5D4N Bangkok / Pattaya Tour

Well.. what a tiring trip.. but it is a nice trip... Manage to spends some happy quality moment with my daughter and wife... also manage to bond with my wife's nephew..Here is a quick summary on my trip...

Day 1, we took Tiger Airways departing from Changi Budget Terminal and arrive in Bangkok at 8am.. by the time we reach hotel it was around 9am.. too early to check in.. so we decided to go to Chatukchat Weekend Market.. My daughter is very very tired, need to carry her around... After that we head to Platinum Mall for lunch before check-into the hotel at 2pm.. Centre Point (Petchburi 15) Hotel is convenient.. only walking distance to Pratumun Market.. During shopping at the crowded Pratumun Market, i lost sighted of my wife.. and had to lead both kids back to hotel..

Day 2, we followed the tour to Floating Market, Wat Arun Temple, four facced buddha and Tiger Zoo... Then check into Pattaya's Jomtien Garden Hotel.. This hotel located in Jomtien Beach has not much shopping and lest vibrant then Pattaya Beach..

Day 3, went to Coral Island by speed boat.. My daughter was singing all the way from Pattaya Beach to Coral Island.. Coral Island beach was so beautiful and plenty of sea sports.. Water was crystal clear... The souvenir and shopping in Coral Island are much cheaper than in Pattaya.. my wife really regrets buying her bikini in Jomtien Beach... cos its cheaper in Coral Island... After lunch we dip int the hotel pool before heading to Nong Nooch Village.. The cultural show at Nong Nooch Village is spectacular.. and the elephant show is entertaining...

Day 4, head back to Bangkok... reach Dream World theme park at around 2pm because of heavy traffic jams and heavy down pours... The buffet lunch at Dream World is the worst i ever had during my trip.. the food was terrible and no refill... (Really reminds me of army food at the cook house).. Rest of the day we spend taking photos and rides at Dream World.. I never expect Dream World to be so fun... so worth going... After dinner, we check into Grande Centre Point.. a new 5 stars hotel near to the four facced buddha.. When we step into the hotel lobby, everyone goes "wah....." Grande Centre Point's 1 bedroom suite was so confortable... It was equipped with a kitchen with utensils and a washing machine, 2 Plasma Tv, a Sofa, a fax machine, a bath tub, a shower, a iron board and iron, a safe box and a very comfy King size bed...

Day 5, Almost end of our trip.. did some last minute shoping before heading to the airport for our flight back.. Empty all our Thai Baht for dinner.. Flight was delay for 30 mins... and only reach Singapore at 12.30am...
