run away--Hatyai

*Buoyant* Why? Cos...cos...I"M GONNA GO TO HATYAI NEXT DAY. *muahaha* Due to day time I have to attend classes, thus we depart at 6.30p.m. 

There is almost 7 something when we crossed the border. Hence, we stayed one night here in Danok, Thailand. One thing I felt confused is if I Google search for the Danok hotels, usually I saw Sadao appeared more than Danok. I just realized the real name for Danok actually is Sadao. The very first thing is to find hotel. We found the nearest--River Grand Palace. 540 Thai Baht for a standard room. 


The lobby. 


Comfy bed. *argh...* If allowed, can I sleep on this queen-size bed alone? :))


Hilarious. I'm just wondering what is the function of this mirror. Cos it located straight above the bed. It's possible for those who want to enjoy their sex process? LOL.


*chuckling* Must snap with this symbolic icon :))


When u come to Thailand, must eat this pork burger!!! Why? Cos no pork burger in Malaysia. There is no permission for pork food in open market. 


After dinner, must have a walk to burn the calories. *v* We walked to this Paradise Spa. What is massage? I always want to know cos never try this service before.


RM60 for one hour massage, sauna, spa and herbal steam. Not bad though. Quite cheap.


Initially, I thought need to naked my own. LOL Worker there give us clothes to change with. Spa first. Erm...well, not so hot. I thought the spa water maybe taken from mineral water source just like the real natural spa. Me so suck cos can't enjoy the fun in between. After 10 minutes sitting inside sauna room, when I came out, I felt a little faint. Next, went to herbal steam room, just barely a few minutes, I ran to the door. LOL. I'm the ticklish type person. When massage girl massage my legs and butt, I couldn't control myself from laughing. *paiseh* She was so kind and thoughtful cos she just massage my back and neck. The important thing is...she praised: me look so YOUNG and CUTE. *muahaha* As a conclusion, I realized why men always love go for massage. Cos those girls all wearing tight-fitting sports attire.When she bowed down to massage me, I could see boobs shaking. Ohh...boobs! 


I could feel my whole body very pain after massage however I felt release. What kind of this feel is? LOL. Luckily this Tesco is 24-hour operation. My friend told me must have a look in Tesco when u come to Thailand.


To my surprise is this Tesco is quite small if compare with the Malaysia's Tescos yet able to fit in all. In Malaysia, I never see this kind of series in Sunsilk: Dream Soft and Smooth.


As well as this: Perfect Straight. 


Next morning, we bought tickets went to Hatyai, merely 550 Thai Baht per person. It took one hour reach there. In Thailand, u can always see these Toyota Commuters all around the city as they are luxury transportation here.


We went to the cheapest rate hotel : Rado Hotel.


420 baht for this standard room. Quite old huh? The impressive thingy in this room is the phone! Haha. My friend told me next time better choose other hotel rather than this cos she saw a enormous mice run along the stairs. Its body like a kitten size. OMG! 


The moment u stepped outside the hotel, (this call as tuk-tuk) drivers rushed to u and rattled on to take their service. Have to negotiate the price first before u sit inside. Mostly offered u go to these places: temples, river boats, Songkhla cos they can charge higher fees. Luck came to us today. Cos we found one quite nice and willing to cut down the price. The first thing is to acquainted with him, then price problem can be easily due.


600 baht for 3 temples and Ice Dome. 


Do u realize the motorist above? Only motorists need to wear helmets, the passenger behind not need to. *awed*


Old buildings. Are they flats? 


I'm wondering what is these for. Are they sand? My friend told me these things is to use to minimize flood problem.


A common scene here.


Wat Hat Yai Nai temple. This temple can be found in the middle of the town which is also the third largest reclining Buddha in the world. It measures a total of 35m long and 15m high.


One of the view inside. If u want to pray, no matter how many people in one group just charge RM100. It includes one plate of fruit and cloth to wear with when master chanting. However, it too costly for me as my budget limited. 




Next station :)) Awaiting to see its beauty.


While waiting for our turn, we quickly wear this up.



I thought I will see lots of Thailand culture thingy inside rather than Chinese culture. But I still love these! Extremely freezed! I was very regret for not wearing long pants! 




