Happy shopping family trip - Hat Yai (Day 1, 09 May - 11 May 2012)

This trip is considered as the 2nd 'After Tragedy' trip due to the bomb case happened in Lee Garden Plaza a month ago before we visited Hat Yai. (My 1st 'After Tragedy' trip was in New Zealand which hit by earthquake...) Before the trip, we were considering whether to cancel the trip, but since we'd booked the air tickets, hotel and ground tour, it would be troublesome to cancel it.

According to my mum, this is the second time I visited Hat Yai when I was a kid. But, the memory is vanished from my brain... Haha... Never mind, here I came again to refresh my memory! Hehe :P

Maybe after the tragedy, there were not many foreign visitors came to Hat Yai during our stay there, so I felt the streets were quite empty and quiet. We also saw some polices and soldiers were performing security checks at some shopping malls and parking areas.

Regardless about the closed down of Lee Garden Plaza, we still enjoyed ourself with the shopping and eating around Hat Yai during this Day 1 free and easy trip. We bought many snacks especially Lay's potato chips, it is more flavours selling in 7-Eleven convenient stores there.

Mermaid welcomed our arrival at the Hat Yai Airport :)

On the way to Odean Shopping Mall, saw this hawker stall at the roadside was selling giant prawns! According to my tour guide, it might not be so fresh, so eat at your own risk! Haha...
