Our hotel is in-between the cycling place and Chatuchak. Since we were likely to get all sweaty again at Chatuchak, we decided to head straight; no point dropping by the hotel just to shower. The relief would be short-lived anyway. Hoho.
We took a grab to Chatuchak. The aircon in the grab was to die for. The driver asked if we wanted to take the highway with a THB50 toll. It would be faster. We did. On hindsight, we should have just taken the normal roads to enjoy the aircon more. Hoho. The driver dropped us at the opposite side of Chatuchak. We crossed the overhead bride and were lost. Where to start?
We ended up walking to where the food was bcos it was way past lunch time. We got fried pork and spring rolls. Nah, not very nice. The fried pork has failed me too many times. Zzzzz.
Maybe bcos of the heat or each portion was too much for 2 persons, we didn't feel hungry after those. The coconut ice cream was inviting though.
We found the main entrance, got a map but were still lost. Lol. Chatuchak is too massive.
We decided not to think too much and simply walked to wherever our legs led us. Chatuchak has a lot to offer to Daddy Lim, who happily bought berms and pants. He even insisted on a pair of beach shorts (bcos I didn't bring swimming gear), so that we can go dip in the pool at the hotel.
We walked from 2ish to 5ish. In between, we stopped for a 30-min massage. Daddy Lim obliged bcos it was a tiny airconed stall. He said that I had used up my massage quota for the day. Zzzzzz.
We walked somemore and decided to stop for some food bcos we needed a seat to rest our poor legs. It was a tiny bowl of noodles.
We left Chatuchak at almost 6pm bcos we can walk no more. Our bag was full though. There are so much to see in Chatuchak; Nana would love this place and Zaky would just have to drag his feet along when we come back in June.
It was still busy and crowded when we left. We waited for a long time for our grab at the main entrance bcos the road in front of Chatuchak was so jammed.
Chatuchak now has night market during the weekend. We can bring the kids in the afternoon when the weather is not so hot.
Day 2's loot.
These are Daddy Lim. He won again!
Bcos he bought the beach shorts, we must go dip in the pool.
We didn't bring slippers and walked to the pool barefooted.
The pool was warm.
I ordered a cocktail to share. I asked for recommendation for something sweet and I was recommended Midori Sour, which apparently isn't sour?!
It has vodka and midori and really wasn't sour. Lol.
It was a short dip. We headed back to shower and in search of dinner. Daddy Lim had to take picture with Ronald Mcdonald. He is a huge guy.
Dinner was wanton mee and mango sticky rice. There is a famous wanton mee stall along the Pratunum main street. We didn't try bcos the Q was massive and we were too lazy to wait for food.
We took a walk at the Pratunum night market but there wasn't much to see. Most of the clothing look cheap and poorer quality.
We decided to head back early to rest. I was so tired. I couldn't even finish my blog post and kept dropping my phone when scrolling FB. Lol. The sun made me worked too hard. Good night!
