Backdate: Khao Kho trip Aug 2018 Day 4 & 5
25/8/18 Sat: We checked-out from Phu Sandao resort at about 11am, and left the place after taking the complimentary breakfast. The sky looked gloomy that day, but we were still looking forward to a day of adventure at Khao Kho National Park (rappelling at Wang Tum waterfall) or Phu Kaew resort and adventure park.
The former was not opened due to bad weather, and Wit drove some distance to Phu Kaew resort and adventure park, which the person told us it was opened, despite some drizzle. But to our dismay, we kept going to the wrong destination even as Wit followed Google maps and asked people around the area. Soon, the rain worsened and we reckon it was fated that we were not supposed to experience any kind of adrenaline rush that day uh?
Changed plans and we drove to Tanrak Talaymok
for lunch instead, a place I googled online last minute. Pretty sceneries
around, and the decoration of the toilet makes one feel like they’d stepped
into nature~
Photo-taking time for us ladies while Wit
waited for the food at our table…
Lunch came and we had red Curry with chicken (the
meat was a tad too hard), stir-fry cabbage with oyster sauce was yummy, and the
phad thai was good! I had the matcha with milk too… shiok. Costed us 630 baht
in all.
After that, Wit drove us to De Capoc resort to
put our luggage down and rest before our visit to Lom Sak street that opens in
the evening. We were given welcome drinks, and the staff brought us to our
Twins deluxe room on the first floor (107)~ We paid 3500.11 baht on the spot
for a night of stay with buffet breakfast… and the design of the room and
surroundings were very much to my liking. *There
is rain shower omg!*
Near the dining area was a infinity pool.
Photos online has it that we can see the sunrise in the morning from the pool
(but we didn’t as we were tired), and even though it was drizzling, Jess and I
decided to take a dip in the pool since there was no one there anyway.
We took some photos before going out~ look at
the views! There were so few people there that it felt like we’d booked the
WHOLE resort lol.
It was 6pm when we reached Lom Sak walking
street. There were some locals and some street stalls that were opened, not
all. Most of them sold food, but there were a few that sold clothes and
accessories etc. *There was a shop that
sold kittens too!*
We had some fried egg and crabsticks and
sausages (20 baht), vermicelli rolls with shrimp (10 baht) and fried chicken
skin with rice wrapped inside (20 baht) which was plain but nice. After walking
for a while, the rain got heavier and most stalls actually starting closing by
then.
We crossed a colourful bridge and went to the
other side of the river, but there was nothing much to see, just some students practicing
K-pop dance in the open. We ate the eggs I had in Chiangmai (15 baht) but it
tasted much saltier here.
