Wonderful view of Paris on top of Eiffel tower





Hello everybody..i am back from Paris a few days ago but i didn't have the time to upload those pictures straight on my blog. What i did was i uploaded them on my facebook. For those who have added me on facebook i am sure you have seen those pictures. But for those who have not seen them yet..you can see 'em now. Paris is really nice and a lovely city. When i was there....thousands of tourists visiting Paris and we were just a few of them. It costs 13 euro to get up on top of the tower. We paid the price but we got one of the most best views in our life so far. We just love it and i can tell the views were breath taking!!!!!!!!!!

It was in Thailand


Gosh...look at that..


I wonder how much the price

I don't know what to blog today and I really feel I want to go out but it seems like the weather wasn't very good or was not warm enough for me. But now look like it's getting warmer, so I will go out as soon as I finish updating my blog. I am at the same place and same sofa at where I was yesterday. Updating my blog and telling people what I’m doing, will do and have done. Silly isn’t? Some people prefer to be secretive about their life and some not. This blog is one of the places or spaces for me to express my emotions, life styles and anything.

Anyway, I was browsing my laptop this morning and i found those two pictures. That’s what I call “We live to eat” instead of “We eat to live”. They are pigs but if i not mistaken they are baby pigs. It looks yummy and I am sure they were yummy..ha..ha..ha..ha..I don’t eat them but no offence with those people who eat them. No problem at all for me..that’s their life style and I don’t complain. Look at the skin and how they do the roasting or probably grilling.

Talking about Thailand, especially Hadyai they were a bit scruffy and they didn’t maintain the buildings at all. I know it’s unfair to judge Thailand from one perspective but I am judging the place where I’ve been. Mmm...they not really cheap either but it was OK place to visit. I’m sure some places in Thailand are better compared to the Hadyai.

OK..stop Thailand. I am eating a lot of bananas recently and I don’t know why at the same time I am addicted with Ronan Keating’s songs. I played and played them every day. Never feel sick of them.

P/s: I know..I know ...I know I have to go away (taken from his song)

Pictures from Trip in Hadyai Thailand


The car we drove to Thailand

Ohhh...what a tiring week end? It was a long journey from Penang to Perlis and up to Hadyai in Thailand. The journey took about 5 hours drive and it was very very tiring. Luckly five of us can drive and we rotate drove the car. We departed from Penang island about 12 PM last saturday and hoping everything will be fine. We drove Hyundai Sonata 2.0L which is very good car.


Carefour in Thailand

Every hour must be different driver. We arrived at Thailand and Malaysia border about 3 o'clock and it was conjested. We have to queue the car and we spent about 2 hours in the border. Hell!!!!! the rainy day caused we have to run from one station to another to get this and that. Anyway..first of all, we need to fill in the form for ourself and followed by the car. Must register the car at the border just to avoid stolen car pass trough the country.


The hotel where we stayed

Hadyai train station..15 hours to BKK

We arrived in hadyai about 7 o'clock. O ya...there is one hour different between Thailand and Malaysia. Means, if the time is 6 o'clock in Thailand, the time in Malaysia is 7 o'clock. We checked in to the hotel and it costs about 850 Bat per night. Just about RM80.50..well, not bad at all!!!! I considered cheap but i'm not really satisfy (sia mau 5 stars or at least 4 lah kan...). We didin't know about the place, so we saw this hotel and we just came and asked for the price and we thought it was okey. Ndah palah..lain kali we know which hotel is better.

D'Otel Siam Center


Anyway...here are some good and bad about Hadyai Thailand.
The positive sides;
1. Basically, the local food are cheap. Tom Yam soup in penang is about RM16 but in Thailand just about RM9.
2. The buffet in the sky restaurant is so cheap. It was about 147 bath per person about RM14.70 (where can you find a buffet for this price in Malaysia???). Another restaurant offers RM30 for their buffet.
3. The people are friendly especially the sales girls. They say sawadekap...we suppose to answer kap. LOL!!!!
4. You want to do shopping? Original brands??? Please come to Thailand..because you will find such a lot of different designs and fashions.
5. The city is alive in a night time.....you can see a lot of girls and guys selling "tutttttt" (u know what i mean)

The nagetive sides;
1. They did not speak english. Some of them did but very very limited and if you speak more then 5 words in a sentance..they can't understand you. They will end up blinking their eyes.
2. Thailand is not really a cheap especially the original brands. In fact the drinks are so expensive. I paid RM4.50 for my Iced lemon tea and you can get RM2.00 in Penang.
3. The hotel services were not that good (well, what do you expect for RM85). But the hotel looks grand and quite "roomy" but the services were dissapointing.
4. Since they don't speak english, you can't really buy something and negociate about the prices because it will end up "better don't buy". Very fustrating really!!!!!!!
5. The city is dirty..opss!!!!! seriously..sabah is hundreds time better. The development of the city are very good..you can see quite a lot of building...but the most of the buildings are dirty and mossy. In short, most of the people at there are not enviromentallist (eh...cam mana gia mau eja tuh???)

Conclusion...it was okey to visit!!!! especially if you just want to buy something cheap (even the girls..LOL). But for a luxury or at least 4 stars vacation..Hadyai is not a place for you. Phuket might be a place for you.
