After a pretty long hiatus, it is time for a new post!
This post aims to 抛砖引玉 for people to post more stuff to keep the blog interesting.
This article will be a photo narrative of the happenings during the Bangkok Trip carried out post Sem 2 in AY2011/12.
It all started at Baiyoke Boutique hotel, a hotel that had nice pictures and descriptions but was really quite basic. Mervyn was not paying attention during this picture as he was looking at Mok who was negotiating for a metered taxi-fare, something which was really hard to find in Bangkok.

Taxi-"Meter". Yea right. |
|
The Chatchuchak Market |
|
Our favourite, furiously diabetic drink, Thai Iced Tea |
|
The Girls at the weekend train market |
|
The Boys a.k.a F4 |
|
A touristy picture shot in the Grand Palace |
|
Seems really grand but the grandest thing was actually the temperature |
|
On a river crossing boat at Chao Praya River |
|
At the coconut farm, a stopping point for the floating market, where we got scammed for an exorbitant amount of Thai Baht to take a boat ride |
|
Elise with her favourite elephant, an early birthday surprise for her |
The birthday celebration for Elise was an exquisite set of well designed surprises which involved a whatsapp group chat BKK Trip w/o Elise, where Wan Xin (Mastermind and Chief Designer) went on to devise a series of surprises with assistance from the rest aimed at making Elise a very happy birthday girl. The plans were meant to be completely secret but the cover got blown by the van driver who can't stop talking about elephants.

Everyone having fun feeding the Elephants, it was some special festival and we were lucky our visit coincided with it |
|
Birthday Surprise Part 3 - Elephant Gift + Card made by Wan Xin (Video available with Mok elsewhere) |
In case you are wondering where is birthday surprise part 2, it was a dinner at Greyhound Cafe, for the 2nd time in 2 days.
|
Mervyn, the Polaroid Man, capturing the true one-shot moments in life |
|
Not forgetting our favourite food, Mango Rice, or Khao Ngiaw Mwau Mwau (sic) |

Big boys play with big toys |

This is what happens when you play with small toys (at Suvarnabhumi Airport) |
And that's all for this post. Hope it is an enjoyable read!
