Travel in Thailand Day 2

We went to Hua Hin by car. Hua Hin is the oledest beach resort in Thai where royal family frequently visit. On our way to Hua Hin, I saw salt and fish source [nam pla] being sold beside the road.
We dropped by a street store and ate fresh-fried fish cakes. It was so delicious!

After three hours' drive we arrived at Shelaton hotel. It was luxuary and facing the sea with beautiful scenery. We went to town for dinner. At the restaurant, I watched Thai TV drama. It's so interesting because ghost appeared in this drama. I heard Thais believe in exstence of ghost.

After dinner, we went to night market. There were many stalls which sold local foods, CDs, DVDs, T-shirts and souvenir goods. We tried out many local foods.

Travel in Thailand Day 1

My friend lives in Bangkok. So, I visited Thailand from September 25th to 30th.

First day, after we were picked up by her at the airport and put our buggages on her apartment, we went shopping and for dinner at Siam (Bangkok's central area).



We bought some CDs. One of them is really COOL!!!!! I will write another entry about this artist. And then, we had to decent shoes. Because we wanted to go to Bar "Sirocco" which had a hard dress code. I could find very nice and cheap shoes!It's only 500 Bahts (1500 yen or 15 dollars).




We had dinner at Cafe Chilli in Siam Paragon and got dessert at Mango Tango. Finally, we went to Bar "Sirocco." Sirocco was excellent!!! There is on the 63th floor! We enjoyed a fantastic night views there. But if you have acrophobia, you shouldn't go there.
