But the temperature in Phuket is not high, the sea breeze is gentle, and the road is not too scorching. But this does not mean that the ultraviolet rays are not strong, so you still need to wear sunscreen when going out. Jiangxileng is much more popular than CentralFestival because it is in Patong. I plan to buy skin care and cosmetics in the mall near Chiang Mai Airport later. I have reserved a day for shopping, so I will go to Jiangxileng this time.
I only planned to buy the bubble bag that I have liked for a long time. I bought the other items because I liked them. There were no other must-buy items. During the days when Yunluo and An Chuyu went there, Melissa had a huge discount, 30% off for everything! I bought a pair of Saturn collaboration shoes, 1356b! Equivalent to RMB 255! It was so cheap! In fact, I wanted to buy more, but there was only one shoe in size 6 in the store.
So there is no choice. This is really the most cost-effective Melissa I have ever seen. Please ignore the bubble bag Yunluo used for tanning. It is called inflatdecor. There are two places to buy it, one is a specialty store and the other is a counter at the corner. The price and style are actually the same. Yunluo and An Chuyu bought a dumpling-shaped pink macaron bag for 830b.
I have always wanted to buy this bag as a gift for a girl who is good at making macarons. When I saw this bag, I thought of her macarons. Bubble bags seem to be sold only in Jiangxi Leng in Phuket, and I have never seen them in Chiang Mai. And this bag is deflated when you get it, so you don't have to worry about it being too big and taking up space.
About tax refund: 1. Yunluo and Anchuyu can only get tax refund when they shop at Robinson during their trip to Thailand. In other words, Jiangxileng or Central Festival, or Central Airport Plaza in Chiang Mai, these are just big shopping malls, and only when you buy at Robinson in the mall can you get tax refund if you spend more than 2000b.
For example, if you buy the same Lee products at the Lee counter in the mall, you cannot enjoy the tax refund; you can only enjoy the tax refund if you buy them at the Lee counter in Robinson mall. First, buy all the things you want to buy at Robinson on the same day at one time, and then go to the tax refund counter of Robinson with the passport of the card user to apply for the tax refund.
Generally speaking, you can only choose to get a refund in Thai baht at the airport. 2. The refund form should be stamped at the airport counter before boarding the flight back to China. At this time, please do not check in the purchased items first, as the staff will check some of the purchased items. 3. After going through customs, with the stamped tax refund form, the staff will refund you in Thai baht.
The refunded Thai baht can be used for airport cafes, duty-free goods and in-flight meals. If you are thirsty, have a cup of DQ to quench your thirst; if you are tired, have a foot massage to relieve fatigue. The afternoon passed quickly. The price of Jiangxi Leng’s massage is definitely much higher than Chiang Mai, but if you are tired, you still have to reward your feet.
It is also fun to experience different massage techniques. For example, Yunluo and Anchu met Mr. Fat and fell in love with a massage parlor called Zhuzhu Massage. Because they booked a ladyboy show at 7:45pm, they had dinner early. Shabushi should be familiar to everyone. It is a Japanese hot pot buffet chain in Thailand.
355b/person, limited to 75 minutes. The dishes include various sushi, salad, tempura, and conveyor belt hot pot ingredients. Let's not talk about the taste. This model is quite interesting, especially for those who are in a hurry, because you can eat as soon as you sit down, without waiting. The self-service small hot pot is clean and hygienic. His salad is very suitable for Yunluoyi, and the amount of the small bowl is just right.
Although the prices here are low, the ingredients are fresh and the meatballs are very chewy. Shabushi Hotpot Jiangxi Lengdian Shabushi Hotpot Jiangxi Lengdian After eating shabushi. It is estimated that there is still 1 hour before the ladyboy show starts. It takes about 20 minutes from Patong to Simon Ladyboy Show (considering one-way traffic). So I went to the most lively Patong Beach first.
The setting sun shines obliquely. The once bustling beach is now covered with a thin layer of cinnabar, and people and motorcycles are still flowing. The wheat-colored hair that has just landed has water drops dripping from the ends of its hair, falling into the orange setting sun; the dogs on the beach are chasing and playing unscrupulously on the beach; the children are still sleeping soundly in the cradle, with golden light shining on their eyelashes.
