I slept well last night sampai pagi pun terlajak. Luckily, Zaffri is ready, so at 7.30 dia dah turun tunggu driver tu. The driver was early. At 7.30, dia dah tunggu kat lobby bawak card tulis nama Pn Budhi. Padahal, kitorang kat atas lagi, tengah bersiap. 7.45 baru nak turun breakfast. ngok ngek sana sini, around 8.15 baru kitorang gerak. TAPI, TU LA.. WHEN IT COMES TO COMMUNICATION, out terus. susah betul. most thais x pandai cakap english, the same thing with this young driver, jenuh nak explain. memula, ingat ok je, but then, receptionist hotel tu panggil aku n bagitau yg driver ni x tau kitorang nak gi mana. so, aku pun cakaplah kata nak gi grand palace, wat arun etc. Jadi kerja pulak receptionist tu nak kena jadik translator pulak. then, driver tu angguk2, tapi lepas tu boss dia call n boss dia nak cakap ngan aku. To clarify things, I guess. N, ke asked me about our plan, I explained but then he suggested that we go to the floating market first, then only we go to the rose garden, grand place and wat arun. So, we just follow him. He knows best.. Then, off we go. the journey was kind of long sebab aku pun siap tertidur2 gak la. Sedar2 je, dah nak sampai. Dari situ kitorang kena naik bot aka sampan untuk sampai ke floating market tu. At first, I thought sampai2 je terus nampak floating market n that is the option if we want to hop on the sampan atau tidak... tapi rupa2nya kena naik sampan baru sampai sana. Tapi x kisah la, dah alang2 sampai... pergi je la terus.
Bila dah naik sampan, baru realized.. yeah.. this is really a venice of the east

It is unique and humble in its own way. Sebelum sampai kat floating market tu, kitorang lalu kawasan kampung yang betul2 tepi terusan ni. For sure this is not a river, it might be canal I guess.
