Well, we were lucky that our rooms were available when we arrived. So we went straight to our room after enjoying some complimentary tea:
After that, while Ah Kong and Ah Ma relaxed in the room, we all went about with our own plans.
Ko-ko - headed to the climbing gym which you had discovered had just opened
Daddy - headed to his favourite massage parlor Oliver for his massage
Mei-mei and mummy - walked down the street to a nail parlor to have our nails done
What happened:
Ko-ko: So smart to call for Grab Bike. Got the fright of his life. Claimed to have seen his life flash pass him. Came back via Grab CAR. Ahahaa
Daddy: Ah.. reminded of Grab Bike after Ko-ko mentioned riding a bike. So hopped on one too. Was giddily happy zooming around on the bike. Nearly forgot that his glasses was on top of his head. Would have flown off had he not recalled on time
Mei-mei: First experience with gel nails. But came prepared. Showed the nail technician the desired design
Mummy: Happy I got my nails done
We walked to a nearby shop selling clickers. But it was so full of children (and adults) picking the ornaments. So we gave up. I told you we had other days to try since we're not leaving so soon. Either to come early in the morning on Monday or maybe even try Sunday. So we headed back to the hotel.
We could not decide where to go for dinner. But since everyone was probably tired of Thai food, we decided to try steaks. Found this place "Meats and Beans" which had good rating on Google. Sent them a WhatsApp text but did not receive an answer. Ended up asking the front desk to help us call them and make a reservation. Then they said they were full and then I received a text that we had a table. A bit of confusion, but in the end we managed to get a reservation.
We got into a tuk-tuk which was parked right outside our hotel. Ah Ma said that she was able to climb on. Everyone helped her up and off we went.
Tuk-tuk ride for the Bans
To our surprise we were given a "private room". Unfortunately, it seems like it was used as a storage room for a long time so there were lots mosquitoes. But the waiter was very good about it and came with a plug in mosquito repellant.
We placed orders for our food and soon we were served the delicious food. We brought with us the wines we had bought at the border intended for the dinner at Charmed. Family photo
We enjoyed the food:
Smoked BBQ Corn Ribs
Steak Tartare
Bone marrow and garlic bread
Extra bread
Sausages
They had a big selection of steaks. We opted for these three:
Evelyn and the cheese balls
After paying for the bill, daddy called the tuk-tuk driver who sent us here.
Upsy-daisy for Ah Ma into the tuk-tuk:
