Thailand (Bangkok) Shopping Trip 2008

Greetings folks!

I see a severe dearth of postings on this apparently long forgotten blog (it's NOT!). So, to do my part, with all things "Life after ACSWO"... I bring to you a video montage of a bunch of us on our shopping expedition to Bangkok within the Sukhumvit district/area.

It was a short trip with the idea to do some clothes tailoring (shirts, pants, suits) which are apparently cheaper there. We visited this place called "Tony's Fashion House", which was recommended by our unofficial tour guide, Desmond!

Besides that, there was of course the massages that came in 3 flavours, namely Thai, Oil and Foot! We only did the Thai and foot ones... as I think most of us felt the oil one was a bit icky! Haha!

And lastly, it was more shopping at places like MBK which is our very own Lucky Plaza, Sim Lim Square and IMM (one level for each) all in one place. We also shopped at Platinum (equivalent to our Far East Plaza) and Siam Paragon (upmarket stuff, high-end boutiques).

So there you have it, a fun, short 4-day trip to tranny-land! Btw, if there is one thing that is a turn-off there.. it's the constant smell of sewerage when walking on the streets. But I guess it's a matter of getting used to it!
