Robot barista called TAO BIN meaning “Flying Turtle” is SOOOOO YUMMY and SO ENJOYABLE to watch when the turtle is preparing your drink. 4:28 She just asked via her phone if the boat driver is available. 7:16 OMG! Look A-Ma-Zing!!

We’ve been watching your vids back in the UK for a few weeks leading up to our trip. Today’s our second day in Bangkok and how you guys don’t seem to be phased by the heat baffles us! We did Wat Pho yesterday and got to Wat Saket before 8am today to try and beat the heat! We’re hoping the islands will be a little less intense Jodd’s Fair night market is cheap and interesting if you haven’t been

I have information for you. Thailand have variety of buffet restaurants. Therefore, there are a lot of cheap buffet restaurants in Thailand. There are both rice and curry buffet, priced at 49 baht, you can eat unlimited rice and Thai curry. The restaurant is at Lumpini Park. and the most popular in Thailand Every province must have this restaurant is BBQ&Hotpot Buffet. It is a restaurant that offers a variety of food for you to eat. And some restaurants have all-you-can-eat seafood. Prices range from 99-399 baht per person. Including drinks and no time limit However, some stores may have a time limit of 1.30-2 hours. It's a popular Thai restaurant by Especially important occasions such as birthdays, graduations, holidays or dating And I was born in Chiang Mai. Chiang Mai in summer It might be very hot for you. But the North has a lot of beauty and chill relaxation mixed in there. Have fun and safe travels.😁😁🙏🙏

A good blog. I like the food court on the top floor of Terminal 21 but I believe that the food court on the sixth floor of MBK has a greater selection to choose from and is a tad cheaper. Another inexpensive fun experience is catching the sky train to Sophan Taksin station and then catching the River Express Boat to a pier near Wat Pho or alternately Phra Arthit if you want to visit the KSR backpacker area. Keep enjoying your travels.
