Last Minute Shopping Before Leaving Hatyai

THE VERY NEXT MORNING AFTER OUR BUFFET BREAKFAST AT THE HOTEL, we took the Tut-tut to the market which was just a ten minutes drive away.  We have a few hours to while away in the market, that is where our goodies were bought...  Yes, most of the stuff belongs to my girl, no new clothing though, just a backpack, dry foodstuff and a set of Zebra thermos.  That is the most worth buying item, I can say......

No pictures on the market..... but on the way back in the Tut-Tut cab, we saw this.... 
A group of pretty ladies were singing on the road....
Not sure they are singing or rapping or promoting something... 
But they sure look like they were enjoying themselves... 
Back at the hotel, we packed up our stuff and checked out.... 
It was about noon and our transport would only arrive around 3pm...
With a few hours more to go, we checked out the shopping complex just beneath the hotel....
Security at the entrance.... 
There was some event going on, something like Thailand got Talent contest... 
We went up to the second level where the Idea Market was held.... 
Lots of souvenirs for sale.... kind of tempted but our bags were already full and packed up...
We only got some earrings... 5 pairs for 100 bahts.. 
Heard that Swenson's is worth eating over here.... 
Since we were still full from the buffet breakfast, we just ordered a "light" one to try...
One piece of chocolate moist cake and one scoop... 139 bahts... almost RM15?
Slurpilicious! 
The van arrived at the hotel punctually at the scheduled time... 
Driver was obliging, took us around to see the outskirts of the town
 and stopped at a convenience store.... 
Recommended us to buy these "Giant Vitagens" home.... 
And so we did!
I think it cost around RM4 plus for one bottle.... 
That is the end of our short stay in Hatyai...
The next time we go, we will plan for a longer stay!

  7. Looks like such fun! And I see there is a MacDonalds there! Have you ever eaten there? I think the food you eat would be much more healthy.
