Hi Friends
It has been almost a month since I came back from my Bangkok shopping spree. I was really too lazy to post up the pics. Thank God I am feeling a little hardworking today to show you some pictures.
Warning: This post is picture heavy!
Due to the rain and flood, many warn me against the trip but I prayed for a dry weather and true enough during the 4 days there was no rain at all except one evening (just a little drizzle). I thank God for His goodness to provide clear sky during my trip. When I came back, I heard from my friend in Thailand that Chatuchak market was flooded on the next day.

Look at the polish - bottle shape is like OPI but not OPI - don't be fooled! |

Platinum Mall - a place not to be missed! I will come back again to this fashion paradise! |
The shops there are well prepared to face the flood. This is outside iStudio
Some pictures of Chao Phraya river:

Water level at Chao Phraya river - almost hitting the land |

Chao Phraya river - taken from the train |
Some pics taken at Chatuchak market - this is the largest open air market in the world (I think). On the following day after I left, this market was flooded.
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjALyeXkWOYq_lhyZcW25lJIsqj3lsqkaVA0MpTFcYdvXbqUjw_HedFeZ96hLiYT2wo64DlKk2Yf56Q7iDn00H-KEqGE0RxYtkj-AcjOmgRBg9xZ9uUFrbme229oaOGbA-_o1rZwcKQLyY/s400/P1110472+hair+color.jpg) |
These funky colors are for the hair - look at the girl who is selling (bottom pic) - she did her hair so nicely with the colors |

Fresh orange juice is everywhere in Bangkok and the fruits are really cheap! |

Paad Thai - like fried koay teow but eat with sugar, peanut and chilli powder |
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKNKo7mf8KbzndMzkUrUXy4vN1dhoLfcyak_5RJORVu4W2NBjvzXWTcdjhGG1U6wudJte1gzV7sgV5qN0JxxPi4h3dJe_ywk6twLwc8inAKb1ZP2sBVFeo7Vpg91PPmtO0HrCRoadL3WU/s400/P1110478+ice.jpg) |
The famous coconut ice cream - not very creamy though. I ate another ice cream but did not take the pic. |

Glutinous rice seems to be the local Thai favourite. I tried this and like it. |
Finally....ta..da..my haul
