Trip of 2012 - Hatyai Day 1

Since I promised to blog more in my previous post, I start to do it today! Well, I will blog about the places I've been during my trips in 2012. As you can see from the title, let's talk about Hatyai first! It was my first ever company's trip together with all my colleagues. We spent the weekend in Hatyai for 3 days 2 nights, lots of fun indeed! *My boss already asked all of us start to think where shall we go for trip this year?!*

Here starts with my first day in Hatyai. We went there by a van and the van driver was a Thai (it was quite hard to communicate). We left Butterworth around 5:30am and reached the hotel in Hatyai about 11 something in Thailand time. Still consider early and thus we could do more shopping! Yay!!

We managed to get everything done fast once we got our room's key! So we went out to the streets to get some food for our stomach. We had our first meal in Hatyai at a kopitiam. Selling their local dishes like chicken rice, wan tan mee, koay teow soup and so on. I got myself Wan Tan Mee for my lunch. The Wan Tan Mee served together with a bowl of soup with some fishballs and meatballs. While my beverage was sugar cane drink for the hot weather. Wan Tan Mee - THB50 ; sugar cane drink - THB 25. The food was slightly expensive compare to M'sia. But overall the food taste good!




After finished our lunch, shopping session started! What I can say more about this, girls' power in shopping are really extraordinary! Firstly, we started with the streets nearby. Then Central Mall which situated under our hotel. Tadaah... I managed to take a photo with the model while shopping in the mall! She is beautiful and tall, yes I admit I'm short *sigh*

We took tuk-tuk (a famous transport that must try in Thailand) to market which is few distances away. You can find a lot of clothes which are in cheap and reasonable prices here. Well, we grabbed the chance to try the food sold at the stalls along the roadside. The food were all awesome and special. I can hardly forgot the taste once I tried them!! Both thumbs up!!! Also, we bought some t-shirts with Hatyai wordings printed on it for our day 2, so stay tune for that!!
 Tuk-tuk
 The two must-try food (banana with coconut milk & sausage), very yummy! Especially the sausage that comes in a combination with sour yet spicy sauce *hot!!!!*



I did try the sausage sold in another place the next day. Unfortunately the taste wasn't that good as the one shown in photo above. That is why I highly recommended this place for the above mentioned food.  I always miss the food there, because all are very yummy! :)

Not much photos taken during day 1. As you know, we were busy shopping all the time! *grin* I still have some food photos with me for the dinner. Will upload it in the upcoming post as I'm very tired now! Need to rest badly! Woke up early today to go Penang with the colleagues and reached home around 8pm. Straight away started to blog right after finished my shower! 

I will put more effort in more things in 2013. I want to try and explore new things when I'm still young and able to do it. I want to live my life meaningful with no regrets! Guys, how about y'all? Stay positive and try to live everyday of your life splendid!
