Description
Join us for a travel vlog as we document our journey from Hong Kong to Bangkok, Thailand flying with SriLankan Airlines from Hong Kong International Airport to Suvarnabhumi Airport (aka Bangkok International Airport). With over 6 hours to kill at the airport we eat Xiaolongbao (小籠包 - 小笼包), wander around Hong Kong International Airport and kill more time by getting some work done online. Overall, it was a long but satisfying travel day as we got to eat some good food, catch up on work and enjoy our first ever flight with Sri Lankan Airlines.

Hong Kong to Bangkok, Thailand travel vlog transcript:
Well, it is time to say fare thee well to Hong Kong (香港). We are currently riding the city flyer to the airport. Yeah. It is a really cheap way to get there. It is really cheap way. Only 33 Hong Kong dollars. Less than five dollars. About four something. Maybe four bucks. So a really cheap way and yeah we're just waiting to go to the airport.
So we made it to the airport here in Hong Kong (香港). We have three hours to kill before we can even check in. And six hours before the flight takes off to Bangkok (กรุงเทพมหานคร). I don't think we told you guys where we were going but we're going to Bangkok (กรุงเทพมหานคร).
And anyways we thought we would eat. Xiaolongbao (小籠饅頭 - 小笼馒头). We found a place that does Xiao Long Bao (小籠饅頭 - 小笼馒头). So exciting.
We just finished having dim sum (點心 - 点心) maybe two hours ago would you say? For breakfast and now it is already lunch. We're pigs. We already have an appetite.
What can I say. But this restaurant looks so good. It is called Crystal Jade and they've got some tasty food.
We don't mess around. We just ordered two baskets of Xiaolongbao (小籠饅頭 - 小笼馒头).
So this is the star of the restaurant. And we became basically Xiao Long Bao (小籠饅頭 - 小笼馒头) addicts while we were in Taipei (臺北市), Taiwan. Yeah.
Yeah, thrilled to get a chance to have it for our last three hours here in Hong Kong (香港).
So we each get our own basket, right? Our own. That is the plan.
You dip it in the soy and vinegar mix put it on the spoon. Break it open the skin. I think this is going to be messy.
There it goes. Woah, so much broth. It is like overflowing. Grab some ginger.
Don't forget the ginger.
This is so hot I can't do it all in one bite. I'm going to scald myself. Drink the soup first. Drink the soup first. And then I'm going to bite into it. This is a two biter.
Oh, spilling the soup everywhere.
Mmm. Good?
It goes nice with ginger.
And?
First in line. A very rare occasion.
This is my airport dance. We're finally boarding. It has been a really long day at the airport. You're probably wondering why we spent six hours here.
It is because we had to check out of the hotel at eleven thirty and we didn't want to leave the stuff and spend time in the city because it was starting to get a little overwhelming. There is a lot of people in Hong Kong (香港). Anyways, we figured airport. Free wifi so yeah we've been here.
Yeah, and it is going to be our first time flying with SriLankan Airlines. Yes, which is exciting. Always like to try flying new airlines. I'm hoping for spicy curries on the menu. Fingers crossed. That would be awesome.
Let's go get in line.
My shoes. My special shoes. Crocs. Haha.
We have landed. We made it. Made it to Bangkok (กรุงเทพมหานคร).
Actually that was an awesome flight. It was. It was really smooth, good food. And it went by so quickly like at one point during my movie they were like please prepare for landing. And I was like oh my gosh it is emergency?
When you actually have a smooth flight you kind of forget you're up in the air. It went by so quickly. Immersed in the experience. I didn't realize we were there already so yeah. So nice to be here. Let's just grab our stuff and get on our way.
Well, we finally made it to the hotel. Yes, that took two transfers, three trains to get here. A lot of hauling our bags up and down stairs. Oh yeah. Oh man. We're sweaty. We're feeling the humidity here in Bangkok (กรุงเทพมหานคร) and we're exhausted. Yeah, so we're just going to call it a night. Yes. Ending the vlog right here. Ta ta!
