13th May - We woke up, have an shower and headed off to the beach to Sun Tan. Laying lazy on the sand for few hours , playing with the seawater till 4pm when it started to rain little.. weather was not pretty good over there … we headed back home to watch Dvd and had a large pizza for dinner … only Hafiz and I eating the large pizza and Waileng having subway… =)
14th May - We had to get ready by 9am for the tour Jeep to pick us up. we had an half day tour - elephant trekking , magic garden , Lunch, waterfall and etc…. Wai and I were abit crazy ,climb up the top of the jeep and sit till the next stop. exciting but got hitted by the branches ,had to keep a lookout on the oncoming branches and bent our head down. final stop I last hit by the branches right on my face and my teeth bleed abit, Wai got a lump on the head..At night we were meeting our new friends for dinner, 3 of us waiting at Mac while wai and another gal tried out the motorbike.. Wai flew and injured her foot.. Hafiz rush to see if she ok ,I think. I had to stay at Mac looking after all the bags laying on the table.
15th May - We pack all our stuff and catch a cab to the pier and got to the wrong pier .. cost us 150 baht each.. lucky we reached at the right pier on time. We will be travel whole day , by ferry ,bus and finally train.. We were taking overnight train at Surat Thani train station … 2nd Classer Night Sleeper with A/c, pretty Cool and we will reach Bangkok at 6am.. At least on these trip we had tried everything on the transportation - bus ,ferry ,Skytrain, train and plane.
16th to 17 May - Finally reach Lub D and wait for our room to be ok and hang around the DVD room to watch Dvd and do our laundry as well… when laundry had done, we were ready to get into the room and to some packing and waited Hafiz to be back from mosque at 3pm and went out again Till late.. the next day we are all pack up and check out at noon, stay around in the hostel till 5pm and get ready to went to the airport.
Not say much now -I’m too lazy to type more , after i am back from bangkok ,rest for 2 to 3 days I had to fly again to Vietnam for another trips.. flying here and there … a little tiring
We wake up very early in the morning at 9am, have a shower and quickly went to do our laundry..the whole process include drying take ages… We are finally ready to left at 12.30pm and cab down to Platinum Mall, pretty much of heavy traffic along the way… Finally reached there around 1.30pm, we had a meeting point at 4pm so that which of us can do our own shopping. The mall was huge, too much stuff to shop and buy. after we met and headed for lunch.. I am super hungry.. always have 2 dish in a meal.. getting fatter … eating too much .After that ,we headed off to the Lumphni Station around 100 baht .The match was pretty too expensive to watch, we went to the shop see some boxing stuff. Then we went to Suan Lam Market to shop. My first time there although I not first time in bangkok. Pretty Nice to shop ard …
The Next day, we woke up around 10am to 11am, I am getting up late which day ,the bed in Lub D was so comfy to sleep on.As usual, we had breakfast, take Skytrain to Mo Chit station and walk to the weekend market. the place was huge too many to shop we cant even finish the whole area. Meeting point was at 3pm and we take a cab down to big C for lunch -KFC.And headed back home for shower ,rest and I went for Thai body massage at 400 baht for 2hours.
11 May -We had to pack everything , skip breakfast and rush off to Platinum mall again,to do our last minutes shopping.After everything was done , we had to rush back to Lub D by 4.30pm to have a shower and need to get ready by 5.30pm to catch our bus to Koh Samui in the evening time at the train station.Once we were there , we headed off to the agency to pay off the balance and wait for the bus.We had 10 hours ride to Surat Thani. No kidding , the bus really sucks.. seat not nice , little space with alot of insects flying around. Then we reach at a small Pier at 5am and waited to 8am to hope on to another bus for 1 hours to go to Donak Pier to catch a ferry. All of us fall a sleep in the ferry boat, too sleepy for a long ride and it took us 1 hrs plus to reach Koh Samui on the 12 May. We took a Song Tauk 60 baht each to our place at Embassy guest house. We relaxed awhile and waited to 1.30pm to get into our room. the place quite shabby and the funny part was Wai leng having an shower first and Water got cut off.. We went downstair to the super-mart to buy 2 big bottle of mineral water for her to shower. after that we used the balance of water to brush teeth and face. After all these we went out for a walk to the beach till evening time and bought a package for our 3rd day tour at 1100 baht.

I’m so excited on the Night before departure and had an hour plus of sleep. First time in my life taking budget airline -Jetstar on a very early flight. I had overslept a little and running a little late , I had to quickly rushed up everything and headed off to catch a cab to pick Wai Leng up before going to the Airport. After reaching, We met up Hafiz and headed for breakfast at 5am. I’m super hungry at that time , times flies fast and we are ready to check in for the flights. Bangkok here we came !!

Once the flight landed, we went to take our bags and headed to the flight counter to check if there a cheaper way to go koh samui later but flights were expensive therefore we headed to catch a taxi to Lub D. We had an hour ride due to traffic jam and finally we had reached and can check into our room immediately. So we lazy around for awhile before headed off to the Hua Lamphong train station to get our train ticket to Koh samui on 11 May. The taxi was around 60 baht and less than 20 minutes to get there from our place. Once we were there , we were told that the train on the 11 May was full, we had no choice but went to the 2nd level for the tour agency to book a bus, ferry to go there and bus , ferry and 2nd class sleeper to be back to bangkok on the 16 May which cost us around 2000 plus baht - $98 Singapore dollars… After that, we were wondering around that area and kind off abit lost . found a man selling prata .. yummy i love it and bought it to eat … and we kept walking till we saw a temple and went in to see around . Then we take a tuk tuk to MBK for I can’t remember how much it cost? maybe around 100 baht …. We shopped for a while and had dinner at the hong kong restaurant before headed back home ..
We had a nice and sweet sleep last night. The bed was so comfort that both of us does not want to get up from bed … But we had to get our ass of the bed and went for shower, had breakfast downstair for 80 baht . breakfast was yummy and great while waiting for hafiz to get ready, we took a few photos. Once he was done , we walk to the Sky train to Siam. Plan of the day - Siam Discovery , Siam Paragon, Platinum Mall , Phompong. We reached Siam Paragon around 1 to 2pm and decided to go to the ocean world and spent half a day there.
