2011 September Travel: Bangkok Day 3 – Shopping Day and Swensens

On our last day, all we did was to shop! Bangkok is the place to be for cheap clothes! We can’t decide how to go about our direction inside the market since it’s too big. We ended up going on way and didn’t explore the side streets. We shopped for 2 hours or so in Pratunam Market first because it was right across our guest house.

We need to check out before 12noon because the guest house will charge us additional day if we don’t check out on time. So shopping nearby was a good strategy for us.

After checking out, we were invited to eat for FREE Lunch since the house is celebrating their 13th anniversary. They said that they’re doing this tradition every year. So, hint for all those who want to have free lunch in Four Seasons International House, book during the 3rd week of September. Be there by September 21 to be exact. So moving on the day, we went to Platinum Mall to shop again. This building is like 168 in Binondo. A 5-storey building with 4 Zones! It’s like Megamall with Mega A, B, C and D. Imagine how big?!

By the afternoon, we had our break in Swensens Bangkok that is also in Platinum Mall but you have to go outside the building. Have you tried eating in Swensens? If not, better try the one we have in MOA. It opened last September 15, 2011 if I’m not mistaken.

We both had our own treat of ice cream! A chocolate basket for me and a chewy choco for Reg! The ice cream was just enjoyable!

Also, since Mc Donald’s was nearby, we took a picture with Ronald McDonald doing the “Sawadeeka” position.

The day ended around 6pm because we have to go back to the hotel to pack again. Our pick up time to airport was 7pm and our flight was scheduled 12.40am the next day. That’s pretty much what we did for 3 days in Bangkok. I hope you had fun reading our adventure. We do like to go back for more activities but that will have to wait.
