Chapter 8: Bangkok Birthday Trip II

Holla~ I'm back! 

Finally, finished my last module examination last Thursday! Am looking very forward to the release of my results! Last step to the next step. Shall talk more about it when i know my result... which will be only be released 1 month later -.- boo~ 

Anyway, as mentioned in my previous post, after the staycation in Sentosa, baby and I went for a short impromptu getaway to Bangkok! Definitely a very last minute trip as we booked and confirm the flight and hotel only on Thursday. The same week that we departed on (a Saturday).

Baby thought that the best short getaway is Bangkok and forgotten about the protest.. LOL

But still, it was a fulfilling trip! =)


Off we go! Bye Singapore~


3 days 2 night trip, we stayed in Bangkok Marriott Hotel, Sukhumvit.

Hi-tech lift system. Touch screen mode, and only goes to your level from your card access.


The room is like an executive business room. 
Super comfortable to be in. Especially the spacious bathtub, comes with a city view on your side.



The first night we just roam around Terminal 21 etc. and had a powerful 2 hours of massage at Thong Lor!
We started shopping only on the 2nd day, first stop to JJ market (chatuchak)!




Weather was soooooooooooo HOT! It was a sunny season the past month. 
Totally felt like my face is melting....




still, there were many people around. crowded, hot, sweating, sticky, arghs.....


More fulfilling buys in chatuchak were Junior's items! Super steal! =D
Then was Platinum mall for another round of shopping.

After shopping for 8 hours......
baby brought me to visit the protest area!


we even went down to join the crowded....

still wear red.... lol!!!! 

sat on the tuk-tuk to have authentic thai food for dinner!

A gem that was recommended by baby. The food tastes awesomely delicious! 
150% mouth watering! I ate this for dinner for 2 continuous days!

plus it's mad cheap! 3 dishes 1 soup and 2 rice, only $13 for 2?!




the best of the best, tom yum soup!
Am drooling just by looking at these images..... 

Had visited Bangkok countless of times ever since young... usually with family and 
it's always travelling around by car or taxi. 

This trip was the first time that i actually took Bangkok's BTS!

Was really amazed or "sua ku" to be exact... didn't know it was still so old school!

Singapore's "old times" ticket machine! 

MRT used to be so amazing with this type of service mode can. LOL


baby see how suaku i reacted and asked me to pose a nice photo with the ticket #okcan

so i entertain him too! hahahahaha

During the night we went up to Marriott's Rooftop Bar,
48th storey high...

the humidity in the air made my body so sticky and uncomfortable -.-


But it's a beautiful place, and great place to chill at... 
there's even an in-house DJ playing R&B music too


With a gorgeous city view of Bangkok.


3rd day and continue shopping before transferring to the airport.

Bye the land of smiles! 

Brought back 3 luggage!
1 of which is for clothes, another 2 is for shopping loots!


The loots,


80% for the kids + Junior while 20% is for myself!
I have this weird habit of not getting too much of my own things overseas... 
but i spent a lot on clothes in Singapore. blah....

My favourite buy!!! 
Junior's home sweet home! Got it for 20 SGD ONLY!

pets owners really must visit JJ market for your furkids' items!


Thanks baby for all that you have done for my "birthday"! 
"You make me feel like the happiest girl on earth. Xoxo"

Chapter 7: Sentosa Birthday Celebration

28th February didn't end after the kids' birthday celebration in School.

My sweetest baby booked a staycation surprise for me in Sentosa...
off we went for check-in! 




As expected, although it was supposed to be a "surprise" and he kept trying to stir me around...
I already knew that it was Amara Sanctuary Resort that we were heading to.

Wahaha i'm such a surprise spoiler..

anyway, i'm gonna say it's one of the best suite i've been to!

He actually booked the Larkhill Terrace Suite!
Rating: 9.5/10 

Shall let the photos to do the talkings,



The room



The bed is HUGE and very comfortable... hahaha

The room is attached to another door that leads to,



A bathtub and awesome sun-bed!

*notice the door there*


twin basin and the overall view,

The door that I ** about leads to a beauty infinity pool!


Just less than 5 steps away from the room! How cool is that?!


Panoramic view of the beautiful pool,


The infinity pool is really a big plus! 
the suite reminds me of a mini Montigo though.. save my time travelling LOL

Mom and dad brought the kids over to join us in and the afternoon.
and of course, all of them couldn't resist the pool, 



In the baby pool



In the evening, settled down in Putien restaurant to have our birthday dinner~


The red wine chicken is so mouth-watering!

another small part of surprise came, with my favourite pine garden Lychee Martini!
people who knows me, knows i'm a fussy eater... especially to cakes =x


Not forgetting, it's my girls' birthday too!!! 
it's definitely happier to share the cake with them,


Bless to share almost the same birthday as my daughters! =)

Let's sing to each other birthday songs.....



Cake-cutting session,


Charlene gives the "Huat ahhhhh~" expression! LOL



Indescribable happiness =)

Thankful for everything!!!

After dinner, dad and mom left with the kids.
so baby and I went back to the suite to rest.

Watched tv and was felling asleep...
suddenly, someone outside rang the doorbell and there were many noises!!!

was somehow startled awake and i began wondering, who could that be?!?!
Turn to look at the cunning looking man beside me 
and he told me to just open the door....

oh my godddddd.... it was MY LOVELY GIRLFRIENDS with their spouses and kids!!

I thought I only see such surprises on youtube or dramas LOL
Super touched and speechless. I totally have zero expectation that anyone will come all the 
way in to Sentosa in the night to surprise me...

Felt really loved, blessed and thankful to have this lovelies with me! 


all of them wear so nice and pretty while i'm still in my sleepwear oops haha!


Love you all forever and always~


Not gonna be mushy here because I know you know what i'm thinking =)

Thank you for all the efforts you've done!
I love you! <3

The next day, baby and I headed for our impromptu trip to Bangkok! 

shall continue in the next post~ ciaoz!
