8/14 in Thailand

2nd Sightseeing Day in Thailand

I was in Ayutthaya on this day.
There are so many places to see in Ayutthaya.
I even can’t count them, but at the end, I asked a TukTuk guy who took us to many places to stop going temples...
We were planning to go to Ayutthaya from Bangkok by train, and after getting there, we were thinking to rent a bike to look around.
However, when we asked a cab to take us to a train station, the driver told me not to take train to go.
He suggested us to take a van from a certain place, which cost us much cheaper to go.
So we did.
After we got off from the van, there was a guy who told us to take his Tuk Tuk.
We really wanted to rent a bike, but he said it is impossible for us to look everything by bike.
Especially, it was such a hot day.
So we started negotiate with him for ten minutes, and got discount so we decided to take Tuk Tuk, which was the first experience for us.
It is an interesting ride, but I got sooooo dirty because of the bad air from other cars, and sand.
First I thought I got sun tan, but after I took shower, I realize that was just dirt on my body…

We talked with lot of people during this one-day Ayutthaya trip.
It is interesting that there are many young travelers who have similar purpose to visit.
So many huge things in Ayutthaya moved me.
They made me think lots of stuff.

After we finished sightseeing, we went to see a guy whom I was introduced.
He lives in Japan and works at Honda, but he works in Thailand a couple months in a year.
We could not get the place correctly, and got a city where no foreigners.
I got scared a bit, kind of, but quite an experience.
He knows a local restaurant, and had the best Tom Yang Kun ever.
While we were eating, unknown other customers spoke to us, and planned see in Osaka soon.
We never know when we make friends.

After eating, we went to see a light up in Ayutthaya, and I was really excited!

It was such a long day, but fully enjoyed Ayutthaya!

8/13 in Thailand

1st Sightseeing Day in Thailand

I got 9 days summer vacation from work this year.
I was pretty sure to go abroad, but have not decided where, but maybe to the US.
Last month, my friend, Ayako, asked me if I was interested in going to Thailand.
Thailand is one of the countries where I always wanted to go.
So soon I decided to go to Thailand with Ayako.
We departed separately so we arrived there at different time.
I arrived there earlier and was very hungry, so when Ayako arrived, we ran to a place to eat.
We were so ready to eat, but the restaurant we entered, there was no English menu.
We had no idea what it says, we even could not guess.
Therefore, we showed a guidebook and pointed picture on a book.
All the dished they brought was extremely hot!!!
I was so nervous if I can keep eating Thai food during this trip.

So this is a collage of our first day of sightseeing in Japan.
I took so many pictures and wanted to put all pictures, so I made a collage.
I was amazed that how beautiful all the building in Bangkok.
On 8/13, we joined a tour in Bangkok.
We went to Wat Arun and a temple of Emerald Buddha in Bangkok on this day.
We climbed up the high “thing” at Wat Arun, it was very high and very scarly…
However the view was excellent.
Also when we were at a temple of Emerald Buddha, we happened to see a changing of the guard ceremony.
After these sightseeing, we went to a hotel to experience Thai food Buffet.
Since we were in a tour, we got to be close to other people in our group, whom we would not usually be able to be friends.
After we separated with this group, we went to eat Thai Suki and took subway to go to luxury spa!
Each room has a shower, sofa, bed, etc, etc.
It was 2 hours long, and still much cheaper than spa in Japan!!

Anyway, we got so many experiences on this day in Bangkok, which was hard to summarize.

Internet Connection

Having Internet Connection At Home

Finally I got Internet connection at my apartment.
I was waiting for this day soooo long.
Now I can do lots of stuff with my PC.
At work, surfing Internet is getting really difficult.
I know I am at office not to net surfing, but still I want to research something through Internet.
They got some sort of software to check what kind of site each employee look by their computer.
Sucks…
I got new PC at office, so I got my old one as my private PC.
Therefore, I work at home too, like this picture.
I make many kinds of pancakes, take pictures, and prepare to make manual to sell those.

Since I got Internet connection at home, now I wanna get two things.
One is Desktop computer.
Using laptop computer is quite convenient, but still I think desktop computer is easy to use.
Moreover, now Mac got a new version of iMac, I think I should get one.
20 inches big screen!
Also, I would like to buy a nicer digital camera.
I love taking picture, but still there are not much things I can do with my current one.
Well, I think it is good for me that there are a couple things I wanna buy.
I raise my motivation to make money.
Having avarices is very important to be a successful businessperson, I heard.
Once in a while, I become a person who just can’t stop using money to do whatever I wanna do without thinking carefully.
Now I am becoming like that.
Gotta be careful…
Anyway, having Internet connection at home is great, especially there are lots of things I wanna know in this world now.
