3D2N Bangkok Escapade 01

Yoohoo! the post that u guys are waiting for is here! my very first travelogue for the year of 2012~!

We went for our company retreat to bangkok this time round (last year was hong kong) and i was really excited about it! it’s been more than 2 years since i last went bkk and i seriously have no idea why it took me 2 years later to head back there again! it’s like a shopping, massaging heaven for all! u can read about my 1st trip to bangkok over here (*ps: that’s where i first got really drunk! lolx)

We met up early at the airport for check-in as we are taking a morning flight over with Thai Airways ;) the last time i took was like freaking long, during my sec school days when we went Chiangmai for our field trip…

Now, you dun really have to take a cab from the airport to the city. With the super convenient express train, you can reach city within 17mins! One way ticket will cost you 90 baht and for 2 way return ticket, it’s only 150 baht!
