BACK FROM THAILAND :)
Just came back today morning

We had so much fun and it's great leaving Singapore for the past 4 days without any disturbance as I did not bring my mobile phone along with me and had already completed my holiday assignments ( except for some which I don't really care much about it ) so this trip was a short break during the March holidays and also to better prepare me for the new term! :)

Day 1, 17/3 Tuesday- Woke up at around 3.15am as our flight was 7 in the morning so we needed time to prepare before we set off to budget terminal. Yes this time round we were not going to the changi airport because we had decided to take tiger airways instead. After all the administration and stuff, we had fried rice and muffins for breakfast.

We nearly miss our flight because uncle was still in the washroom whereby there was an announcement and last call for those who are taking tiger airways to proceed to the gateway. At that point of time we were all so freaking nervous that the counter will close and would miss the flight. But thankfully, we managed to make it on time and were the last few people who board the plane. Phew. Oh and the sunrise was so beautiful that I immediately took out my camera to snap pictures:)

When the plane was about to land...

We had a bus instead of van because there were a lot of people. Very excited because this is the first time everyone of us went for a vacation together and we all had an enjoyable time, really. :D

First day was half-day tour whereby we headed to boat tour center. Love the scenery, the sun, the breezy weather and the part whereby we all feed the fish but because other boats are coming and we had to leave, some of them accidentally throw a huge piece of it into the water. And all the fishes are fighting for the bread, lol.

Next, we proceeded to the temple to pray.

We all had fruits after praying and had lunch at the food court! Took random pictures and had a cup of cold cappuccino and chocolate chip cookies in the bus. :)

After lunch, we went to check in our hotel rooms. We did shopped for awhile and soon after, it's dinner time and headed to the nearby seafood restaurant.However, everything was not what we expected and it sucks. I think we were being cheated because the bill was $600 in total which is around 12 000 baht for two tables. Omg, that's like double the cost than Singapore like why is it so expensive? And for my table it's vegetarian and we only order vegetables, egg, soup etc. It's infuriating that their service was not efficient and they took a long time to served a dish. And what more, their receipt was all in Thai! ( and that's why they can cheat our money ) because whatever food they said that it was inside the receipt and they insisted that we did order but we didn't! And when we tried to explain to them, they pretended that they didn't know english whereby at first they served and speak english to us! Therefore, there was a lack of communication.

Few days later we heard from one Singaporean that it's best not to go to the seafood restaurant as there are many other good food around our hotel area and that many tourists had also been cheated. That's why it was so EMPTY inside and only us. -.-

On the way back to hotel..
