how was your Valentines?

This year my Valentine's Day was... LEGEND... waitforit... ARY! haha..

As what my previous post stated, i spent the special day with my BFF of 15 years and counting.. we actually planned this trip in January.. we took a short drive of 1.5 hours up North to reach our destination!

Can you guess where? hehe..

Well.. we went to The LOST WORLD of TAMBUN!!!

We were really excited about this trip as it was the 1st trip just the both of us for 2014 :)

We prep ourselves before we hit off to Ipoh..


Our first stop was to B & L (Ben & Lynette)













Verdict
Creme brûlée - i had better ones
Pizza - ok, not awesome
Pasta - sauce not too rich and creamy (which i like) BUT the spaghetti wasn't al dente 

After our lunch, we headed straight to the LOST WORLD.. room wasn't ready YET at 1pm and we had to wait for another 2 hours so we walked across to the theme park











While waiting for tiger show.. *ahem* correction.. tiger FEEDING show at 3pm..



The tiger cooling himself off in the water





After the tiger FEEDING show, we went back to the hotel to check in and quickly changed to our bikini! :)

Headed back out to the 'beach'



After taking some photos, we went to rent a locker and stuffed everything inside.. we went for the water slides.. 

When we were done, it was time to cam-whore!


Took a selfie with my bff but she was busy taking a selfie too







At night, we went back again to the water park.. this time was for the hot spring..





The moon on Valentine's day was particularly round and bright


The next day, we checked out by 12.30pm and headed out for dim sum!


Next stop was for 'tau foo fan' @ bean curd jelly.. it was a drive thru.. the guy will come to our car to take orders, we ate in the car, return the bowl and drive off


We also bought the famous curry chicken in bread


Overall i had an AWESOME Vday.. who says we need a bf? :P hahaha

a hen's trip?

I just came back from my 3rd trip from Bangkok, Thailand! my 1st and 2nd trip was last year.. now i really MUST emphasize again that... i WILL travel to bkk yearly!!

Anyways, this time i went with my girl friends.. one of them will be getting married in 2 months hence we decided to go bkk.. where else can we get cheap booze, great shopping and nice massages? :P we all bought our airtix and accommodation last year and we've been waiting anxiously for the trip.. it was a 4D3N hen's trip!

We flew with MAS and we each had 37kg including hand carry.. it was an awesome flight.. and we got in flight entertainment, food and wine :D

Guess which one is my luggage.. hahaha..

After we landed, we went straight to the hotel to check in.. we stayed at Le Fenix which is on sukhumvit soi 11.. the nearest BTS station is Nana.. we quickly refreshed ourselves and headed out again.. to Platinum Mall..

The colorful juices.. yum yum

We spent about 4 hours shopping and then headed to Supanniga Eating Room for dinner






Then we stopped by The Iron Fairies but we weren't allow to go in as we all were in our sandals! haha..


Do you know what are those??

It is fairy dust!! *sprinkle sprinkle*

Since we can't go in, we went to a bar nearby.. Wine Republic.. and we had wine and chatted..


I am not a fan of red so i ordered white, Yellowtail

The next day we went Terminal 21




Jaspal was on 60% sale and i only bought a pair of shorts :(

Me and my friend went to visit the toilets on each floor.. why? well coz each floor has a different country theme!

Starting from the LG floor, it is Caribbean..




Then G floor, it is Rome


M floor, it is Paris



1st floor, Tokyo



2nd floor, London



3rd floor, Istanbul



4th floor, San Francisco (city)







5th floor, San Francisco (pier)



After Terminal 21, we adjourned to Water Library @ Chamchuri Square for our lunch


It was fine dining BUT the price wasn't too bad.. lunch menu created by chef miro keller




We all ordered 2 course which is 890baht

The croissant, hard bread and truffle butter were AWESOME!

 Tartar of US scallop with wasabi and green apple *speechless yum*

Mushroom soup with bacon foam and croutons 

Homemade tofu with foie gras

Seabass with japanese yuzu and truffle butter

Tenderloin lamb

Water Library burger

After our lunch, we went to Siam Paragon and saw these beautiful scooters by Yamaha



Massage is a MUST in Bangkok.. so we went to Health Land for a good 3 hours massage (foot and body)


For dinner, we went to Thai Lao Yeh







Instead of flowers or candles as center piece, they have fresh cabbage and veggie for us to eat




After dinner, we went back to hotel for a quick change, shower and time to hit the club! to celebrate with the soon to be bride

As for warm up, we had a bottle of champagne and a shot of tequila each of us

Me and the bride to be

The four of us.. before we got really wasted

Like we all agreed, what happened in Bangkok stays in Bangkok.. so yea, i can't tell :P sorry... hahaha

The next day we all managed to drag our asses up in the morning for the Chatuchak market! i was there for 4 hours and i took a cab back to the hotel and slept.. too tired and sleepy..

By 6pm, we all got ready and went out for dinner.. our last dinner in bkk..

We went to Cabbages & Condoms.. yes, it is a restaurant and i do not know how these two items are even related :P







Man of rubber!!










Instead of giving sweets or wet tissues when they give out the bill, they gave us condoms! safe sex ppl!

This was what greeted us when we walked out.. yes, more condoms! hahaha...

Overall we had an AWESOME trip.. i love going to Bangkok.. for the food, shopping and massages

Although i didn't shop much, but i still enjoy my trip..

My bkk shopping hauls

The junkfood which took most of the luggage space

Oil scent.. there goes my 3kg of luggage


Burner.. only 250baht each from chatuchak market

Bird cage candle holder, 190baht

Another oil burner

My clothes.. yes, that is it.. for me..

That is all.. for this trip.. can't wait for the next one! :D
