We woke up early the next day as our call time for the half day city tour is 8AM. We are very much pleased with our hotel's hearty buffet breakfast that camwhoring even while eating is not to be missed.



This is Four Seasons International House's restaurant. It opens as early as 6AM until 10AM I believe for breakfast. They're also open for lunch and dinner.



They have a range of selection to choose from. They have bread, cereals, salad and fruits.

Typical breakfast food like eggs and sausages are present. The hotel is Filipino-owned thus the availability of "pancit" and "tinolang manok" (not in picture).

Hearty breakfast, we love!



The half day city tour is included with our 4D3N package.

First stop: Wat Hua Lum Pong
We did not bother to go inside as there was a ritual going on. We checked the grounds and observed the worshippers doing their rites.





Second Stop: Wat Indarawihan (Temple of the Standing Buddha)

The gigantic golden Buddha called Luang Pho To is standing at the back! It is said to have a height of 32 meters tall and 11 meters wide. The yellowish covering the Buddha is a 24k gold.



It was just 10 in the morning, but the temperature felt like it's already noon time.



Last Stop: The Gem’s Gallery

Photography is not allowed inside the gallery. I really did not take any pictures even the outside view of it.
One of the perks being in the Gem’s gallery is the free drink they give to the customers and a free gas voucher for the taxi and tuk-tuk drivers that brings a guest to the gallery. So when you hire a tuk-tuk and they offer you a city tour, they will take you here.



I know many would ask, why we didn't visit Wat Arun, Wat Po and even Grand Palace. Well, we opted to ditch it in favor of Chocolateville. I am not a fan of temples, but I would sure visit it next time I'm Bangkok.

It was exactly a year ago when we booked flight tickets to 3 countries, all because of Air Asia's Big Sale. It costs us Php 4,950.00 for tickets Kuala Lumpur-Bangkok-Saigon-Kuala Lumpur-Singapore. And another Php 5,000 for tickets Clark-Bangkok, Singapore-Clark. We had to eliminate KL as we have been there and really there's not much to see. 



It's my sister's first trip out of the country. She's excited to have her passport stamped. She also made it through immigration easy. All she has to say is "I'm traveling with my sister". Good job!



We arrived very early at Clark Airport. It just took us 1 1/2 hours to get there from Manila. SCTEX rocks! 

Cebu Pacific was on time. We left Clark around 8:45PM. And after the 4 hour flight ,we finally landed in Suvarnabhumi International Airport. 



And yeah Jeai, it's endless indeed. Let's save up save up save up!!!



Remember this picture. I can still carry my most loved bag, which I bought for my very first out of town trip. It's still alive up to now. Hihi.



Oh yeah, let's shop. Though, we have to get some sleep first. 



Clearing immigration was easy and fast. The immigration officer greeted us with a welcoming smile, which was unusual and unexpected. They usually sport a poker face. Thailand is indeed "the land of smiles".



I booked our Bangkok package tour through my travel partner in Thailand. One of the reason I went to this trip is to try their services first hand. Customer satisfaction is critical to the business I ventured in. So it's better that I already experienced before I offer and sell it to my clients. So far, my Bangkok package if not exceptional, met my expectations.



Our tour coordinator was already outside the airport waiting and showing the paper with our name on it. We were ushered to our hotel service. Travel to our hotel in Pratunam took almost an hour. 



I didn't bother to take a picture of the hotel's exterior as it is under renovation. It should be done by end of June. But I did bother to take a picture of my fresh face, because it's a lot different after the end of the trip. Lols.



3 comfy beds for 3 totally tired travelers. Goodnight Bangkok. See you tmw!
