More Exciting for Second Time in Thailand

Going back to Thailand...

Tense with excitement, anticipation and not little apprehension as a landing- gear clunked down and the fasten seat belts sign came on, I looked out the window eagerly. I was so fascinated with the view and the big plane I was on. After 5 hours flight, I saw like a jewels in black velvet, the lights of Abu Dhabi shimmered on the long straight airport road that crossed the dessert. I couldn't see the city because we arrived at the airport with the Etihad Airlines at night to transfer to Thailand. We needed to catch 9:45pm, now...we were panicking because it’s almost 9pm and we couldn't find the gate 30. We had to go through other inspections. It wouldn't be easy for an old woman to catch up the flight. We had to run for boarding. Thank God, we made it... I know very soon on 7 am, we'll be in Thailand.

I enjoyed the flight with Etihad Airbus. It was enormous. I liked their foods and of course the movie box. I watched all the box office movies like Superman, Hunger games and Avengers. I stayed up awake and talking with a new Thai friend Kai and Bryan who was her English Husband.

It's landing time and my first sight in Thailand Airport almost took my breath away. I never had such long time to enjoy Thailand. This time, it would be different. I wish three things and I am hoping that my husband would grant these; first, the elephant ride, floating market and the Muay Thai.

Here are the best experiences I've ever had in Thailand. I met new friends from Singapore namely Lea Jensen and Celia. Here are our video clips on how we enjoy Thailand so much.

Our first stop in the war cemetery

If you don't like to visit the museum, you can visit the bridge which was built by the prisoners of war.

Of course... who can forget my first ride on an elephant. Fantastic!

After the elephant ride, we enjoyed the scenic view by this bamboo rafting.

We are only given 20 minutes to enjoy the falls. hmmm:( How wish we could stay much longer.

Another way to enjoy Thailand is through its Market and River or Canal Cruising.

River cruising along the Bangkok River

After the floating market, we went to see the villages through a boat (another canal cruise).

Memories in Austria from June 7 to June 16

Day 1 in Vienna – June 7, 2012 Leaving Budapest makes me sad, but going to Vienna makes me so excited. Another cultural experience has been waiting for us. So, the day before we left the country, we made sure that we have the necessary foods for the trip and cash because we need to buy train ticket. We woke up early and started walking at 5am heading to the Train Station, Budapest- Keleti. We supposed to leave at 6:05 am; however, there was something wrong with the rail jet, so we were transferred to another train that left at 7:10. We reached in Wein Meilding station in Austria at 9: 58am. Of course, travelling is not really all fun. I felt so tired specially, you can’t sleep well and you have to wake up so early. This train or Railjet 60 is much faster than the train we had from Bekes while the train from Debeljaca to Becej is the slowest of all. This is really second to Bullet Train. They have comfortable seats and ventilations. They give us program to inform us about ...

Mosque in Istanbul, Turkey

Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque are the most beautiful mosque I've ever seen in my life. Looking at this makes me feel better after having a feeling of nausea of the 10-hour-trip. I felt relieved when we arrived safely in Istanbul, Turkey. I've realized that this gonna be the biggest trip ever. Ending the last leg of the Euro trip with a bang!!! Hagia Sophia Blue Mosque

Copenhagen: The Model of Happiness and Unity

June 26-27, 2012 Horrifying Check-up from Customs Reaching Copenhagen is not easy journey as what we usually had. We were in the middle of the road like for 10 hours. With in those hours, we were checked by the two group of customs from Germany and Denmark. It was horrifying the fact that they have to check our passport one by one. Both of these customs had different goals in mind. Like the Germans, they have to check for illegal immigrants. One of us was found that there was something wrong with his passport. He was asked to get off and not to continue the trip. Not only that, after we crossed the sea for 45 minutes in a Roll on Roll off ship, we were being checked by the Danish customs. It was quite horrifying because they were checking if your passport was real or not. Aside from that, since this Eurolines bus was from Amsterdam, they were also checking for stash or drugs. Guess what! Four of them were asked to get off for full body scan ...
