Vimanmek visit
Wake up 7am.Will meet Mint at 9 a.m this morning.Get things prepared and want to be puntual but she write me a sms to see if she can delay to 10 am.Alright .Maybe i hang around the station to wait her come.Someone in the ASOK station stare at me .At first i am thinking did i wear wrong clothes and forget to comb the hair something like that .She looks familiar but not sure is that Joyce .Keep thinking about that becasue it is probably her school time at 9 am.Doesn't matter.I have confirmed to meet her tomorrow.I will know the answer.
Mint come eariler than that what we planned at 10 am .She 'd like to go Siam to check her bank account first.Catch a taxi right away after the money business to the Vimanmek.Before that mint want to get something to eat for breakfast but she eat less from my observation these days .I know she need to gain more weight for the job .So she better eat more .
Get some tickets at the entrance for the Vimanmek.It's worth to vist there as it is the world's largest golden teakwood mansion.Watch a stage performance about traditional thai cultural heritage.The clothing ,dancing is cool tho.Get to the locker room to keep the shoes there and wait for the guide to take us in the mansion.A lot of story inside the mansion.It divided by different colour in which different king will seat in different room regard to the colour assigned.Lots of precious stuff inside which is imported from abroad as a gift to the king.Very nice building and it is hard to get bored there .The scenery will attract u a lot .Believe me !!
After that we go to the Ananda Samakhom Throne hall which is sited next to the Vimanmek.The rule there is kind of straight that no camera even in the gardern outside there.It looks like middle age European building.When u jsut go inside .It is more like the european church with the amzing dome and the painting on it .Stay there for 15 minutes and take a bus to Thewet.It didn't mention much on the tourist map .Mint take me there as a local people .That's the way i like the treavel the most .Live like the local peopel and experience what they experience everyday life .See someone acting on the street and mint tell me he is a famous actor in thailand.Stand alongside them and see for a little while.On the way to the restaurant mint meet a guy (old friend) .She told me that he is the guy use to throw water to her at the Songkran days.She even report that to the police .But you can't notices that from the way they are talking .Mint buy a chiffon cake at the street store .It's green in colour with a cream sandwiched.We ate that after our lunch of Khao man kai.It 's funny that we both don't like to eat the chicken skin.HAHA.After that.we walk a while and see someone protest on the street .A real crowd but they are cool becasue they didn't yell.Walk passed some local university there .Take a look inside and we chat a bit about she is good at her group when study .Smartie!!After that we go to visit Wat po.It's the buddha lean against the floor like the sleeping gesture.Hard to take picture for that as i am not professional.It's long and big and it's hard for amateur like me to take a good picture of it .Take the river taxi from there across the river to Wat Arun.Again it is nice place as well .But the building is too tall that my camera can't take the whole picture .Shit!!
(Wat Po )
It's hot day and the time is 3pm .Decided to go back hotel and get change before we hang out a gain this evening .We take Tuk-Tuk from there .A little traffice but it's not that bad becasue i can have more time to look around the city in the car.Lost of things missing in out life .You can probably find it back in Thailand .That's why i addicted into it .So special!!
Mint decided to take a nap while i take a bath .She is tired for the whole day walking and talking .She is a good guide.Appreciate that much!! Cell phone ringing as Paurenna calling.Kind of suprise becasue i thought we didn't have a chance to keep contact again before i leave.She told me that she get serious temperature fluctuate .Her voice is kind of weak and soft .I think she is really feeling unwell.She is resting in Mission Hospital .Not sure how to get to there .Sorry to wake mint up and tell her to bring me there.We take a taxi there but unfourtunately it start storming and rains cats ans dogs.That make the traffice worse .Nothing we can do as there is no other way to go there beside taxi.Just want to go there as soon as i can in case the visiting hour in the hospital is ended .
Arrived there after an hour.The store there all closed .Decided to get some fruits and flower there cause we are hurry to there .Suppose to be buy all those stuff from sukuvit road next time will be much better .Just get some cracker ,green tea (her favourite ),some towel and shampoo as i think she didn't bring all those stuff to the hospital when check-in.She look better than I expected .She is more refreshed maybe becasue she have been there is few days already.What her meal is a bottle of glucose solution to her veins.I have been suffer from this too when i get pneumonia when i was 6.I know how it feel .Stay for 20 mins there since i don't want mint to get bored outside plus i don't want to interupt she and her guy that long .
Mint take me to dinner at Beach Bar at Pra-artit Rd.Not a big place but the atmosphere is great as the light is dim and easy for people to talk.Also it has some music that mint can sing all.Kind of busy while the dinner cause Praew and joyce called to confirm the meeting tomorrow.A big bowl of rice we ordered and we can finished that all becasue the food is delicious and we are really hungry.
Back to hotel to rest a little bit and Nid call to ask if i wanna join them to the new bar .It's always cool to clubbing to havea little drink and listen music .Take the train to Ekkamai and then take taxi to there .It's called the Broonze bar.A big palce and Pooky go there with her korean friend.He is into golf business.Get into the bar and order a bottle of Vooka and some soft drink to go with that .Lots of up to beat dance songs playing and the most important one is the live band playing .I addicted to the music they playing .See nid are singing out loud and ask her what the song name is .Maybe i will go to buy the CD there on next day.Have a lot of fun .The only things is the music is too loud out there we can harly chat.HAHA.Get back to room late again.A bit exhausted .Have to wake early next moring to visit Paurenna again.Just change the cloth and get to bed !! zzzzzZZZzzzz
