Graduation Trip- Bangkok(Siam Niramit and Route 66)

The main agenda of our first night in Bangkok is to watch the Siam Niramit~
My friend who watched the show before highly recommended us to watch it during our trip to Bangkok even though the entrance ticket is very expensive, which is 1500THB per person. However, thanks to AirAsia Go we able to get the ticket at RM119/person and we got a fantabulous seat which is in d middle of d hall.

Fyi, Siam Niramit is a world-class performance of Thailand's arts and cultural heritage. This must-see spectacular is performed on the gigantic stage now listed in the Guinness World Records, featuring over 150 performers with as many as 500 costumes. (Information from the Siam Niramit Official Website). Well, I would say the show is excellent which makes my mouth in O shape throughout the 90 minutes show. The stage is so huge and it can accommodate a big ship and elephant, then suddenly there will be a river appear on the stage, then they able to change the background in 1 seconds, well, i m exaggerating, perhaps 3 seconds, which is FAST!! And their background and props are not small stuffs like we see in normal show, the props are so big. How big? Hmm, just realli BIG~

The show is set in Thailand Cultural Center. We took taxi to there and it costs us 80THB/ride. You can also go to Thailand Cultural Center MRT station and there will be free shuttle bus “teleport” you to the venue.

Well, I should stop acting like a information center and should let the pixxies to tell the story.

Before going out, we doll up ourselves in the room since we are going out to club after the show~

2011_0624bangkok0030_副本I defined myself as cute! =P
I love the floral top, black skirt and hat so so muchie ♥2011_0624bangkok0028_副本See, ahmi oso looked gorgeous~
We are Gemini babies that born on d same day~2011_0624bangkok0073Entrance to the Thai Cultural Center

There is a Cultural Village in the venue site.2011_0624bangkok0037_副本2011_0624bangkok0053_副本Lets took a group picture before the show.
All the girls dress nice and we looked gorgeous, isn’t it?
2011_0624bangkok0051_副本 This elephant involved in the show too.
Idk why I so scared, hehe~

While the rest was busy taking pictures at the compound of the hall.
The 3 monkeys slipped into the cultural village.

2011_0624bangkok0060_副本 There was an old uncle dayung sampan and 3 of us jumped into the sampan.
2011_0624bangkok0061_副本 2011_0624bangkok0062_副本The 3 noisy and active monkeys become silent once we were on the sampan.
We so scare that we will terbalik at anytime so we dare not to move even 1 inches.
We smile but stiffly.

We are not allowed to bring in our camera so I couldn’t show you guys how great the performance was. Since it is more to a musical show that describe the history and culture of Thailand instead of theatre, so it might not be worthy for some of the people that paid 1500THB for it. However, I love Thailand and I wish to know more their culture so I enjoy the show.

2011_0624bangkok0067_副本Took a picture with the actor and actress after the show.2011_0624bangkok0043_副本 Overall, say YEAH to Siam Niramit.

After the show, we went to 7-11 which is just opposite the Thailand Cultural Center to have our dinner.

2011_0624bangkok0078_副本My pork meat rice~

At first, we planned to go Sirocco Sky Bar at Lebua Hotel after the show and go clubbing on the 4th night. Then I found out that since RCA is just few minutes driving distance from the place we were, so we changed our itinerary(RCA is the epicentre of Bangkok's clubbing scene). We decided to rock our nights at Route 66.

Route 66 divided into 3 zones: The Classic, The Band and The Hip Hop zone. We went for the Hip Hop zone since it look more happening.

2011_0624bangkok0087_副本2011_0624bangkok0089_副本No entrance fee is needed.
We only paid for the drink!!
This big glass of Apple Maniac(i think is a fruit cocktail) cost 1200THB, and we can shared it!
Imagine, we can rock the dance floor or go clubbing at RM15 per person, mana cari kat Msia??!!

After spending around 3 hours in Route 66, we head back and have a good sleep at out hotel.

Graduation Trip- Bangkok(MyHotel and Soi Petchburi)

After 4 years study in UM, finally, I graduate. Even though i not graduating with flying colors, but who cares, I still a graduates and is employed by MOH...lalalala~

Most of my friends make Taiwan as the destination of their graduation trip, but we had chosen Bangkok as our destination~ Why?
Hmm…because we love to say Sawadeeka instead of Ni Hao. (hehe, lame, i m crapping again~)

So, thanks to Air Asia, I fly again~

2011_0624bangkok0005_副本So, the Land of Smiles is under our feet
I feel that I snap a nice pix n edited it well.

Once we reached the airport, we took the Airport Link(45THB) to the Phayathai station, which is just a 5 minutes walk from our hotel.
We checked in to MyHotel Pratunam at Soi Petchburi 15 (Click HERE for their official website)
We booked 4 cubic rooms(without window) which costs 800THB per room and per night. With complimentary breakfast and free tuk tuk service which bring us to main road. But for the last day of our stay in Bangkok, there was not enuff cubic rooms to stay, so I n MJ stayed in the standard room, which costs 950THB(lil bit discount from hotel where d actual price is 999THB)
We like the hotel because the rooms are clean and the tuk tuk drivers as well as the receptionists are so so friendly.

