Pattaya Day 3

Our third day kicked start with excitement where we were brought to Coral Beach with a speed boat with left me 'floating' throughout the rest of the day. I could feel the bath tub rocking back and forth when I was having my shower after back to the hotel.

Before that, we dropped by the man made deck for those who are interested to do some parachuting. Its only 350 Baht per ride. Too bad I felt like puking else I would never have missed this golden opportunity.


See the people lining up behind me waiting for their turn.

Sebsequently we reached the Coral Beach where we were introduced to different packages of banana boat ride, motor boat ride and also an underwater walk all at very reasonable price. We did some shopping at the stores along the beach. They were all practically selling the same goods so do remember to negotiate for a better price. Some can cut up to half.


Cute elephant key chains


Casual dress


An LV wallet for darling. Hee

After a tiring journey back from the sea, we headed to Nong Nooch for a cultural and elephant show. We were shown Thai boxing and some traditional dances. As for the elephants, they can draw, play soccer, basketball, bowling and dance. Kinda cute to see these huge creature moving so agile.

The arch is made from pots arranged together.




Welcome to Nong Nooch, with a twist of parrot paradise

After leaving Nong Nooch, we went to Pattaya Floating Market. This is a make alike floating market, just a few boats by the side. The rest of the shops are on the wooden deck and no one sells from the boat.



Koh-Kae'a big head icon. This is the branch.


Selling at only 45 Baht each canister. The flavours come in coconut cream, coffee, shrimp, chicken, bbq, curry and also wasabi. We got the coconut cream and coffee flavours. Totally yummy!!



Owl-like bags. Cute~

We bought some local snacks which are definitely much more cheaper compare to the price back in Malaysia.


Jackfruit chips. One of my favourite!


Dehydrated mango, pineapple and guava

By the time we were done with our shopping, everyone is tired and hungry. We had our dinner at a Chinese restaurant where we were served with shark fin soup, suckling pork, steamed fish, crabs, chicken, vegetables, fried oysters and bird nest soup as well as fruits as dessert. Too bad I can't take pictures of the dishes as I figured it would be kinda impolite to do so in front of a table of hungry people.
Tonight we had a special activity, for an extra 700 Baht per person, we headed for the infamous 'Ah Gua' show. According to the tourist guide, the shows are always fully booked and we had to pre-book the day before to avoid disappointment. For me this is definitely the best show in the whole trip. The 'Ah Gua' are actually pretty and the backdrop is really well done and creative.

After the show, all the 'Ah Gua' will gather around at the car park for 10 minutes where anyone can take picture with them for 4o Baht per pax. There was one especially pretty and everyone was asking for her. Too bad I failed to snap a picture of hers.



Just a few pictures for 18 and above. Lol. They were all dressed up glamorously.

We were all exhausted by the time we reached the hotel. After cleaning up and some packing, we headed to bed.
