Was going out for lunch today when I bumped into a Malaysia colleague, Choi, who has been here about 5 months now. He was going out for some random photo shooting, so I tagged along.
We boarded the Skytrain from Nana station, transited at Siam station, and headed towards Saphan Taksin station. Here, we could get to one of the Chao Phraya jetties where we could travel the river to various locations. Note to self, take the boats with the Orange flag as those were the cheapest. 14 Bath each time you get on the boat.
A scene at the Central Peer.
Was supposed to have volcanic fried mussels and oysters for lunch. I can't even begin to imagine how that dish would look like, so anticipation was high. Reached the place and it was closed. KNNCCB! (didn't have breakfast and was starving) Most of the shops were closed on a Sunday over here.
KNNCCB!
Some random shots of area.
Every room had their own balcony and it looks pretty neat from afar.
Close up of the balconies.
Wat Suan Phlu. Had my share of temples some years back, so no more temples this time round.
Petrified baby monks.
Some scenes from one of the hotel's jetty.
The streets here were quiet and the weather was cloudy, just the way I like it. It's a nice change of pace to the normal crowded tourist areas where people flood the place, peddlers and tuk-tuk drivers harass you and traffic was heavy.
Quiet lil streets.
Thailand schnauzers. Thought one was noisy enough, wait till you see three barking ferociously (still so cute) at you. Went ahead, and dropped by again on the way back, this time quiet and licking my hand already. Really lousy watch dogs.
Walked pass the France Embassy, and a friendly security guard told of a good place to take pictures where the building was about 150 years old.
It was just a row of the old building, but surprisingly, people still stayed there.
Choi in action.
More action.
Lagi banyak aksi.
Monkey stance shot.
Don't play-play. Still got cable TV.
And gym.
Another one of those moments where people ask me why are my eyes closed. THEY ARE NOT!!! I SEE YOU!!!!
Flower sacrifice.
