Hi! We are the Shoemakers.
Yesterday we visited the biggest
shopping mall in Chaweng
in Koh Samui. When we entered the Mall
they first checked our temperature to see
if any of us have a fever, which luckily
we didn't.
We also had to sanitize our hands and
Hailey has gotten quite used to this
whole process she actually finds it kind
of entertaining
and fun especially because the people
taking our temperature are usually
really friendly.
we also had to sign in and leave our
name and phone number
just in case there would be any covid
cases associated with the Shopping Mall.
This way they would be able to easily
track us down and test us or ask us to
self-quarantine.
Central Festival Samui describes itself
as the most complete and largest
lifestyle shopping complex in Samui. 
It has
three stories and around 90 000 square
meters of retail space.
It is a huge shopping and dining mall
located between Chaweng's beach road and
the nearby lake
There's a Tops market here which is a
food store, a grocery store. It's
really expensive but it has some really
delicious imported stuff in case you're
missing something from home
you can get it here in the Tops market.
But yeah, really expensive.
The Mall is divided into four sections
Chaweng Port,
Birdcage, Fisherman Village and Beach
Town Market.
It has a central open air atrium and a
beautifully landscaped garden area
with benches, a kids playground and
countless shops and restaurants.
The last time we were here all
playgrounds were closed and Hailey now is
really happy that
everything is open again.
Sawadee Ka and welcome to the biggest Shopping Mall
in Koh Samui. This is Central Festival
Samui
and it reopened in june after the
lockdown. We came here once in June
and a lot of the shops were actually
still closed, so we thought we'd come
here again today
have a look around, see what's opened up
and uh have a good time
show you guys around and obviously eat
some good food.
Oh yeah hold up wait i'm coming.
You have to stand on the feet. Do i have to look
into the corner? Yeah you have to.
Hailey you too, you have to turn around so
you're standing on the feet properly.
Look the feet are looking that way you
have to look to the wall.
And me... I have to stand like this
Okay. Are we allowed to look back?
No! Don't look.
We have to push the button.
Are we going to number 2?
This one look the top one this one. 
Good job.
All right Hailey, whoa
It's really common here in Thailand to
have these
arcades, like these games for the kids
and fishing for the stuffed animals
Right? it's so colorful Max isn't it? oh
my gosh always blinking lights,
all these blinking lights everywhere!
Here we go where are you going Hailey?
it's not going to be easy getting Hailey.
to leave this place.
It seems like a lot of things are still
closed. The toilets in the restaurants
are still closed,
you can't use those and uh yeah a lot of
the shops are still closed a lot of the
restaurants are closed
a lot of I guess it's not worth it to
open for a lot of the businesses here.
There are some very interesting things
on the menu here like these chicken feet.
Not for us vegans
It's impossible to find toilets here
because we follow this to
this couple the man and the woman
but now it's a healthy and beauty salon
though it's not a toilet.
So we have to walk the other side again.
Hailey toilet. Ah!
yeah yeah what's that? Mama toilet. and
that?
Hailey sink. and this one? Mama sink.
and what's this one?
That's for daddy. Ah so a family.. it's a
family toilet we can all pee at the same
time right?
Yes huh did you already wash your hands in the Hailey sink? and Max?
you have to wash your hands in the Hailey sink
do you have soap in the Hailey sink or
do you need some from my side?
Foamy soap
That's cool. Good job.
You got your own sink here isn't that
cool? Where can I wipe?
There's nowhere to wipe so you just have
to use your dress Hailey,
it's just gonna have to be that.
thats just toilet paper.
let's see if we can outfit on this
We just found out that you're not allowed
to film in the most places of the mall
that i've just been filming in
oops! so i think we're gonna go outside
in a minute because there's a market
happening outside which is
also one of the reasons we came here
today Max. Because every Wednesday
every wednesday there is a food market
outside. One of the reasons we came here
on a Wednesday is because every
Wednesday night they have a night market
outside of central festival
with food stalls and we're gonna have
our dinner there tonight.
I have started intermittent fasting for
the past two weeks
which means i'm very hungry right now
because what i do is i
don't eat for 16 hours and then i eat
for eight hours and i feel like today i
didn't really eat in these eight hours
so i'm very excited to eat some food in
the market i'm just
doing the intermittent fasting to
cleanse myself a little bit
and also to get rid of a few pounds that
i haven't lost yet from pregnancy so
so Hailey let's go see what they have. What do you feel like eating?
look at this
it's egg on a stick. Look at it's egg on
a stick
You just make the egg on a grill?
or how do you make this? Steam.
and that's meat, meatballs. thank you. Khob kun ka
sausages, kebab,
crispy pancakes
meat wow there's a lot of meat again.
There is a lot of good vegetables and
fruits we're not suffering here in
thailand as uh
as people who don't eat meat but at
these markets it seems to be
let's get a shake first shall we get a
shake? smoothie?
i want a passion fruit as always.
for healthy skin, good vision, detox,
blood pressure, cellulite, high in fiber,
anti-cancer, i think that's anti-cancer,

eyesight boosters, stomach care, super
vitamin, anti-aging, skin care, body
booster, heart booster, relax,
do it yourself.
All for 40 baht that's about one dollar

fruit smoothie.

carroty. it's okay it's really carroty
it's really healthy and carotty
it's okay yeah. 
They do this to keep away the flies
they put these swingy fan thingies above
the meat
crickets, grasshoppers,
what are these called? silk worms
we're getting a pad thai with vegetables
and no eggs
 
it was definitely a good idea to ask for
extra peanuts
we should always do that
We weren't able to finish the end of our
vlog last night because after the pad thai
the kids got so tired that we had to
take them home
and we bought some fried rice and some
pad thai some more pad thai, we took it home
to eat.
Hailey fell asleep on the couch she was
so tired um it was one of the hottest
days yesterday that we've had that we've
experienced i think
since coming to Thailand in February so
i think that's why everybody got really
tired in the end
but i just wanted to say thank you so
much for watching until here if you've
made it this far
have a great week and i'll see you on
Tuesday.
Bye
