Final Year Crazy Graduation Roadtrip Day 2- Trang - Krabi (Kota Bahru -Trang -Krabi -Phuket-Hatyai)

DAY 2 Trang-Krabi

We wake up in the morning around 6pm to try the famous Ruan Thai Dim Sam



 Ruan Thai Dim Sim


The restaurant  was crowded with local people and also the tourists.


 The dim sum here have a long of variety and some is quite creative




 The 皮蛋瘦肉 here is quite nice and the 油条here is eaten with the kaya source which is a quite good combination




The pork porridge here also quite nice with a poached egg and some internal organ.
The texture is quite smooth and smell quite nice.





Some random picture before moving to Ton Tae waterfall.


 It's take about 1.5 hour journey from Trang town area to Ton Tae waterfall. We are quite lucky as the heavy rain stopped by the time we reach the waterfall.

Ton Tae Waterfall
 Here come the scene of the waterfall after raining. The water is so clear and its different compared to the picture we found in internet. However, we did not manager to go the the top of the waterfall as the road was blocked by tree.


 Wefie session with the waterfall.

 the water pressure was like the natural jacuzzi




 When six pack meet the waterfall...



Group photo before we leave. This waterfall is definitely a good place to visit in Trang as it less commercialized compared to other waterfall in Thailand .


We have our lunch at the famous Trang Mhoo Yang as recommended by local people here.


This is their 招牌菜烧肉. One plate like this only cost 120 baht.


As seen in the picture here, most of it is 瘦肉 and less oily compared to those commonly seen in Malaysia.


 this is the other dishes we ordered.


 The 烧肉 here even can be tapao like this. Seems like this restaurant is quite famous in Trang.
After that, we continued our journey to Krabi.
Its took around 3 hours time.
During the journey, we search the hotel in tripadvisor app and call in the ask about empty room. That's why I said this is the most random trip even, no planning, no pre-booking...XD



Sabai Mansion. This is the hotel we chosen.
 Its located very near the Aonang beech area.

After settle down, we went to the Krabi night market to settle our dinner.
It is a very good place for you to buy the souvenir in cheap price
and also try some local Thailand food.





We tried the Pad thai there. Basically it is 炒粿条 but with nuts on top of it.
It quite nice and only costs 45 Bahts


This Thai Style fried fish also only cost 50 Bahts


This Thai Mihun only costs 25 Bahts and you can add the side dishes as many as you like.
I only can said Thai Hawker really very generous. Although we are tourists, they do not simply charge us. MANA CARI !!


There are some chairs in the centre of the night market to let tourists enjoy their food.
Besides, there are some local performance prepared for tourist also.

Final Year Crazy Graduation Roadtrip Day 1 - Trang (Kota Bahru -Trang -Krabi -Phuket-Hatyai)


This is definitely one of my my random, most crazy trip in my life. Straight away after our  dental professional exam result  coming out, 5 of us have started off a totally 700+km  roadtrip, across 4 state, without having any proper planning as we are totally not dare to plan any trip before result coming out...XD
                         
 2015/8/8, Saturday  Day 1 Trang

 We departed from Kota Bahru around 7am after having our breakfast so that we can reach Trang at afternoon.


Selfie in the car after meaw finally bring out his selfie stick


 Dun know what the purpose of this picture, may be she want to see Meaw nose is real or fake??


 Girls always like to act cute inside the car...haha


 surprisingly the road condition is damn smooth...highly recommended  for road trip


 that's the beautiful and pleasant Garden View hotel just right us after 6 hour road trip from Sungai Golok

We booked the double bed room, the room is so clean.
I will give it he rate 9/10 for its cleanness. The double room rate 
Is 600 baht per day with 300 baht for any additional bed.



Very friendly tourist police at Trang



This is the first meal for our trip. Due to time factor, we just
randomly eat at this restaurant but the economic rice surprisingly nice.



Two dishes for 40 baht, 3 dishes for 50 baht.


This is some vegetables with Thai chili sauce  This is free of charges !!




Highly recommended tourist agent Sai in Trang. Athough we did not follow her trip, she still explain every tourist spot in Trang for us, recommendeed us many nice food and place to hang out.







Since today is consider travel day for us and not much time for us to go to the Trang tourist spot.
Thus, we just walk around the Trang city landmark and explore Thailand local life style.
 This is the advantages  of road trip as you can walk everywhere u want and travel like a local...=D




We have our dinner as recommended by our new local friends . Although  the outlook of the restaurant seem like quite high class, actually the food inside is quite cheap.





 This was the dishes we ordered including green curry, kingsum, tong yam kong. All dishes are delicious  but quite spicy. Cautious for those who cant eat spicy like me...haha...
Surprisingly the total price for this meal is only 390 baht with 5 dishes!!

 We went back to hotel to plan our trip tomorrow,
 that is Ton Tae water fall and the famous Ruan Thai dim sim. 
Actually Trang still have attractions spot like emerald cave and some islands
 but its close during off-peak session and only reopen during Oktober. 
Since we will travel to Krabi and Phuket in next few days also,
this few islands spot in Trang actually not in our plan also.




Before we call it a day, supper session is a must for the guy..
The  beef noodle here is very delicious  and the portion is quite big also.
It just cost 50 baht per bowl !!!
