Gd morn!
just bk fr BKK yest..weather @BKK is sunny thru'out our trip. BTW its my 1st time taking SAS Airways (Scandinavian) to BKK. The plane itself & amenities are v.new, seats are more spacious than SQ. Act. all seats in plane hv touch screen tv BUT only the '1st class' & 'economy plus' are issued w/ headphone while the 'economy class' (which is lower than econ. plus) dun hv. For us, did not really matter. As for meal, its a sandwitch..with snack pack (Mars choc./small cup mineral water etc) beside the free flow of juice,soft drinks,coffee etc. When we asked for wine, they gave the whole small btl to each of us...ehehe so we shared 1 btl while the rest took em off plane. Overall i will still take SAS again.
Abt Eastin Hotel which we stayed turned out so much nicer than we expected. The hotel itself is new, deco is grand. Staffs svc can be comparable to a 4star hotel one *winkz* Food and room also not bad..all these make the hotel stand out. Lotsa guests during tos days, noticed more european prefer to stay there. Its definitely better than D'MA & Twin Tower which i stayed last time.
There's a new 7-11 opp. Eastin, Thongchai seafood restaurant had closed down liao, such a pity as their food were delicious & cheap. As for Joy Collection tailor which we mentioned opp. Eastin Hotel earlier, the addy is :

Hee..as usual for us, go BKK must do shopping and visit Erawan Shrine!! we got most of our buys eg. shoes/kids'wear/clothing/bags blah blah at Chatuchak..followed by Siam Sq & MBK (esp spa products @Boots), accesories fr.Sampeng (within Chinatown) & of cos Suan Lum too. Oh btw we did not go bloomingspa cos due to its location, hard to fit into out itinery ;P
Due to bird flu, we did not go to the pets section @Chatuchak. Guess as a foreigner, we just gota be abit more careful cos i tink to the ppl of thai...life is just norm.
