Chiang Mai#7 Walking Street (Sunday Market)

All piggies on the tuk-tuk to Chiangmai Walking Street***** This market opens from 4.30pm till 11pm, on Sundays only =) be sure to visit it cause it's the biggest in Chiangmai. It was about 5min ride to the market from our hotel and costs 20baht per person.

Food haven~~ just the right place to fill our stomachs with Thai food. We have waited long enough to finally come across this little food court along the walking street inside the temple area. Even in the rain, we savour the delicious pad thai, chicken wing, mango sticky rice, ant omelette, thai sausages and much more in our rain coats! FUN~~ and YUMS~~

The market offers a variety of goods... including home decor items, souvenirs, clothing, handicrafts, all at cheaper prices than Bangkok. Many products are handmade by the locals, so it is very unique and cannot be found elsewhere. P: "We must go to Chiangmai next time to stock items for the new house!!"

Tomyam kung for supper, before continuing our shopping session...




Our second session foot massage.. We went for massage every night of the trip, since it is so relaxing and cheap, only 150baht per hour. 

Things we bought (which made us bankrupt on the last day of the trip =P) all handmade stuff from the market~~

Bangkok#1 Khao San Road



Sawadee-kaa.....
Finally we arrived in BANGKOK !
Shortly after we arrived at BKK airport, both of us realised that we do not have the address of our hostel.. perfect.. lol, we only knew it was at soi rambutri (just next to khao san road- the ever famous place for backpackers to stay).. So we took the airport express ($BHT150 per person) to khao san.

Phew, with the help of the locals, we manage to get a Khao San road map and found our way to the hostel we booked, Lamphu House ($BHT500 onwards per night). It was a fine hostel, simple and cheap, just what we needed to experience the backpacking life :)

We took a stroll at khao san road to find some good thai food.. yes, we are so so hungry.. cant wait anymore!! It is such a happening place! Full of culture, tourists, souvenirs, clothes and FOOD...

Aaahh, satisfaction...

Walk, eat, walk, eat... and now massage time! Yea, it's breaktime for our legs.. The Thai massage is superb and inexpensive$. U could get one at BHT200 for 1 hr. So relaxing that we forget to take pictures :P
