Exciting Thailand (First day and Second day)

Long time no post! 

My daughter and I traveled to Thailand at the end of last month.

We left Japan on February 23rd and came back here on February 27th.

The weather had been wonderful during our trip but it was very hot.

I was thinking about to visit the ayutthaya : the world heritage site for many years.

My daughter had an interest in riding an elephant so we rode it. 

I've just posted our best shots on my blog so we couldn't forget our Memories

in Thailand.  I'm going to post our photos in Thailand in serial form

 

  An in -flight meal     

To our surprised our favorite Haagen Dazs ice cream was served

on the airplane.(JAL) .  Our first exciting shopping in Thailand was

when my daughter got a snack in the airport.

 

 

We arrived in the hotel late in the evening
at around 10 and then we went to the nearest
 local convenience store, Seven Eleven which
is very familiar to Japanese too.
We were very excited to what were sold in
the shop. I found pink colored small eggs.
I wonder what they are.
We bought mineral water for 6 BAHT
( 約2０円),  a bag of soft chocolate candies
for 5 B (約18円) and green jelly.
We stayed in there for 4 days.

 

 

 

At  a boat  boarding  spot.

 

There are numerous canals around Bangkok.They say it is called the

“Venice of the East”. This boat with an engine which runs at a higher speed

than I thought, and makes a big splash. We felt cool and comfortable

with a head wind.  Please click here so you can maybe feel that speed. 

 

Very busy river!

 

 

Damnen Saduak floating market（ダムヌンサムアク水上マーケット） seemed t

o change the sightseeing spot, but we enjoyed beating down the prices, bought

a nice bag with elephant designs and purple flower made of ribbons , a crocodile

like wallet for my son and a mural decoration of elephant.

The scenery in Bangkok city seen from the bus window.

 

The area around vigouros Pratunam market(プラトナーム市場).

A  lot of Street vendors have just cut and sold fruits such as mangoes

 or watermelons.

All streets are inundated with a lot of Thais and visitors.
The Streets are crowded everywhere in Bangkok city.

 

 

We tried tropical fruit like mangosteen. They tasted faint sweet, juicy and  flesh.
While I was choosing mangosteens in a supermarket called Big C,

a very kind woman told me that the mangosteens that are very soft to touch

are more delicious.  Thanks to her, we enjoyed sweet ones.

 Our room is very cozy, however we encountered a little trouble in the

bathroom when we were not able to drain the tub after taking a bath.

But on the next day, my daughter found out how to pull the plug and

the water was drained. And also the alarm clock in the room was broken,

good thing I brought one.

 

Everything in Thailand was seemed new to me. That day was really an exciting day.
