September Holidays

September holidays may be short but for last and this year, we manage to go on 2 trips without the children. Last year we went to San Francisco for 9 days and this year, we went to Bangkok for 4 days 3 nights. It's like a couple retreat for us, with no children, friends or families. I think sometimes we're just so consumed by the children that we may neglect each other. Hence short retreat like this is really good for the both of us. I hope that we can make this into a yearly event :)



Cathay flight to BKK / First meal in MBK-BKK : Tom Yam soup with Pineapple rice, Phat Thai, sweet & sour fish, and fried spring roll

Pathuwan Princess Hotel. It was luxurious and convenient

Breakfast in Pathuwan Princess Hotel before taking the skyrail to Chatuchak Weekend Market / Rail ticket : 39 Baht = S$1.50


Many many many stalls in Chatuchak Weekend Market, we spent the whole day there!

Time for lunch. We settled it in Chatuchak Market. Fried rice and Phat Thai.

We eat donuts everyday! In total, I ate 7 donuts in 4 days. We love this Meiji Yoghurt drink!
We also went to Platinum Fashion Mall and Prathunam Market. We did Thai massage and had pedicure. It was a tiring trip but we did find time to pamper ourselves.

Some of the stuff we bought : Snowman Christmas lights and coin purses for Children's Day presents for my school kids and Phoebe and Reuben's Birthday goodie bags

After so much shopping, time to go home... tired feet.
