Sawasdee, Bangkok

I'll be going on another trip again, this time in Bangkok from January 26 to February 1.

The last time I went to Bangkok was way back 2006 when I attended a seminar for the company. Now, I go back as a traveler, keen on exploring the rich culture that Bangkok has to offer.

After a quick research, I found out that there are a lot of places that I can go to in Thailand but because of the riots that happened a couple of months back, I wanted to stay close to their capital, Bangkok.

During our last trip, we were able to visit the some temples and have a river cruise and mostly shopping due to limited time. Now, I plan to include the floating market, elephant ride/show, Siam Niramit and Ayutthaya.

So far the rough itinerary is:

January 26 (wed) - Arrive in Bangkok - Check-In

January 27 (Thurs) - Lunch Buffet at Baiyoke Sky then City Tour at the different temples then Swan Lum Night Market

January 28 (Fri) - Floating Market

Jan 29 (Sat) - Chatuchak (AM) - City malls in the afternoon

Jan 30 (Sun) - Chatuchak (AM) - City malls in the afternoon

Jan 31 (Mon) - Ayutthaya and Bang-In Place

Feb 1 (Tues) - flight back home

KRIS KRINGLE: Something Big

I never thought it would be hard to find something BIG for Php 100 pesos ($2) I short listed the following for my fashionable friend: ...a big box of tissue (useful) ...a big toblerone (but this is WAY over budget) ...a big trash bin ...a case of big oatmeal cookies (last resort) ...a big mirror ...a big bookmark (which i couldn't find anywhere) ...a BIG beer (unrelated) ...a big organizer it's quite difficult really. But I must search for something else. PRESSURE! On a side note, Jamie treated us to Pizza Hut's Lechon pizza. After eating, I felt like I would pass out at any moment due to high cholesterol but it was quite tasty if you're a fan of Lechon (roasted pig). The pizza did taste a bit like Mang Tomas' lechon sauce. A big slice of Pizza hut's lechon pizza

Around Manila: Exploring the streets of J.P. Rizal in Marikina

It is funny how we know the history and culture of a land we do not live in yet know so little about where we live. Thus, began our mission to explore Manila, one city at a time. DESTINATION: Marikina Starting Time: 11am End Time: 5pm How to get to J.P. Rizal in Marikina - Waze (app) and Google Maps Marikeno (native people in Marikina) are said to be the most disciplined people in the Philippines. If the cleanliness around Marikina were a testament to that, Marikenos would pass with flying colors. The streets I could say were similar to those in Singapore - free from litter and we saw people from households cleaning their own front area even if it were facing a street. SHOE CAPITAL of the Philippines Marikina produces 70% of the shoes in the country. and holds the World's Largest Pair of Shoes, recognized by the Guinness World Records. In Marikina, you can find the Shoe Museum which houses 800 out of the 3000 shoes that were part of the famous shoe collection of the
