Pattaya Day 1

Touch down to BKK Suvarnabhumi International Airport on Sunday and was pick up by my hotel's limousine. Not the Mercs Benz type of course as my client wasn't going to pay such lavish expenses by me for such a small job. Yes am in Pattaya for a surveyor witness of loading of some expensive, yet tiny cargo.

Road trip to Pattaya was 1hrs 30mins. Luckily the driver, Mr Nutt (lol maybe he need more nuts) was friendly and was pretty fluent in English and we had a nice chat over the 2 1/2 hrs ride.

-----------------------------------------

Well, much is forgotten after an almost 2 weeks break, guess i will try to recall them back...

Well, first of all i was shock by the size of the hotel room for me! There is one huge KING size bed, and there is another smaller room with a single bed! I wonder if it is because the staff was excepting someone else to sleep over. lol. Then again, there is no need for another bed ma. keke.

But nevertheless i tried to change a room, coz my view was a old back alley of another street whereas the other side was the view of the fantastic beach!?! Too bad there wasnt any and they mentioned thats y they compensate with this huge room. Sigh... so big for wat?!? Machiam i can rooll here till there...


Huge shower room, but funny they dun have shower curtain on the bathtub, but then, there is another "rain" shower on the other side. lol


The smaller room on the other side. Dun play play hor! Its bigger then some bedroom and got a 26" LCD TV hor!


This is the view linking the main bedroom and the smaller room. Funny they only have a 29CRT TV here. Mmmm...


Behold! the KING SIZE bed. Wahahaha! I roll, i roll, i roll... Haben fall off the bed. lol

Well, beside the room... There is the ROOM SERVICE!?! lol


Well, I jus ordered one set of drum lets as appetizer, followed by Tom Yam soup and Fried rice as main course served together with a refreshing glass of watermelon juice. Ahh...~


The Tom Yam soup was EXCELLENT! I wonder y thai alway make the best tomyam soup. That is, regardless of whereever u are! Then again... They originated tomyam soup. lol
Its sour, spicy, tasty, delicious, juicy, creamy, meaty, full of seafood and YUMMY!!!
Need me to say more?!?


The chicken drum lets were a bit let down. I tot they will serve boneless type with stuffings. (Think i had too much Simply Thai in Singapore. lol)


The fried rice was.... Mmm cant remember le. Nice? i think so. lol

Jus before the day got darker, i decided to take a walk to the famous "walking street". One of my colleague was telling me how great the place is, and now i understand why... Turns out it was the most boring part of my trip in pattaya. Coz the "walking street" is actually pretty much a "wh**e street" Please pardon my explict language here but it is really true. Throughout the streets, u see bars and pub and standing outside u wil see many girls trying to lure u in. Most of the time is jus for a few drinks i would have guess, but to think that some might have "evil" tot, i better think twice before going in. lol


It was close to 6pm when i left the hotel and i managed to take a slow walk along the beach. If u look closely, there is a big "PATTAYA CITY" on the back, you can see it later when i reach there at night.


This is the various sun shade along the beach, apparantly you could lie under the shade and people will come and serve you drinks. I seems that the beers are cheap but then, what is there to do when u are alone... U can swim coz ur stuffs will be wet and there will not be another people to look after your things. But notice there is a new Holiday Inn hotel at the backdrop. Due to open end of this year. Seems that the view will be fantastic!


Finally reach the end of the walking street and this was the "PATTAYA CITY" word i was talking about before.


On the way back i saw this guy with this HUGE dog! I think if he stand on two legs, he will be taller then the master!

Well, after the long walk up and down, it took me 1hr to walk to the "walking street" ans another 1hr to walk to the end of it. I reach back my hotel almost close to midnight and hence i didnt eat and fell asleep...

Work on the next day~
