Well, we're back from Chiang Mai! Okay la, we got back on Sunday night and i was lazy to blog. Whoops. Anyways, this post will be aabout the trip to Chiang Mai.
Day 1: Changi Airport
Due to some miscommunications, i had to rush to the airport. Upon arriving the airport, all of them finished eating, so i could not be bothered to eat. After seating for awhile, we procceded to check in. It was really frustrating as we had to queue for quite awhile as the counters werent open. As we were travelling in a big group, we had to wait awhile. When it got to our turn, the person behind the counter told us that our flight was delayed. Time check: Flight was supposed to be at 4.45pm, flight got delayed to 6:35pm. By that time, we were tired from all the lining up and everything. After checking our bags in, we went to Macs. I then ate as i havent eaten for the whole day. After eating, we then walked around and Mayyin bought Paris Hilton's parfum. Its very sweet smelling though i preferred the other fragance.
At about 5:55pm we procceded to the gate to wait to get into the plane. Due to our horror, BUDGET airlines, TIGER AIRWAYS was free seating. So that means that we had to queue up again. Wonderful, perfect, marvellous. Flight was suppose to be at 6:35pm, but we did not get in till about 6:45pm. Poor service budget airlines has. I shall not talk bout the flight there. But it was horrible.
Upon arriving at Chiang Mai, we were greeted by the tour guides. We were each given a garland of sweet smelling Jasmine flowers. We proceeded to go up to the bus where i realised that i did not have roaming. :( We were staying at Suriwongse Hotel which was maybe a ten minute drive from the airport. We then checked into our room which i was sharing with Mayyin and Nicole. After getting our luggages, we proceeded to look for food as we were all hungry. We followed baby's aunty as baby's mum was busy planning the schedule for the whole trip. Btw, just infront of our hotel is the Night Market. HAHAHA. And not to mention Starbucks, Haagen Daz and Macdonalds was just a stone's throw away. We finally settled for Macdonalds yet again. After eating, we then had a brief walk around the Night Market. We went back to hotel to rest as we had a long day ahead.
Day 2: Chiang Mai's Orchid Farm and Long Neck Tribe
We left the hotel quite early. As the tribe was in the mountains and it was a 4 hour drive i think. The orchid farm was nice. We took alot of Photos. But the drive to the long neck tribe was very longgggg and there was alot of turning and all the sharp bends made two people puke. lol. It has always been my dream to see the women who put the rings around their necks. And here i was, able to take pictures with them. However they came with a price. We had to buy something. I bought my mommy a portrait of a Long Neck woman.
Day 3:Central Airport Shopping Center, Central shopping
Well, today is free and easy. We headed to the malls with full of aniticipation. Upon reaching the mall, Baby's mum realised that it was the wrong mall. While we were shopping for bras, baby's mum did not give up on finding the correct mall. Her perseverence paid off and she finally found the mall she intended to go to. The tour guide then arranged for mini vans to bring us to the mall. Mayyin and me were utterly dissapointed with the mall as it was like Lucky plaza but only in Thailand. So yeaH, did not buy anything from there. Upon leaving the mall, i finally saw fried insects! It was sick! We then took a tuk tuk back to the hotel. HIP AH! So my purchases of the daY was two bras! We had our dinner at the restaurant in the hotel as we were awaiting the arrival of baby and the staff.
After baby arrived, he filled his tummy with food and we proccedded to the night market where i brought him around! After that, we headed back to the hotel to get some rest as tmr would be a long day.
Day 4: Elephant Show, Temple, KhanToke dinner, Simone Aqua Show
We headed out bright and early to the Elephant place. My goodness, the smell of that place was horrendous. Baby and me sat on one elephant. The ride was sscary as the elephants were maDE to walk up and down hills which are all muddy and filled with elephant poo. I was holding baby oh so tightly as the elephant travelled uphill and we were almost falling off the damn thing la. And annoying baby kept taking pictures and video with my phone. I was freaking scared that he would dropp it..But overall, it was fun!
We had lunch at some hotel which we then procceded to the Temple on the Mountain. We had to remove our shoes and boy did the place where shoes were kept stank! We then walked around the temple where the Buddhist went to offer their prayers. We then took photos of the breath taking scenery. Will post photos up when i get themmmmm.
After the Temple we went to a few places like the Diamond factory but the designs were really old. So we left there like super fast. We went back to the hotel to have a rest but we chionged the night market.
Day 5: Last Minute Shopping and SIngapore.
Well, today was the last of our trip. We thought we could sleep in, but we couldnt. After breakfast, we went for last minute shopping which we stopped at this small shopping mall where things sold there were mainly sports stuff and jeans. Well, adidas there was much cheaper than here hence everybody bought loads of clothes. There was puma, le coq sportif and all the brands that are in Royal Sporting house in singapore. So mainly, that was like a Royal sporting house Chiang Mai. Wanted to buy Puma shoes, but it was more expensive there. So decided not to. After getting our sports stuff, which i bought a le coq sportiff cap, adidas shorts and adidas polo, we headed up to look at jeans. Lo and behold, the LEVIS were so much cheaper. Each pair cost bout S$60? haha. Baby, in need of jeans bought two pairs! We then left as we had to pack all our other stuff.
We left for the Airport in a big coach. The tour guides were so nice. Everyone had a little cute keychain. Upon reachign the airport, we thought we could check in straight away, but we wrong. we had to queue up for some time and we could not check in right away. Finally the counters opened and we checked in. After checking in, we went to this Thai airways restaurant where we head like dinner. All of us ordered Tom Yum GOong. It was good. But we could not enjoy it as we had to rush to queue up for the plane. Oh yeah, while eating. There was this group of people whom we assumed to be Japanese but they turned out to be Thai singers. They looked really gay though. HAHAAAAAAAAAAAA. LADY BOY! Bahh.
We rushed to the gate, we were horrified by the length of the queue but we still queued. We finally got into the plane. Baby sat beside me. We ordered food and ate.
Arrived in Singapore at bout 10 minutes to 12. Mummy came to pick me up. Said our goodbyes and thanks and i left the whole group. Got home and unpacked and slept.
THATS ALL FOLKS. :)
Oh, during the time baby was there, everynight he made sure i was in bed before heading down to his to sleep. So sweet right? hmmmm.......
