We went to Asean Trade night market at 5 p.m. Not all shops were opened yet so we just window shopping for a while. The things there were very cheap compared with the things sold at Central Festival mall. However, I still prefer Taiwan's night market. So we ended up buying a few things only because the things were not that cheap actually after we converted to MYR. It was very hot in the night market. We felt like we were trapped inside the heat. After shopping for a while, we decided to go upstairs to have our dinner.

I ordered Pad Thai.

After we unpacked our things and took a short nap, we walked to Lee Garden mall to have our lunch. However, there were not many choices there and my friends told me that they wanted to try local food instead of the fast food that were sold in the mall. So we board a tuk tuk to go to the Central Festival mall. It was very hot in the afternoon and we felt like we wanted to recharge from the long bus journey from KL. So we decided to have our lunch in the mall. And I told my friend to 'save' their stomach for the night market's food.

Whee. Happy kids on a tuk tuk. A bumpy trip to the mall. For solo travelers, it's better to go back to the centre of Hatyai city before the evening. The road from the mall back to Hatyai city was very dark and some roads that the tuk tuk passed by were without streetlights and deserted. Luckily there were four of us in the tuk tuk.   

This was my lunch. Thai fried rice! 

I ordered McFlurry for my dessert.

Sia: So nervous la first time I try this.

Marry: Look not bad actually la..Like Malay's laksa..Hmm.

Sia: I'm too hungry already..Just eat la.

Marry: Me too leh. slurp..

 Sia: Om Nom Nom Nom Nom.. Not bad huh. I can accept the taste la. 

My friends ordered the Thai traditional food. Their comment on the food was not bad.

Wefie like nobody's businesses. We owned the mall. XD. Too bored. Too disappointed because the price for ice-skating was expensive on that day.

We also hunt for the Hokkaido Milk Ice Cream! We ordered Yogurt flavour and Lavender flavour. All tasted like heaven~ 60THB per scoop.

Refreshing!

After spending the hot afternoon in the mall, we walked to the Asean night market. Many tuk tuk drivers were calling us to take the rides. We googled the distance it's just 5 minutes' walk to reach the night market. So, we choose to walk to save budget. And Central Festival mall is really near to Asean night market. However, the traffic there were crazy. We had to be extra be careful to cross the roads. Cars, motorcycles and tuk tuk were speeding in all ways.

We booked a one day tour from our hostel. We get to choose 5 destinations that we wanted to visit. the first one that we went on this one day tour was Hatyai Municipal Park. We woke up early in the morning, got dressed and we waited for our driver to arrive. At first I thought  that Eddie, the owner of the hostel would arrange a Tuk tuk trip for us to discover Hatyai. We were very thankful when we saw a cab arriving in front of the hostel. It was very comfortable to travel with a cab. Cheap! As I had mentioned in my previous blog post before. It is not advisable to use a tuk tuk to travel for long distance journey. So yeah. Thank God.

We didn't realised that there's one more spot to see the nice panoramic view of Hatyai city after we saw this standing Buddha statue at the hill. We were excited to walk up there. We couldn't find the way to the top because there's no signage. Thus, we just followed the crowd.

View from the Guanyin temple.

Serendipity.

Make memories we knew would never fade!

Writing wishes on the wind chimes.

Continued to walk.

Smiling buddha.

Oh God, still a long way to go actually! We spent two hours at the Hatyai Municipal Park.

Live while we're young. The view was breathtaking!

Many devotees were praying for blessings.

Lastly, let's end this post with 'Whatever you do, do it with your heart and soul~'