MyHotel aka Meeiyin’s hotel~
Muahaha!!

2011_0624bangkok0009_副本

My roomie~Ms MJ~
2011_0624bangkok0011_副本
The cubic room looked small, but is comfy enuff with the King Size single bed and clean environment.

2011_0624bangkok0385_副本 2011_0624bangkok0388_副本 2011_0624bangkok0391_副本The standard room are more spacious,
and the differences between the cubic room and standard room is the existence of window

After that, we walked around our hotel. There is a lot of shop houses and vendors selling foods, clothes, accessories etc etc on the narrow valleys.
Even though MyHotel is located within soi(which means valley) but the Pratunam area is so so so happening and is not scary n dirty like those valleys in Malaysia.
I will recommend my friends to stay in Pratunam area or hotels around Soi Petchburi as it is near to shopping malls(10minutes walking distance), BTS station and what important is u will never get starved because the foods r surrounding you.2011_0624bangkok0012_副本

Valley with shop lots, cars and tuk tuk.
7-11 is a must visit place in Thailand.2011_0624bangkok0018_副本We found the best tomyam at soi Petchburi. 2011_0624bangkok0013_副本I think pork is always d foods that Chinese from Malaysia will hunt for whenever we go to Thailand.
Pork satay(10THB per stick). Super jeng and juicy.2011_0624bangkok0446_副本2011_0624bangkok0443_副本 In Bangkok, we can see lotsa vendors selling drinks by the roadside.
And I would say, pay 20THB for those vendors and you can get a cup of tea or coffee which is comparable with those from cafe.
Ice Lemon Tea made by this auntie is super awesome. Sour and sweet taste of ice lemon tea mix perfectly.

2011_0624bangkok0444_副本This is the kuih that we all love. Is made of Pandan.
I cant find any suitable words to describe how delicious are they.
10THB 3 pieces. Sibeh ho chak!

I would say, the road side foods are the best foods.
They are delicious and cheap.
Can’t stop eating and can’t stop licking fingers.

That’s all for now.
*Eww, i miss those foods~*

I watched the Monster Rock show at Hollywood zones but skipped the “Lights, Camera, Action! Hosted by Steven Spielberg” at New York zones.

Taking pictures with all those characters without a long queue is one of the point that USS beat Disneyland, haha!uss26_副本We miss Human and Cylon so so so muchie~

Next we continue our journey to the next zone, which is the Madagascar zone.
Lets move it, move it~

uss13_副本

Lets say HELLO to Alex, Marty, Melman and Gloria

We went for the Madagascar: A Crate Adventure which is a river boat ride with the 4 lovely animals. For those who went to HK Disneyland, the ride is similar with the Small small world.2011_0529USS0168_副本uss111

This ride did freaked us out~!!
We screamed and laughed like hell during and after the ride.
All the 12 peoples in the same boat with me are dry after the ride, except me!!!
I get wet!!
Thanks to the stupid Zebra in the picture above(right side) that spit the coconut drink to me!!

2011_0529USS0156_副本

Since we have lotsa time, we went for the merry go round: King Julien’s Beach Party-Go-Round.
I am a chimpanzee in my monkey family, so I go for monkey character..kaka

Finally, we went to the last zone of the park which is the Far Far Away zone.
We are welcomed with fantasy fairy tale music and this palace!!2011_0529USS0111_副本

Everyone love palace and so do I.
I hope I am a Princess and live happily with my Knight at the Palace.

2011_0529USS0112_副本uss15_副本I love 4D after visiting the Thai Pavillion in World Expo ShangHai.
And, there is a Shrek 4D Adventure takes place in this palace.
I can see, hear and feel the action right from my seat as I join Princess Fiona, Shrek and Donkey in a fairytale adventure.

Besides the 4D adventure, we went for Donkey LIVE and Enchanted Airways as well. The Donkey LIVE is actually a 15 minutes show where we can sing along and interact with the Shrek’s sidekick Donkey.Enchanted Airway is just like the Flying Dragon ride in Genting theme park.

2011_0529USS0133 2011_0529USS0150

2011_0529USS0142_副本We saw this cat(idk its name, hehe)
This cat is funkie and hamsap cuz it like to hug girls and flirt with gals~

We actually finish all the rides and watch the shows at around 6pm. Then since we bought the 830pm ticket back to JB, we just hopped onto the Human, Cyclon, Revenge of the Mummy for second time. We also did some window shopping at the merchandise shops and take pictures around. So, I would say there is no need for us to spend another 40SGD for the express pass la~ Just enjoyed yourself with the waiting for the rides/shows as for us, the longest queue were only 40minutes(I think is short compared to 3 hours queue for Korea Pavillion in WESH)

2011_0529USS0254_副本6 of us leave USS with tiring body, excited moods, and the unforgettable memories.
Now, we are planning for the next trip~
Yiiihaaa~