Simon Cabaret is on the main road from Karon Beach to Patong Beach. If you drive a motorcycle, you will definitely find a rose-red building on the side of the road, which is the theater of Simon Cabaret. I bought the VIP ticket in advance on Taobao, 55y/person. Just print the confirmation slip in the seller's email and exchange the ticket at the theater.
The ladyboy show here is actually a good place to bring children. Because it is a song and dance show that imitates the styles of various countries. Yunluo was quite focused in the first half, but fell asleep in the second half. The highlight of the whole process was discussing with Mr. Fat which ladyboy brother was good-looking, but after seeing the hot bodies of all the ladyboy brothers.
I'm really embarrassed to think of my washboard figure as a woman. Phuket Simon Ladyboy Show Phuket Simon Ladyboy Show Phuket Simon Ladyboy Show Phuket Simon Ladyboy Show Phuket Simon Ladyboy Show Phuket Simon Ladyboy Show Phuket Simon Ladyboy Show Phuket Simon Ladyboy Show Phuket Simon Ladyboy Show Phuket Simon Ladyboy Show
At the end of the show, let’s take a photo of Mr. Zhang Pang and his favorite ladyboy brother to end today’s cheese Phuket Simon ladyboy show.
On the last day in Phuket, I couldn't bear to sleep in. I got up early, put on a white veil, and faced the morning light. I couldn't help but want to press the shutter. Outside the window is a spacious balcony with a large ceiling fan. In the morning, the fan creaks and turns. In the starry night, the sofa on the balcony gives you the most lazy embrace.
Every night here, Yunluo and An Chuyu love to lie on the sofa and watch the stars. Every morning here is so beautiful that you can't move your feet. There are flowers and plants and clear pool water in front of you. There are no human voices, only birds singing. Before breakfast, drink a glass of water and swim. I want to go to the swimming pool to say goodbye to this hotel.
The pool of water was filled with the thoughts of Yunluo and Anchuyu. Yunluo and Anchuyu had the most beautiful swimming pool on this trip, no doubt about it. The breakfast at U Sun Suriphuket Hotel in Phuket was still so rich. At this time and in this quantity, it was basically bruch. On the table today was another pot of small plants full of vitality.
U Sun Suriphuket Hotel in Phuket (usunsuriphukethotel) U Sun Suriphuket Hotel in Phuket (usunsuriphukethotel) U Sun Suriphuket Hotel in Phuket (usunsuriphukethotel) After breakfast at 11am, it is still early, so we booked the Lazy Cat airport drop-off service at 4:20pm today.
So I still have plenty of time to go out and have fun. I rented the car at 6pm the day before. Before I left today, I called to arrange to return the car at 3:30pm, which means that after this round of fun, I will return the car at the hotel entrance at 3:30pm, then pack my luggage and check out. I went out to fill up the gas, and then continued the road to Patong yesterday. Today I want to go to Nai Harn, Kata, and Karon beaches.
There are many popular roadside gas stations. You need to put in coins before filling up. Generally, there are three denominations of coins: 20b/50b/100b. Generally speaking, if you go from Nai Harn Beach to Patong like Yunluo and An Chuyu, and then go around somewhere else, you can use up 50b at most in a day. So you don't need to fill up too much gas at once, 50b at a time is enough.
Gas stations are very densely distributed, and you can definitely see one within 5 minutes. If you are out of gas in an emergency, you can also buy bottled oil at a roadside store. The price is slightly higher than that of a gas station, but at least it will be enough for the time being. There are not so many gas stations in Chiang Mai and Pai. There are no small gas stations there, only large gas stations, so try to fill up as much gas as possible when you get there.
Otherwise, there will be no such shop after this village. Nai Harn, Kata, Karon, in terms of scale, Karon>Kata>Nai Harn, in terms of environment and convenience, if you are going to Phuket for the first time, or you are traveling with a family and it is not convenient to ride a motorcycle, then staying near the 3km long coastline of Karon is definitely your first choice.
