"Thank God it's all done" Garo said as she arrived at her room. He did pick up things and brought Trolly and Alesha out of the room. 

Alesha packed their suitcases because tomorrow they're going home to Jogja, two days ahead of their planned schedule.

Garo woke up Alesha who had been sleeping for a while. As soon as Garo pushed the goods out Alesha immediately packed up.

"Nobody missed Yank?" ask Garo.

"God is not. We all separated before Mas came out" replied Alesha.

"Well, we eat first. We're taking a trip to Asiatique to Yank?" Ask Garo.

"You are. If we go to Asiatique from the afternoon Mas departs, "Alesha is tired, but because they are going home tomorrow, so what is the use of this time tonight in Asiatique.

"Yes I mean we've eaten our way to Asiatique" Garo received the food his wife had prepared. Even if you open it yourself can. But because he felt he had a wife, he was waiting for his wife to prepare.

"Tomorrow morning we go to the airport at what time?"

"Our morning prayers we leave Yank. We had breakfast at the airport. Our flight is at 09.00 am," Garo does not want to be late to arrive at the airport, maybe on the road there are obstacles it is better to leave faster to calm down.

"OK," said Alesha. They also had lunch with the menu that Garo bought earlier.

"You didn't tell anyone we're going home tomorrow?" said Garo.

"Not Mas. He said we shouldn't say that we're going home tomorrow" Alesha replied.

"I'm a man."

"Pinter cah ayu. Let surprise mean me."

"Yes, I know" said Alesha.

"Fear our stuff comes first."

"Our goods come one day after we arrive.  So tomorrow the day after tomorrow the goods arrive home." Obviously Garo.

"Good, if the first thing comes, no one is unboxing."

After the meal they prepared to go to Asiatique.

There are many night markets and malls in Bangkok, but if you want the atmosphere is fun, surely Asiatique is the place. It is located on the Chao Phraya River. The view to the location is also super cool!

There are about 140 shops open starting at 17:00 pm Bangkok time. Items sold in Asiatique.  Start clothes, art objects, home decor, souvenirs, food, fashion and accessories. 

Garo and Alesha boarded the BTS commuter train to Saphan Taksin Station and took the stairs to the airport. From Saphan Taksin pier there is a free shuttle boat to Asiatique. But there are still paid boats for those who do not want to queue when they are full.

Asiatique was once a river port warehouse that was renovated into a shopping mall. 

Warehouse architecture is maintained and becomes unique Asiatique. The shopping area is divided into four districts namely Waterfront with neon Asiatique lights that become iconic. There is also Town Square, Charoenkrung and Factory.

"The quality of goods sold in Asiatique is generally better than the goods in the Bangkok night market. Not the market and the model is better." Said Garo while remembering what he wanted to look for in Asiatique later.

Alesha likes her clothing stores selling distro-style models and factory outlets, rather than market clothes that she can find in Khao San, Sukhumvit, Patpong or Pratunam Night Market.

"Bene Mas. The price is comparable too. With better quality, the reasonable price of goods in Asiatique is equivalent to a variety of similar items that tourists encounter in Platinum or MBK Mall in Bangkok. It's a little more expensive than the night market." Alesha. 

"Obviously, Asiatique did win the atmosphere compared to other shopping places in Bangkok, Yank. Here '*sell ambience*.' Located in the Waterfront area only, all tourists feel at home to take pictures of the dim scenery of Bangkok on the edge of the pier with a cool night breeze. I've seen a picture of you as a child against the background of Asiatique's ring."

"Indeed for tourists after tired all day around Bangkok. Asiatique can be the perfect destination to close the day with a good meal, a fun riverfront atmosphere and if there are still many remnants of spirit can continue shopping in this place. Except for the purpose here. From morning to noon save energy. Afternoon cuzz come here for the hunt." Alesha gave an opinion of the place they were going.

Asiatique Bangkok is divided into four categories of locations to help us find what we are looking for without too much hassle. 

Chareonkrung District is a place where you will find most boutiques or small shops selling souvenirs, handicrafts, jewelry, and clothing. The small shops are very interesting. There are many display sales and there is also a wide selection of trendy Thai brands.

Alesha deliberately came to this place first. She wants to buy small glasses with birth dates for Orange, Tama, baby A and baby B.

"Mas want to add a niece or who I don't know?"

"Buy for Ampi's son Yank."

"Did you know her date of birth?" Alesha suspects that Garo has memorized the birth date of Ampi's child.

"Not to be suspicious. Mas memorized the birthday of Ampi's child because the first birthday was invited. Mom says her son's birthday is Ampi Koq with mom. That's why Mas remembered," Garo knew Alesha was suspicious of her proximity to Ampi's wife.

After a lot of souvenir shopping as well as fragrant rooms in the form of various flowers, they headed to the District Factory.

Here sell a variety of electronic needs and supporting items. Garo wanted to look for camera filters to make the photos she produced more detail.

All of course to support his business is to make plant photos become better. 

"Is there anything to look for?" Garo asked his wife.

"I've not been Mas. Daritadi I just Nemani Mas aja."

"Would we eat at the Waterfront District or eat at a floating restaurant?" Ask Garo wisely. Of course she wants him to eat at the floating restaurant. He wants a romantic atmosphere. But he won't decide without a discussion with his wife.

"Way romantic how if we eat at the restaurant terpung aja Mas? Here the menu we have tried but the atmosphere at the restaurant is clearly different," Alesha certainly wants to eat at the floating restaurant.

"Yes, let's go to the floating restaurant" Garo was happy to find his wife as thoughtful as he was.
