Bangkok Trip - Day 6 and Day 7

6th day in Bangkok - Our 1st stop will be the Floating Market. It was a long journey to the Floating Market, everybody can even take a nap on the coach.

We really didn't expect the Floating Market to be this busy, it is really a very interesting place. To the Thais, we're probably the most "suaku" people. We were so fascinated with the amount of boats we saw, how they prepare the food and the way they trade. There are boats of hawkers selling pork, drinks, foods, desserts and of course, souveniers.



After leaving the Floating Market, the tour guide probably want to earn quick bucks from us. She brought us to a Snake farm which was not in the itinery. Upon reaching, we realised that there's a snake performance. As such, Gu zhang brought Cousin Claire and Cousin Cleo to the show. We did not go for the performance because Mummy was getting all the goose pimples when she saw the snakes.

While waiting for the performance to end, we went to explore the farm. There's a small resort at the back of the farm. Sheneice and Mummy had a great time playing while waiting at the lobby.



Next will be the elephant show. As we have spent some time in the snake farm, lunch was a rush one as the elephant show was starting. We still missed the first 10 mins of the show but it was very entertaining. When the show ends, we can feed and ride on the elephants.



Initially we thought Sheneice will be afraid of the height so we didn't go for the elephant ride. But when Gugu and Cousin Cleo ride past us, Sheneice want to join them on the ride. Of course, we obliged her. My fearless Sheneice.



As we have spent quite some time with the elephant, we only catched the last 10 mins of the crocodile show. It was probably interesting, but we reached there, we only saw the man carrying the crocodile, that's all.

After which, it was a long journey back to Bangkok.

Last day in Bangkok - rest and relax.

We do not have to wake up so early on the last day but probably the time clock in our body had already set. Everybody still woke up early cos we do not want to waste the last day.

We went back to MBK for breakfast and some last min shopping.

When we alight the MRT, we saw some demonstration opposite our apartment. Daddy even go and take some photos of the demonstration.
