Pattaya - Bangkok Day 4

The day started with yet another lousy buffet breakfast at the hotel. There was nothing to choose from as the fried rice tasted plain, the bread were kinda stale, the cereal choice were only koko krunch and cornflakes. I only fed on the bull eye egg and pineapple. The only edible things. Hehe. The pineapple were super sweet, just the way I like it.

We left Pattaya and headed back to Bangkok. On the way we stopped at the elephant farm where tourists can ride on an elephant for 200 Baht per person. I skipped that.




Local fruits of all variety


Two people per elephant

The next stop is a snake research center where they uses parts of the snake and made into medicine for different purposes. According to them, there are only two research centers in the world, one in Thailand another at Brazil.


The staff did some stunts. He put the snake's head into his mouth. Eww.. But no fear, the snake's teeth were removed so it won't bite.

Safari World and Marine Park was the next destination. We were brought around for a tour in our bus and the animals are free to move around. There were deers, oxen, birds, tigers, lions, lyger (mix breed of lion and tiger), peacocks and many more.

Then we headed for buffet lunch, which has nothing worth mentioning. By the time we finished lunch we missed the dolphin show. Having no choice we opted for the spy war show, a James Bond-like show where the hero was on a mission against the villain.

We took another 1 and half hour ride before reaching Bangkok. Since it was too early for dinner, we went for a little shopping at MBK, the shopping paradise. The 1 and half hour shopping session was definitely not enough to satisfied our urges. We need more!! But its good as I am in tight budget now. >.<

My bag! This made me a happy girl. ^^


Cashew nut. Another one of my favourite. It's so hard to get it here compares to Hatyai where everyone is selling them.

After dinner, we headed back to our hotel, the same one we accommodated on the first night, Montien Hotel.
