Bangkok (Day 1): Airport, Narai Hotel & Pat Pong

It has been a while since I blog last. I won’t give lame excuse as usual such as busy or not in the mood even though it’s fact.

25 days after I came back from Bangkok, now I start writing.

No picture for the first day I reached Bangkok. Arrived at the airport around 4.30pm (if not mistaken) Bangkok time and we took cab to Narai Hotel, Silom. It cost me around 430 baht.

Picture was taken from here.

Too bad I forgot to take picture of the hotel including the big pool, nice room and the building itself from the outside. I’d suggest this hotel to you if you want to go to Bangkok. But it depends on what you are looking for in Bangkok. If you are looking for Mall, you should stay in Pratunam or Sukhumvit. But if you are looking for night life and the famous night market – Pat Pong, you should stay in Silom. Another part of Bangkok is Sathorn which I would put it last in my list.

I reached hotel around 7pm and unpacked everything. Then, showered and got ready to go out.

I walked to Pat Pong since it was not far from our hotel.

Hmm.

It is a night market that you can get whatever stuff you want. Just say it out, and you get it. Not only things, but human being! Hahahahaha.

I was hungry. It’s not nice to walk with empty stomach right? So, I decided to find a restaurant and if possible a Tomyam restaurant. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find any and end up eating at Pizza Hut. These were the foods that my friend and I ordered:

This was what I ordered. Spicy seafood spaghetti. It was VERY spicy!

This was what my friend ordered. Black spaghetti with mussel. My first time see and taste this black spaghetti.

After finished our dinner. I started to walk around the night market. So many invitation from the people around there. Two most famous were porn DVD and special package for adult’s show. The most famous show was Ping Pong show! Don’t ask me. I didn’t go :-)

We didn’t buy anything but looked around and tried to find things that we would like to buy for souvenir.

Then, we walked to the hotel and found a good place for massage. I didn’t want a hanky panky massage place. See… how good am I? >:-)

As soon as I reached hotel, I went to the hotel staff to use the telephone. I needed to confirm about the tour to Floating Market, Kwai River and Tiger Temple with the agency that was suggested by our friends. I managed to call them and confirm about the time and place to wait. 6.45am at our hotel. That was convenient enough.

I walked to my room, took a hot shower and went to bed while watching TV until I fell asleep.

Any question, readers?
