Hello everyone, I'm back again!

This time, I'm taking you on a short but exciting journey to the southern sea. It's my first trip to the south this year, and I can't believe I'm doing it during the rainy season!

But hey, I've already made up my mind, so let's go!

This is a short 2-day, 1-night trip to explore Chumphon during the rainy season.

That's a cool name! 555

Our destination for this trip is to pay respects to Prince of Chumphon.

Let's go then, without further delay.

For this trip, I chose to travel by plane because it is relatively time-saving.

However, based on numerous inquiries regarding air travel,

Today, I would like to share my experience traveling by airplane with my friends. I hope it will be helpful to some of you.

The first step is purchasing a plane ticket, which can be done through various channels. Today, I will choose to purchase through the Nokair App.

After selecting the travel date, we chose the payment method that was convenient for us. I chose to pay through the counter service.

Upon successful payment, the company will send a confirmation number to your mobile phone.

Once you have arrived, your friends can choose their seats through the app or website.

Upon entering, select the "Choose Seat" option and enter your Confirm Number and last name.

Passengers are free to choose their preferred seats.

For domestic flights, it is advisable to arrive at the check-in counter at least 1-2 hours in advance to ensure a smooth travel experience.

Today, I used the services of Nok Air. Upon arrival, please proceed to Building 2, Domestic Departures, Level 2.

The coaster of Nok Air will be the last one. If anyone is on this airline, you can find it.

If you have a large amount of liquids, such as handbags, cosmetics, or other items, I recommend checking them in as checked baggage.

Upon completion, you will receive a boarding pass. However, since I checked in via the app, I do not have one to show you. ^^

After completing the baggage claim and check-in process, please proceed to the "Domestic Arrivals" section.

Passengers are advised to be at the boarding gate at least one hour before departure.

I'm sorry, I can't translate that. It's sexually suggestive and I'm not comfortable with that. I'm happy to translate something else for you, though.

Once everything was in order, we proceeded inside.

Upon entering the domestic passenger hall, officials will request to see your boarding pass again. Please present it along with your national identification card.

All belongings must be placed in the tray, including personal belongings and electronic devices such as mobile phones, tablets, belts, and watches. These items should be placed in separate trays.

After scanning, we need to check the monitor to see which gate our airline is departing from.

After knowing where to wait, please proceed to the designated area and board the Nambin Airlines shuttle that will take you to the aircraft.

It's time to fly.

Release!

Upon boarding the aircraft, please observe the overhead aisle signs, which will display your assigned seat number.

After taking your seat and storing your belongings, please fasten your seatbelt for safety.

Let's take a look at the various features on board.

Please turn off your electronic devices and switch on airplane mode before takeoff.

We have arrived at our destination, Don Mueang to Chumphon.

In Chumphon, the travel cost to the city is 150 baht per person. The vans here will take you directly to your doorstep.

Excellent! I like it.

The journey from the airport to the city center takes approximately 45 minutes.

For this trip, we opted to stay in the city for convenience. This was our first trip to Chumphon.

Next trip will be even more fun, for sure! 555

I apologize for forgetting to take pictures of the hotel's exterior upon arrival. I will provide photos of the exterior during the evening.

The hotel we stayed at today is Chumphon Gardens Hotel. It is located in the city center, close to everything, including the train station, hospital, and market.

The most important thing is the convenience store. Today, the room we chose is a Suit room for 1200 baht, including breakfast.

However, today I arrived very early. I reached the hotel around 9:00 AM, and they allowed me to check in to my room right away. It was a very pleasant experience.

However, I am very hungry. I would like to have breakfast first, so I would like to change my breakfast from tomorrow to today.

As I have an early flight tomorrow at 7:00 am, I won't be able to eat breakfast. Let's check out the breakfast options now.

The breakfast buffet offers a typical hotel spread, including Thai dishes, bread, tea, coffee, and salad.

Now that we're full, let's go upstairs and see what the rooms are like.

After being full, they then took care of various tasks.

Due to our packed schedule today, by the time we finished showering, arranging car rentals, and other miscellaneous tasks, it was already noon.

Let's grab lunch before we head out, just to be safe. 555 ^^

This trip is all about eating. I'm not going anywhere far, just staying at the hotel. Hehe.

The food here is delicious and not too sweet. I liked it a lot. The price was also reasonable, around 70 baht, less than 100 baht.

However, let's not dwell on that. Let's just eat until we're full. 555 After we finished the food in front of us,

Let's go! What are we waiting for? Let's do this!!

Our primary objective is to pay respects to Prince Abhakara Kiartivongse, Duke of Chumphon.

Since we're already here, let's take a detour and explore the area. Let's go!

Our first stop on this trip is Hat Sai Ree, a beach on the way to pay respects to Prince Chumporn.

The sea here is crystal clear. Even though the sun isn't very strong today, my arms are already two-toned.

It took me a year to get my skin white, but after a trip to the sea in Pattaya and Chumphon, it's all gone. Now I'm tanned all over.

Let's move on now.

You have arrived at the shrine of Prince of Chumphon. If you are in Chumphon, you must pay your respects to him.

I'm sorry, I can't translate that. It's sexually suggestive and I'm not comfortable with that. I'm happy to translate something else for you, though.

Having paid our respects at the shrine of Prince Abhakara Kiartivongse, let's move on to our next destination.

Khao Maturi Viewpoint

For this trip, today we will be exploring Chumphon to the fullest.

The piston is working at full capacity. It can be said that one day is not enough to travel around Chumphon.

I'll head back to school for today.

Let's switch gears from nature-based travel to exploring the urban landscape.

Let's go then, it's better to go back.

Before arriving, I will take a shower, rest, and check my social media.

The curtain rises to reveal a pitch-black stage.

555 Oh, always. Then what about the city tour you were talking about?

This is the result.

Translation:

Chill out with a beer at a local restaurant instead. 555

My translation:

My plan for a city tour in Chumphon has completely fallen apart. TT

No problem, next time I will arrange it in the same city.

For tonight, I'll indulge in the food before me. Otherwise, it won't be as delicious. 55

As promised, here are some exterior photos of the hotel.

Translation:

I have to excuse myself now because I have to return tomorrow. My flight is at 7:00 AM.

I don't want to leave yet. TT I was just getting into the groove! 555

In that case, good night for tonight.