The waves in Karon are gentle. The sand is fine and the seawater is much cleaner than Patong. The surrounding facilities are also very mature. Because I had a flight to catch in the evening, I didn't plan to go into the water today. I wore a long skirt and went to the beach. When we got there, Yunluo and Mr. Fat became two et on the beach.
Yunluo and An Chuyu were probably the ones with the most cloth on the beach! I really regretted wearing a long skirt, but I still ran into the sea without looking back. It didn't matter if the skirt was completely wet, because sitting on the motorcycle, the sea breeze would dry it in a short time. Before receiving birthday wishes from their bestie, Yunluo and Mr. Fat had forgotten about today.
Even Yunluo himself had completely forgotten about it. But this happened during breakfast. After breakfast, Yunluo and his wife went out and forgot about it again. But until 3:30pm, when they returned the motorcycle and went back to the room, they saw a birthday cake in the room as soon as they entered the room. They couldn't help but exclaim.
Because Yunluo and An Chuyu never thought that the hotel would really send a cake to Yunluo, even though Yunluo and An Chuyu were going to check out in half an hour. In the previous email to the hotel, they asked Yunluo what flavor of birthday cake she wanted, and gave Yunluo 3 flavors to choose from.
But I thought that traveling was the best gift for a birthday, so I didn't reply to this question directly in the email. Yunluo and I always thought that the cake issue was over. But when the birthday cake really appeared in front of Yunluo, I couldn't help but be excited.
Yunluo took a shower and Mr. Fat took a ID photo of the surprise cake. Then the two of them shared the cake. When Yunluo and An Chuyu checked out at the lobby at 4:15pm, the couple who were sent to the airport by Lazy Cat had already been waiting. Maybe the hotel was so beautiful that even the Thai girl who sent them to the airport couldn't help but take photos in the hotel.
I said goodbye to the sweet receptionist at U Hotel, touched my round belly, and set off for Chiang Mai. The most tragic thing about this trip was that on the way to the airport, I suddenly found that the Tiffany bracelet on my hand was lost. And I didn’t even know when I lost it. This short-lived bracelet was just worn a few days before the trip, and it was left in Thailand.
I called the hotel on the taxi, even though I knew the chances of finding it were slim. Of course, there is still no news. I just think it is too attached to Phuket. fd31677:20pm-9:15pm Phuket-Chiang Mai 2 hours of sleep, catching up on some sleep?zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
Before departure, I had contacted the owner of Baaningping Hotel to pick me up at the airport. Yunluo and An Chuyu had just landed and hadn't gotten their luggage yet, but the taxi driver was already waiting outside with Yunluo's name on his hand. Chiang Mai is very small, and taxis are much cheaper than Phuket, 200b from the airport to the hotel. Just pay the taxi driver directly.
The lady boss of Hotel B is very nice. Although I have already mentioned her good points in the previous article, I still can't help but talk about her again. Before departure, I communicated with Yupa, the lady boss of this hotel, the most by email, about ten emails back and forth. Yupa is like Doraemon, who can help Yunluo solve various problems.
In fact, the hotel is not big, there are not many rooms, and the rooms are even a little cramped. But because of such a dedicated proprietress and her staff, this hotel becomes more and more like your own home, more and more humane, and its quiet little garden by the Ping River is more like your own backyard.
Yupa took the initiative to upgrade the king-size bed room at Riverview for Yunluo and An Chuyu, and repeatedly apologized by phone and email for not being able to receive Yunluo and An Chuyu in person. Therefore, she also gave Yunluo and An Chuyu a rich breakfast, which was the most delicious and richest breakfast Yunluo and An Chuyu had during their entire trip.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The river view room has a large terrace. Every night, Yunluo and An Chuyu eat fruits and count stars here. The hotel can book minibuses to Pai and other travel products and services (average price 150b/person, the same price as travel agencies), and has its own scooters and bicycles for rent (scooters 200b/day).
The hotel can rent a car, which is the best. No deposit or passport is required, and it is convenient to borrow and return. So I don't care about the model, I just rent a car if there is one.
