Runcation: Hatyai - Day 2: Race Kit Collection & ASEAN Night market

Date: 22th-24th May, 2015

Our most important plan for today was the race kit collection at Jiranakom Stadium. We walked about 1km to reach there, stopping by the tea stall along the way.

The stadium was already busy when we reached there around noon. Among all the run I have ever registered, this is the most laid back event. The collection was located in an indoor badminton court area. It's a huge space with few sections. There were the collection center on the front left and registration tables to the right (for walk-ins registration). The best thing is that u can choose what type of shirt u want to run with: t-shirt or sleeveless. And u can change the size on the spot.

Outside, there were various stalls selling sports clothing. Very cheap when u compare to the same thing in Malaysia. Some things were obviously fake, but some were genuine. I bought some running skirt (which I have yet to wear LOL), headband and a cap.

Race kit done, it's time to fill in our stomach. This time we head to Salma Restaurant near Lee Garden area. It was marvelous. Quite cheap and tasty. Pure Thai taste.

After the late lunch, we head back to the hotel to freshen up. 

Later in the evening, we planned to go to the largest flea market there but boy we're wrong. We thought THE market is located at Central Festival Mall (since there're tonnes of flea market banner around the area). Turned out that the market located next to the mall is just a small local market at a size of 1/3 of a football field -_-'

Thanks to Mr.Google, we found another market, "Asian Night Market". Well, from the name one would assume it's only opened at night but upon arriving, i doubt it. It's a huge trade center with proper open-style building. It's like a place in downtown Shah Alam, but 4x the size and multiple building.

Being a lady, of coz all of our eyes grew bigger. Which lady doesn't like affordable and quality things to shop, right?!?

We walked around, finding some clothing and cosmetics before heading upstairs to food heaven (we only walked around 1 building). Perfect place for carbo-loading hahahaha! Anyway, we tapau-ed a bunch of food - nasi kuning with ayam rempah, sushi, tempura mushrooms and the best tea from cute bunch of Thai lads.

After a long day, we ended the day with a housecall massage at the hotel. If i'm not mistaken, it's BHT350 for an hour full body massage. What happened that night, is a secret that only 5 of us knows hahahaha.
