#026 - Dannok & Hatyai 2017
Another annual holiday plan with my colleagues - Dannok and Hatyai on the 27th July. This date was supposed to celebrate Agong's birthday then postponed to 9th Sept. But then, we still carry on with our holiday mood. Basically we want to enjoy the food and have fun. Not to mention about shopping.Muahaha.
Firstly we visited the Asian Cultural Village at Dannok, onced we entered Sadao - the border of Bukit Kayu Hitam, Malaysia and Hatyai, Thailand.
Play hide and seek with pandas. It is quite rushing, but is was fun too that we do not have to spend so much time at one place. Drop off, snap photo and get in the van - move to the next destination.
As usual, WEFIE time. We were at the ZEBRA stainless steel kitchenware and cookware... There are few shop dealers at Hatyai.
Sting with bees. Hahaha.
The local tour guide brought us here to earn commission (We just follow because we still have ample of time. But we didn't buy anything from there). This time we enjoyed the sights in van. We hired a van for 10 persons. Each of us paid RM248 (Van, Insurance and hotel).
Really love Thai food. Original taste, sour, sweet and spicy. Do I need to say anymore....
We stayed at Grand Pink Hotel, the new renovated hotel not long ago - about 2 years I guess. More photos can browse from my FB. Some of them would like to get the triangle ketupat, local kuih and yellow glutinous rice dumpling. So early in the morning, I brought them to visit Hatyai city morning market - Kim Yong to bought those they wanted to buy.
Guess what, Thailand 7 Eleven cannot be miss. Every time the local tour guide bring us back to hotel, we will never miss a round to visit the 7 Eleven (it was just beside our hotel). Not only Thailand, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan and many other countries convenient stores are much more convenient than ours here. Hahaha.
Besides food, shopping and relax - full body massage, we also visited a few temples. This is one of the significant stainless steel temple at Hatyai. It was my first time here too. Our journey was quite smooth and we reach the temple about 7pm. We were lucky to experience the lighting ceremony together among their prayers.
What an enjoyable trip with friends! Relaxing with good food. Thanks for sharing the info. Next time will know where to go if visit these places.
