they have waffle pushcart at almost every mrt station, on par with starbucks, about S$1. train to saphan taksin to experience e chao phraya river cruise, us navigating with an outdated map with a conspicuous lostinjourneytouristlook. this uncle approached and offered to help, gave perplexing directions in very broken english. he called e tuktuk guy to drive us to our destination. we left in a not so fastnfurious ride =X came to a remote place filled with locals who welcomed us with 101% gungho-ness, ever ready to bamboozle us into taking their boat. it was a private boat, charging us at S$50 for 1hr ride _l_ fuckoff. deseparately looking for the public cruise (15/20baht only), failedbigtime :( made do with another cheaper private cruise for S$40+ a boring journey with bf in suspend consciousness attap huts koyak sampan deserted land ppl feeding fish and cunningly caught them with a net while dey were happily munching mini floating market. think we alighted at chang pier and had lunch at chang pier market. the place where running man went when dey were at bkk, watched e previous night :D
bread with butter/jam sprinkled with sugar toasted on charcoal, oily phat thai, pipping hot drumstick, corn waffle, bottled coke (gotta return e bottle for recycling which means hundreds of ppl had used it to drink before us -.-) and e best ever glutinous rice with mango dressed with coconut milk for S$2, this will pull me back to bkk :) walked to jim thompson house museum, nice to visit even if u cant appreciate history becuz u get to see fanciful urinal traditional silk weaving machine and a huge tank with 1 fish swimming. teabreak to MBK foodcourt, they still go by e coupons system. buborchacha & shark's fin soup to quench thirst. bought iphone covers for lessden5buckseach. didnt manage to visit grand palace as i was in shorts shld have brought sarong along to cover up :(
dinner at sukhumvit soi 38 night market, fried kuey teow & dumpling soup (this soup is recommended in 1 of e food guide of bkk) spent 2 agonizing hr walking back to soi 10 :( walked past a pushcart selling colourful buborchacha bought a pack back. saw naraya stall, dirt cheap like whats new. me dropped dead at hotel, zonk out at 12. W bought supper at 2am nachos with chicken and diff dips and running man continues to run...