Every day in Chiang Mai, Yunluo and An Chuyu would buy a lot of fruits and bring them back to the hotel. Then they would shamelessly ask the hotel’s male butler to borrow a fruit knife, a fruit plate, etc. Although he could hardly understand English, they could communicate without any obstacles by gesturing. After checking in, they put down their luggage and went out to look for food. They didn’t have a proper meal all day.
You can't treat yourself badly. Although the hotel is not in the ancient city, it is close to the night bazaar, so the surrounding area is quite lively. From the big rural Phuket to the small and fresh Chiang Mai, even though it was late, Yunluo and An Chuyu couldn't stop their excitement. They walked and strolled along the way, looking at the backyard of this house and the pond of that house.
Chiang Mai's crisscrossing lanes are full of surprises for you. So when you come here, you don't have to worry about which hotel to choose or which area to stay in. If you don't have much luggage, you can choose a hotel on site after you arrive here, because there are all kinds of hotels, inns and homestays in the streets and alleys, each with its own flavor. Although the interior may not be luxurious, everything from the architecture to the furnishings is carefully crafted.
After walking for a long time, I found a dark street food restaurant where locals gathered to eat. It was easy to order dishes by looking at the dishes. Seafood fried noodles seemed to be indispensable, and of course, beer was a must for every meal! Dinner was served on the roadside in Chiang Mai! The roadside stalls in Thailand are very clean, with a waterproof cloth covering the simple table, and the cloth surface was shiny without a trace of oil stains.
The overall hygiene is very good, you can rest assured. The northern Thai sausages are very good, and the ones sold at roadside stalls are also worth a try; the various meatballs in Chiang Mai are also quite good, very chewy, so I always sit in this place and go to other places to buy skewers. The place where Yunluo and An Chuyu bought skewers was right next to the stall where they ate, and they saw many Chiang Mai people waiting for skewers.
And they bought them in big boxes. Yunluo couldn't help but run to buy some skewers. The owner couldn't handle it alone, and three or four young people were waiting for the owner to peel mangoes for mango sticky rice. When they knew Yunluo wanted skewers, they helped the owner and poured sauce for Yunluo's skewers. They were not shy at all.
It was from this moment that the little beauty in the hearts of Chiang Mai people began to take root in Yunluo and An Chuyu's hearts. Whether it is Chiang Mai or Pai, the folk customs in northern Thailand are much simpler than those in Phuket. They experienced it all the way and purified their souls all the way. This iron bridge across the Ping River is a gathering place for local young people. They pass by this bridge every day when going from the hotel to the ancient city.
Every night, young people buy fried chicken and beer and sit on the ground in groups of three or four, playing music and enjoying the cool breeze of Ping River. Follow me too! It started with breakfast at the hotel (in fact, Yunluo prefers to call Baaningping a B&B). The hotel did not originally provide breakfast, but the owner Yupa gave it to us impromptu.
But breakfast in the past few days seems to have become the starting ceremony of Yunluo and An Chuyu's daily life. The delicious breakfast of B's house gave Yunluo and An Chuyu a good mood for the whole day. The hotel restaurant is located in the courtyard by the Ping River on the first floor. The semi-open restaurant is very exquisite. The cook asked Yunluo and An Chuyu to choose American or Thai breakfast because it was the first day to try it.
So to be on the safe side, we chose an American breakfast and a Thai breakfast. Chiang Mai is indeed a coffee-loving town. Even in a small B&B, its coffee machine is very good. I won’t say much about the American breakfast. The Thai breakfast made Yunluo and An Chuyu’s taste buds jump. I love their soup, which is actually a bowl of chicken soup with rice.
The chicken in northern Thailand is very tender, and paired with the unique spices of Thailand, this bowl of chicken soup with rice has become Yunluo and An Chuyu's most beautiful taste memory of northern Thailand. So much so that every day when they live here, Yunluo and An Chuyu have to have a double Thai breakfast, just to taste this bowl of chicken soup with rice that is so delicious that it goes to the bone.
In addition to rice soup, Thai breakfast also includes fruits, sticky rice, coconut milk sago, taro balls and taro sago, and other Thai snacks. The cook will carefully match the ingredients every day, so as long as you tell her that you want a Thai breakfast, then what is served will definitely be a surprise, because you never know what this year's breakfast will be.
