Day 13/14 Good bye Samui and Welcome to BKK

Day 13

Good morning. Today our beach party was over, It's time to said good bye to Samui. We stayed here for 4 Days and 3 nights which was quick for us that's mean we were happy !!!  We headed off on the ferry & the scenery of South Thailand sea was fantastic and we agreed to sit behind  the area of our ferry. Some walked up stairs to see view and took some pictures. Some tried Thai spicy noodle cup which could buy from small mini mart on ferry. Some just sat and listened some songs from their ipod. We arrived on main land in the beautiful evening. We got a great time in Samui. Then when our ferry was stop, we had to got on us quite fast to make sure we got our seat.
 We got on our bus again to Train station. We got a long time till our train leaving, so we walked to local market where close to our restaurant and there was walking street market on every Friday evening. We couldn't wait for that. It was great to see Thai local people things in Thai local market to compared with Malaysian local market. One of my group said we need a week to tried all of this yummy food and all of us did agree with that too. Also just walking  the streets was very interesting in that the local people changed street for all vehicles became many shops for shopping. We loved to see Thai students who were singing and dancing on stage near by walking street. We had dinner at local restaurant near by train station. We ordered Thai food which were our group favorite. After we were so full of food we carried all our big bags to stand by for our train on the platform. We sat and talked till train arrived. When we got on train, we saw that most of Thai passengers were sleeping and that's mean we shouldn't make loud noise. Some of us walked to restaurant cabin which open till 10 pm and got nice music. After that walked back to our bed and sleep!









Day 14:

Good morning! We woke up to a big voice from local seller who brings Phat Thai, Thai snacks, drinks and local gifts on train in the early morning, They walked from the first cabin till last cabin and for us it was our wake up call! . From our windows could see beautiful sightseeing along the way and it was present real Thai life style. Some tried to take pictures of Thai farmer which was so difficult when trian was moving! We loved to feel differences from rural to big city. We arrived on Sam Sean train station where was small train station and it was closer to our hotel. We took BKK taxis to our hotel and our hotel was only 3 minutes from Khao San Rd by walking. After we checked in and took a shower, we got on Long tail boat and discovered Bangkok canals. Thai people in the past used long tail boat and canals as travelling because we had no car and no road. My group enjoys sightseeing along canals tour. We saw many beautiful houses and also some Thai old people still fishing in the traditional way. We stopped at interesting temple in the middle of the canal to gave bread to cat fish. There were a thousand of fish near this temple because Thai prople couldn't fishing and killed all animals around temple area and that's why many dogs and cats loved to stay with lovely Thai monks. Then we continued our journey to see beautiful temple where got Big Reclining Buddha and was the original Thai massage place. My group were impressed with the beautiful of Reclining Buddha. After that we saw Chedi of 4 Kings. which is made from bricks and were decorated by Chinese bowl ware in green yellow blue and orange colors. Most of all we got amazing day in Bangkok!
