Delicious Thailand. Deja Moo





Having had cultural, religious, authentic and rustic experience as well as arrogant Thais, Chinese market and pouring rain, we decided to have an airconned shopping day in one of the huge shopping centers. And chose the same Siam center, where we just were on Sunday. 

But first things first. While enjoying our breakfast we saw locals disappearing behind a wall. We set the bill and decided to check it out. Few minutes later we found ourselves in a quiet and lush temple yard that was also used as drive-thru and parking lot. We checked out the temple and stopped in our room to start our way to bus stop and shopping mall after that. We had just reached the hotel lobby when within 10 seconds the blue sky turned into pouring rain. Waited for 45 minutes and the rain was over and streets started to dry. 

Next hour can by called as shoestring tourism at its best. The bus to the shopping mall did cost 19 cents. We had already on Sunday noticed the pop-up center of Samsung and we stopped in there now too. As it was, we could try on the 4D glasses incl roller-coaster and killing some monsters for free. They also offered some skiing simulation for free. And after filling out a form and providing them with your contact data we got a shopping bag, some stickers and free Stardust drink. Saving and entertainment at its best. But from there there were no more shoestrings, because we had decided to have lunch in the food court of the luxury brands' shopping center. I paid 5.50 EUR for the tiniest quesadillas ever made in the world. And I had craved Uncle Tetsu's (or any for that matter) Japanese cheesecake since my last trip to Bangkok, so I made sure to find the right stand this time and buy one for another 4.50 EUR. One lunch ending up costing about the same as my usual daily food budget.

We took the bus and went back to the hotel. On the way we also booked the shuttle for tomorrow to go to the airport. Once again we ended up in a discussion with locals, what's the appropriate time to leave. My bets were on 6am, but once again they managed to talk me into taking the shuttle an hour earlier, if I'd like to see Europe tomorrow. No need to walk on the edge. Well, we'll see tomorrow. 

For dinner we got the long waited sticky rice and mango and went to bed at 9pm to be able to get up at 4am. Thanks to the concern of Thais.
