Pattaya & Hat Jomtein

THAILAND | Tuesday, 11 November 2008 | Views [397]

Headed from Bangkok's eastern bus terminal down to Pattaya to catch some rays until Scott comes out, took about three hours, but instead of taking me to the bus terminal i was dumped by the side of the road with a couple of Korean guys.  So i had to guess which way the the main stretch of beach was..,about 30 to 40 mins later i finally foudn where i was meant to be.  I if anyone has been to Thailand then this place is like the Kho san raod but instead of food stalls they have massage parlours all offering a "good" massage with a happy ending.  So ended up staying one night in the main pattaya area and then got on a sangthaew (a pick up truck with two benches in the back)and headed a couple of kilometers down the road to find a less skanky place.  I managed to find a great little guest house to stay in with its own bathroom and a/c for about 400baht so i was well happy with that.

So the next day i got up to head to the beach and then the thunder and a lightning started and didn't stop.  The next day i had a walk about and noticed that i was probably the only english speaking person about, the rest were dutch or german families.

When i decied to leave i obviously didn't know where the bus station was becuase my bus didn't actually take me to it ym travel book needs to get some god dam scale to it.  I caught another sangthaew to as close to where i thought the bus station was then i had to walk and waht i though was going to take me 5 or ten minuts took me about an hour, so i thought i was lost.  So i had to get on the back of a moped taxi, it must have been prettty funny to watch...i towerd over this little Thai driver and then i had my big backpack, if i fell off there was no getting up again.

Anyway i'm back in Bangkok now.
