Happy Songkran festival

It has been a while since i blogged last. Well nothing much happening in my life.

On Saturday Apirl 8 Note, Tom, and I went to "Baan Mor" is it Thailand electronic heaven. Like Akihabara in Tokyo. I need to buy new battery and charger for my new hand-held Motorola P200 VHF radio.

After that Note want to buy gift for his dad's birthday so we decide to come to Siam Paragon. But wanna check out the lomo camera at the Siam discovery Department store.




This is the picture of street vendors which they are not supposed to sell on the pedestrian bridge but seems they are doing quite good business there.

After I have check out Room Interia designs at Siam Discovery. I found many interesting cameras. like Pin Hole camara. They look really cool in a wooden box. The price is little over my budget. It is a good collectable items. Retro of the 1900s.

Then we moved to Siam Paragon. Walking and looking around. Coincidently I met old friend, Tee. We had little chit chat and exchange telephone no.

Ater we finish shopping. we came out to grab a taxi to note's house. We are not sure if the taxi stand do have a queue or not. but we decide to stand in the queue.

We have this "Queue manager". A security guard who manage all the queue and he had a loud speaker with him. It is purposly for him to shout to those taxi who do not wanna pick up thai passenger. "Thai people also have money. Not just the foriegner !!" "Hey you MR. do you know Queue ?? (shout to the foriegner who try to grap the taxi at the end of the line) Yes you !!

He even Jumped in front of the taxi who was recieved foriegners who pushed the queue "Hey you get out ... get out .. u know Queue ???"

Man love him so much ..

Sunday 9th I have to go back to Baan mor again as my radio charger didnt have a fuse in it. try to get the exchange for new one. After all the rain and every thing... man the shop is closed..


Monday 10th went back to Baan Mor again as I need to get the fuse as soon as possible.

This is the sciene at Baan Mor. Monk went and looking for Movie CD. 3 for 100 Baht .... Street vendor shouts .. he should not be a monk if he still wanna see the movie like this !!!! At least it's against the thai monk rule.
