bowl of seafood tomyam
The King Prawn was huge and mouth watering
Both dishes are Thailand's specialty a-must-eat when you come here
Overall the trip was comfortable and nice
Minus the visits to some product promoting shops
Which I think is not necessary
And having to follow tours has its pros and cons too
Tour guides often bring you to places of attraction
And some of the places was a waste of time
I believe every country you visit they will bring you
To honey product shop, gems shop, leather shop
And many more like Safari and Marine world

To have tour guide one of the best thing
Is you don't have to find your own transport
But time is limited if you are stuck to the tour guides
Perhaps the next trip to Thailand, Hong Kong and Taiwan
I will wander on my own instead
I don't intend to visit honey shop, gems shop or even
Leather shop and also herbal shop
It was just nonsense and irritating
That's all for now
Have a great day :)
