Bangkok/Kanchanaburi/River Kwai/Ayutthaya Day 4, 5 and 6



25 Nov 2007. The highlight of the day was the visit to the Royal Summer Palace Mongkol Borpot at Bang Pa-in. In fact, we were told that the Queen just visited the palace the previous evening. It's a fascinating Palace with eastern and western style buildings and well maintained gardens.





After the Palace tour visit, we travelled back to Bangkok for lunch. We were brought to 2 places next. The first was where they were promoting Thai gem stones and the other, Thai honey. On our journey back to our hotel, the guide brought us to the ever popular 4 Face Buddha site. In between, we managed to sneak into a McDonald's outlet to grab.... Pork Burgers!



26 Nov 2007 and 27 Nov 2007. The 5th and 6th Day were free and easy. Needless to say, it's Shopping, Shopping, Shopping! We shopped at Siam Paragon, Central World Plaza, MBT, Suan Lam Night Bazaar and many others. Finally on 27 Nov 2007,we boarded our plane at 7.45pm and arrived at Changi Airport at 11.20 pm.
