Don Hoi Lot & Amphawa Floating Market Trip 6.09.08



Though I am 8 months pregnant, I was still game enough go for a day trip to Don Hoi Lot (Gulf of Thailand) and Amphawa Floating market. We had lunch at one of the restaurant near the sea and feasted on a buffet of exotic seafood which we couldn't get in Bangkok. There was the dinosour crabfish, yabbies, curry crab, fresh steam fish, Ota-ota (fish dumpling), hot tom yum goong and of course my favorite crab with grass noodles in the hotpot.

Afterwards, we wandered around the fish market that sales bulk dried seafood like fish stick, dried squid and shrimp which my sister bought to bring home and share with family back in Singapore.

We continued our journey to Amphawa Market and there's just so many people. Hubby Philip went to check out the resort around the area while we walked from one end to another enjoying the sights of locals buying local produce and fresh food. We tasted thai dessert which is similar to Leong Fun back home but with a dash of palm toddy and syrup.

Mione had fun with her stick ice cream and was reluctant to share it mum wherelse Mummy Uaa and Daddy Wee Lee was busy capturing Mione's antic through their digital camera lenses. You can see a collection of the photos in the slide show above.

Enjoy now.