Look! Gigantic ice-made slide. Can play up there. The ice-made stairs torturing my skinny legs cos it too cold :( Before the worker push me, he gave me one piece of cloth to sit on with which used to protect my butt, I think. However, maybe it too slippery, or maybe I was too scared, my cloth fallen in the half way. Oh Gosh! And I used my legs as "brake" to minimize the momentum. My legs hurt. I could feel my legs tingle and twinge. Oh shit! It then left two big dark scars on my smooth legs. Oh, damn it! I shall try Bio Oil later. 



If I was not so freeze, I must walk this bridge. 



*mesmerized* If this bar is the real one, I would drink here everyday.


Impressive tables and chairs.


Later we rode this to Buddha temple.



Common scene in each temple. When u pray, better buy this as a gift to God, I think.


We took cable car to come here. I forgot how much of it. I think is 300 baht per person. Too expensive. Actually tuk-tuk car can take us reach this temple, but the driver didn't told us. Perhaps he thought we never sit cable car before? LOL.






Next, we went to Guan Yin temple.




I felt confused: why those people love to sell cages of birds, 100 baht for one cage. Buy them as to save their life meanwhile to do good deed. When we release birds, those seller will catch them back and sell them again second time, third time, forth time..... Such a rueful circle.


When I saw this eagles, I thought they are used as a model. Each photo 100 bath like that. The truth is they are just a coconut drinks seller's pets. WOW! Awesome! 


This little monkey also. *ridiculous* when I saw it keep on twirling its tail.


Hedgehog! I never see it in real. I thought its stings would hurt me. However it is not as sharp as rose stings. 



Feel touched when I saw their interaction.


This photo frame costs me 120 baht. Cool, right? *v*



After viewing all these temples, he fetches us back to hotel. After have a short rest, we continued our exploration. 

There is a short, temporary market at the other street.


I think this is a combination of flour, sugar and corn. Taste so so. 




Crab dumplings noodles. *slurps*


*gluttonous* after I mixed some chili.
 

Are they jelly? I think so :)



Firecrackers stalls everywhere while banned in Malaysia.


We came here for tiger show. Not the performance of the tigers but is naked ladies! Those performers not pretty though cos ladies in the downstairs' bar all having statuesque face. All I felt is disgusting about their performance, only one I love the most--magic show. 450 baht for one hour per person.  


These crabs and big prawns sell everywhere.


Beside the Mac Donald, there is a food street.


And also bird nest. Can see all these stalls around the city.


Upon my curiosity, I ordered one. It costs me 100 baht. See? They are like jelly! The real one won't have this kind of crystal-like.


This kuey teow soup make me severely slurp. After add in some chili powder, it became spicy kuey teow soup. I love FISH BALLS^^ 



Today is Christmas eve! But I can't feel any Christmas atmosphere here :(

Bought from 7-11. Their taste like yogurt drink. Nice :))


Part of my breakfast.


*yummy*


After breakkie, we took tuk-tuk car went to the biggest market in Hatyai, 20 baht per person.


Wasei! This is a common scene to sell pork here. *yuck*


They don't have any decent stalls if compared with Malaysia's stalls.


My hair was quite messy la. LOL. Waiting for my dress done cos its length too long.




Tuk-tuk


Old bus.


I thought mango glutinous rice not so special. However, when having first bite, I was shocked. It is so so delicious! Combination of glutinous rice, mango, corn flakes, and don't know what should call for that white liquid. Costs me 50 baht. 


Hmm...what should I named this?


3 flavors can be chosen to add-in.


20 baht  for this. Taste not bad.


Wa...Were they able to sell them off today?


I love this the most among street snacks. I love the special sauce that she applied on each strings. Cos this special sauce bring out the taste of these fish balls. The price between 60 to 80 baht. Very cheap yet yummy!


Cos I miss the kuey teow soup very much, so order one.


U can see all these different type of chili on each stall. I love the chili powder most.


Stray dogs here.



We were at the front of Lee Garden. Actually want to count down for Christmas day, but then no one count down. LOL. 


My loots:





Extremely fatigued. Having light-hearted feeling after this trip :))
