Our 8th Wedding Anniversary
Hubby took me to the 59th floor of Banyan Tree Hotel in Bangkok to celebrate our special day, what a great experience!
A MUST do if you are ever in Bangkok.

Little Miss - Cooking
She came home on Thursday after school singing "e..e... egg on the pan ..." and told me happily that she learnt how to make scrambled egg in school !
So the next morning when I drop her in her class I asked her teacher if she really made the scrambled egg and Teacher Michelle said that it is true and she ate it all for lunch. Apparently she had drop the egg on the floor on the first attempt to crack the egg but the cook gave her a new one then she proceed to make it all by herself.
Sure enough when I asked her what she wants for lunch today she said she wants to make her own scrambled egg ... one happy Mami here :)

Bridge on the River Kwai
Located 128kms to the west of Bangkok, Kanchanaburi's main claim to fame is the famous Bridge on the River Kwai, popularized by Pierre Boulle's novel of 1956 and the epic film of the same name made in 1958 (won 7 Oscars, 3 BAFTA Awards, 3 Golden Globes, etc).
The bridge was built during WW II and now the track is developed into a walkway with side platforms, this allows crossing the railway bridge on foot. These platforms are useful as viewpoints and for avoiding trains (Orient Express passsing by this route !). A small tourist train runs back and forth across the bridge too, cost Baht 50 per person in August 2010, obviously Little Miss favorite part of the trip :)
Our first trip exploring Bangkok provinces with our own car and relying it solely on the GPS, so happy to know that everything works out great. The infrastructure is amazing here, the roads are wide and no traffic whatsoever. Our Little Miss enjoyed the ride, plenty of things to see and we've seen many Factory Outlets shop (although we didn't stop to any, I was more interested in the Orchid's nurseries along the way, will blog it separately).
Enjoy the photos !!!

Second time crossing, no safety railings ! |

Lumphini Park
Our Little Miss loves this park, 5 minutes away by car from our home and there's 57.6-hectare open space with trees, artificial lake and playgrounds in the heart of Bangkok. We usually go there on Saturday after 4 pm, Hubby will jog, Little Miss will ride her pink bike and I will walk briskly behind her. This time around I brought my camera and managed to capture some shots (while catching my breath *winks*)
During winter time (November - February), the Palm Garden of Lumphini Park becomes the site for the annual Concert in the Park festival featuring classical music by the Bangkok Symphony Orchestra and other bands, will definitely make a point to see it.
Have a great weekend everyone !
