I haven't been blogging about my journey to Penang.
darn..my pc is slowly crashing and
my speed of typing is faster than the letters are appearing on screen.
Briefly, I visited Penang... again!
well, just to exchange cars with her.
lol..not driving my brother's car.
My eye got bruised when I opened the car door.
ok..blame on my slow reaction.
Then we tried for the very first time to Hatyai.
It was quite an experience.
Only took about 2 hours from sg. petani to hatyai.
We drove to the border and parked the car in no man's land.
As soon as we crossed the border, we took the van that locals take for longer distance trip.
Basically, most of them were heading to Hatyai.
darn..we were 1-day late for songkran festival.
So many shops were closed and we were lost at first.
Clueless of what to do next.
It seemed like a ghost town.
Anyway, one thing for sure was to go to around lee garden's hotel where the most happening area.
We took a tuk-tuk to the market , with the help of a thai lady whom I bought som tam from.
Nothing much to brag about this place.
Food is ok...not much to shop.
My aim was to buy bok-bok.
About 4pm, we took the van to the border and did some shopping for instant noodles.
From this onwards, the real adventure begun.
Our car battery died.
Rain was pouring heavily and we had to wait.
Luckily, the thai guys were helpful.
They pulled the car to a shed and jump started the car.
On our way home, we tried to find a mechanic or auto part shops.
However, looking at the time passing 7pm, everyone's at home by then.
Again, almost bad luck but not totally, we found one that opened.
business finished and done.
