Chill out after crazy walk on the first day…

After a crazy walk on the first day, my feet were sore and I didn’t really want to abuse my feet anymore. I decided to take it easy today. I went to Cole’s supermarket in Queen Plaza for groceries shopping. It was not too far from the apartment even though I need to walk uphill back. The supermarket is well organised and well stocked. I got some chocolate croissants for HG for breakfast and some food for dinner. I came back from the supermarket and started cooking. I had to meet HG at HSBC on Queen Street at 4:20pm. He wanted to check something with the bank before we went to Medicare Office at Myer Center. We waited in the queue at Medicare office for a while and found out that HG didn’t bring enough document for them to proceed further. So we had to come back the next day.
Myer center is more like Central Department Store in Bangkok. We went to the kitchen and household department to look for oven gloves and potato peeler. Actually there is a potato peeler in the apartment but it’s all rusty. I afraid that HG would cut himself with it, so it would be better to get a new one. We stopped at the Mill Hotel for a glass of Pepsi and 2 pints on the way back to the apartment. We had beef and sausage casserole with rice for dinner. It was very good.
The next day, it’s Friday, I didn’t go out during the day again because I had some work to do. I met HG in front of Medicare office at 4:30pm. It went well this time we got the Medicare number. On the way back to the apartment, Queen Street mall was packed with people. It was mad and difficult to walk.
