The Grand Palace.omg.indeed very grand.it is HUGE and all the buildings are made of gold,silver and alot of diff material.
we're suppose to wear formally with tees,jeans,covered shoes and no slippers allowed as the form of respect.however,some ppl wear slippers and can still go in.-_-

very tired already.haha.i supposed pics can tell everything.

the miniature of Grand Palace. :D

im still very tired lor.hai.dunno why.think really old liao.everyday i walk abt 10 hrs.leg's breaking.bones also cracking.haha.


i realise kor and mommy's clothes colour matches the background.haha.alrights.im lame.




the cute girl guides and scouts!omg omg omg!so ke ai neh!i wanted to take pics with 1 of the boy scout cos he is sooo cute.haha.but dun want lar.im bit shy.HAHA.i love xiao boy boys btw.



Tuk tuk!i love tuk tuk.though it is ultra bad for my skin but i like it!it just zoom zoom zoom turn here and there!haha..fast fast fast!



we took the 1 hr ferry tour,we're travel by ferry and stop by to visit other temple and see the floating market.the wave is very big that day!the boat seems abit unstable.just swing swing swing.

i really salute to those ppl who can live near the river.bath in the river.blah blah blah.


n im very impressed with the thai women rowing their lit' boat selling food, fruits etc.the boat is super unstable and will capsize anytime.


and they sell bread for us to feed the fishes in the river.ALOT of fishes lor.and they're big too.scary.


stop for 15 mins to visit some temple.dunno what temple too.ALOT of temples i went today.dunno which is which.just snap snap snap.haha.

we're e only passengers on his boat.haha!

we are so lucky today!it is said by the locals that it is Buddha's birthday today thus Royal temple is open to public only for today.usually it is used by the royal ppl and open to public once a yr.this is the place which Anna and the king movie takes place.we met 2 kind soul who tell us alot abt thailand,where to go shopping,where to eat,what to do today since it's Buddha's bday.they're soo friendly and kind!

The statue of King Rama IV.the same size and height.

even the window is sooo magnificent.no wonder it is Royal temple!

the kind thai man recommend us to go white house in Bkk,which is near the palace where the King and Queen is currently living in.

shopping in MBK next.legs are already on the verge of breaking lor.hahaa..i love the mango n the sticky rice!yummy!

the christmas deco is still around!it is quite nice de worrrr!

MBK!but i still love platinum fashion mall more,cos more stuff and cheaper stuff!haha.and it is near pratunum!near Amari water gates! (i dun live there,too exp!but my Naraya bags are there!!)=p
then again,as i said,they's so creative.they actually used all PAPERS for the long xmas tree.

The Art of Recycle!and they've done it!
