Thailand Day 1.

22O111.
we had a very early start.
everyone were rushing around,
doing last minute packing and getting ready.
took the cab to airport around 6-7am.
checked in.
dad & sister went to cathay pacific lounge.
mum & i went to grab bubble tea.
Photobucket
malted milk tea with pearls.
didn't watch anything on the plane nor ate any meals except stealing mum's yogurt,
because i was sick:(
arrived in bangkok around 11am thailand time.
the immigration was a pain.
Photobucket
there were massive queues and it moves like a snail.
the airport was nothing compare to hongkong's.
Photobucket
it's in bad condition eventhough it's newish.
floors are cracked, toilets are disgusting.
people say it's because of corruption:s
Photobucket
Photobucket
Photobucket
ignore the state im in.
i blame the sickness!
walked around deciding which company to take a car from.
mum & sister wanted to take the train
and i walked to take another plane.
dad insist on a car,
not taxi, a car- -
Photobucket
then off we go to hua in!
3 hours drive.
at first we were all talking and the driver kept frowning,
so dad kept saying it's because we are too loud- -
i was all excited taking photos.
Photobucket
then all the sudden it was like terrible traffic jam.
Photobucket
later found out because the boxes and boxes of oranges from that truck all fell out to the road.
Photobucket
took a nap after.
stopped about 1 hr after to grab something to eat.
Photobucket
Photobucket
the toilet was gross-ish.
no flush, you have to use this tiny bucket to get water to flush it,
also the sinks are outside,
which i later found out toilets are like that everywhere in thailand well hua hin at least,
unless it's some fancy place or hotel.
Photobucket
there are little stalls, selling different kinds of food.
Photobucket
Photobucket
Photobucket
bought some fruits from this stall.
Photobucket
Photobucket
Photobucket
bought this roll with stuffings.
it was simply gross.
Photobucket
and this sweet snack.
tasted quite good:)
Photobucket
Photobucket
Photobucket
Photobucket
then sister suggested to get grilled squid.
Photobucket
we had a choice between spicy or sweet and sour sauce.
sister wanted both,
but we thought it might taste weird so went for the spicy one.
Photobucket
then sister took the first piece and died from spicyness.
there were hundreds and thousands of chilli seeds.
we went back to add some sweet & sour hoping it'ld make it better.
after that, got back to the car and continued our journey.
fell asleep for most of the ride.
hua hin was rather pretty.
probably because there's lot of previous king's summer palace being in that area,
also the current king as well.
Photobucket
then arrived at our hotel - Sheraton Hua Hin Resort & spa.
Photobucket
Photobucket
Photobucket
Photobucket
lobby.
Photobucket
welcome drink when we waited for our check in.
then we made our way to our room which was quite a long walk which we found out later that it's because a indian wedding was being held here for 5 days long so most of the rooms were booked.
Photobucket
Photobucket
Photobucket
we had 2 rooms. one for parents the other for me & sister.
but theres a door in between that can be opened to be connected.
our room was garden view, so the back of the room is not connected to the pool:(
stupid wedding people took all the good rooms:(
