B's ex-boss, M was nice enough to bring us around. So my Bangkok tour was in a Mazda 3 =)
We did the walking tour first, around the area they used to work.
There's this boat temple
Really unusual, and surrounded by high rise buildings. I wouldnt know that behind this place is a river
B and i. Made a small donation of 20Bht (i think) per person to get fish food (the orange bucket) to feed fishes.
B and his ex-boss, M. She's really nice. Has her own business. So cool, to be able to just bring friends around on a Tuesday afternoon!
The fishes, feeding them will bring u luck
Majestic architecture
We went for lunch at 11.30 to beat the lunch hour crowd
Part of Bangkok city, we turned into a lane
Where they used to eat when working there
Reminds me so much of Lebuh Keng Kwee in Penang, but much larger.
Empty cuz we were early for lunch =) The place really filled up with people dressed in formal wear later on
Sticky rice and chilli! Makes me hungry... why didnt i stick to my no food pictures on my blog policy?
Tom yam and papaya salad was so good. I normally dont eat papaya... Shit, hunger strikes...

Haha..I feel hungry also after I saw the tom-yam photo...^-^ so yummy..must try it when we go to bangkok next month^-^
I've forgotten what Bangkok looks like. I just realized I haven't been there since 1995.
G was there about two years ago and she was telling me it was sad cuz we used to have two uncles living there with their family. Now we only have one left and even he's very very old. My other granduncle passed away in a car accident with his wife and kids. So going back to Thailand is always bittersweet for my family.
Thanks Sue nonetheless!
Isya sounds like ur wedding will be fun! Don't forget to send me an invitation! =)
Ying2 yikes i dunno if i can remember how to go back there. Not sure how to order... but i think we can simply do it! Hahah
Debs whoa, 1995? Thats a long time ago. Even in Malaysia 1995 and now, the difference is HUGE. Sorry to hear about ur Uncle and family. And thanks for what?
