I haven't wrote anything for the longest time and had no idea why... busy? Not so much! =)
As I am reminiscing about vacations and those wonderful days of which never made it onto here like I wished it did, so I decided to go ahead and post it here to share and to also try to relive it a little bit!
It's been a while but I hope I can still narrate it accordingly ... if not..? ... well it's not like anyone is going to die LOL
Spring break ... only one week out of class so I used it to its full potential by taking both of the weekends that surrounds that week so that gives me 9 days ... but I think I skipped 2 days of classes so it was actually 11 days. I do not however advise doing so because I was jet-lagged the whole week afterwards and going to class with it too! X_X
I started out flying from Chicago to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam then bought the tour to Thailand from there. The tour was for 7 days $350 per person all inclusive (Round trip airfare from VN, 3 or 4 stars hotel, food, travel to and from cities, entertainment, and with a tour guide the whole time!) It was dirt cheap!!! My round trip airfare from Chicago to Vietnam was LOL ... $$$$ but I think it was worth it since I got to see family! =)
Before anything I need to show off my luggage LOL. I packed super light for this trip and was so proud of myself because I tend to ALWAYS overpacked!

| You like? ... I LOVED! =) |
Bangkok
 |
| My fiance (now husband) and I at Roof Top Bar at Baiyoke Sky Hotel. Indoor bar but right above it is a revolving observatory deck! Which obviously gives you a 360 view of Bangkok by standing in one place!!! =) |
 |
| One of the views from the revolving observation deck. One thing that I didn't like about that is it's so hard to take pictures because we were constantly moving! |
 |
| Of course there has to be a snake "show" ... it's not for the faint-hearted. These men does these crazy shows for a living and live off of tips from the shows patrons and it's sad to know that they are putting their life at risk everyday just so they can take care of their family! |
 |
| The Temple of The Golden Buddha. All the temples in Thailand are marvelous!!!! |
 |
| He's made of GOLD!!! |
I build my own temple! =)
And of course the crocodile show! Same as the snake show. One thing we did notice was that the crocodiles that was in the show has the tip of their tails snipped off! Never got a chance to ask why!
 |
| Almost every building/house there had a little altar outside! |
This was the temple inside the Royal Palace. Breathtaking from every little details!
Entrance to the palace! No shorts or bare arms allowed! We definitely prepared, but a few people in our group who wore shorts had to rent sarongs to wrap up before entering! And let me tell ya!!! WEAR COTTON CLOTHING!!! There's only two seasons in Thailand... the Hot and the HOTTER!
So cotton clothing is the most comfortable!
One of the attractions we went to was Safari World. Basically like Disney's Animal Kingdom!
 |
| Ha! Had to post this... this little sprinkler goes off every minute for a few seconds! And yes I made him pose like this LOL. Funny enough to see a handful of people laughed at him yet follow suit. |
