Travel...Travel...Travel...
The long awaited Bangkok trip for us three! Chris, Mabel and I...
The happy trio on our way to shopping paradise!
Ahhhhhh! Bangkok here we come!
Right away we attempted to assimilate and blend into the local culture! =)
One of our numerous watering stops...Black Canyon coffee, served with yummy biccies and a refreshing glass of jasmine tea to wash your pallette there after!
No, its not Cinderella's glass Timberland boot...
The face of satisfaction...caffeinated and ready to go again!
And while the coffee-holics filled their bellies with the black brew, others indulged in an escapade of a creamy kind...(sadly, there was no Ben & Jerry's!)
The happy couple after caffeine and cream! (noticed the glazed look in the eyes...its a caffeine / sugar high! hehehe!)
Mabel at the entrance to Siam Square! Actually it was made of fibreeglass...but still betcha wouldn't have known that till i mentioned it!
I like this pic....looks like an ad for DHL or something. Its actually Mabes making reservations for our seafood buffet dinner!
A moment of solace and contemplation...it was posed...=)
Baiyoke Sky...our shopping HQ as well as our hotel!
Chris says "Sawadeekup"!! We were having fun with all the Thai artefacts around our hotel viewing gallery.
And all too soon, it was time to fly home...the happy trio about to board the return flight. Note the plastic bags of last min. buys. Hehe..
****************PHILIPPINES********************
Sometime in July this year I was given the opportunity to make a business trip to Makati City, Philippines. The hotel we put up was Renaissance Hotel near Greenbelt shopping mall.
Note: Look at the bath tub in this pic below. It's so low... I am almost sitting on the floor. Think if I were to go in with the water filled, the water would all overflow and leave me in an empty tub again.
There is always time for shopping... hehehe.. Greenbelt shopping mall! =)
Pretty nice concept of Greenbelt.
My colleague, Daniel and I soon got hungry and ate at this place below. The food and prices were fantabulous! They used oyster shells to decorate the place... cool.. It's located at Greenbelt 3.. I can't remember the restaurant name but I think its something rockefeller.
This meal is totally unforgettable. It's called Boneless Bourbon Ribs. American portions at Philippines prices. I can never forget the taste of the ribs... Tony Roma's eat your heart out! And no bones! So you won't get your fingers dirty. Hehehe.
