Location: pattaya, Thailand

ok so we have 2 days left in thailand and we both have made a decision that we are more then happy to leave i am over the heat im over the food as great as it is and im over that little tiny thing here in pattaya the men and women and the in your face sex!
so ill start with bangkok we actually really liked it. It was fast paced easy to get around and lots of nooks and crannies to go look at and with the city come the cars and the ppl which was all good
in bangkok we only stayed for 3 nights in a really nice hotel thanks sta travel for finding it for us and we went on a river kwai tour for all of u out there kinda like me and had no idea what it was ( i know shame on me) but it where the japs had prisioners kept here in thailand and they came from america europe and of coarse aus. long story they were made to make a railway and a bridge over the river kwai got treated reallllly badly and ate nothign but rice for like yrs many of them dieing :(
it was sad to look and learn
that tour also took us to the floating markets this was great we got to see how the last remaining market goes on and works luved it the produce the nik naks the craft we managed to get out of it only buying fruit and some spring rolls and the sneaky buggers somone took a pic of us in a boat on the way to the markets and when we got on the bus there was a picture of us on a plate for 150 bht we could take it home i was so cheesed off and have since realised it they do it all the time on these foreign tours
i should really talk about the food here WIKED if i had more balls i would eat of the streer venders because that stuff smells so good
but the simplicity and efficentness of thai food i just love it but so too i think when i leave thailand i bid to eat more vegies and salad because it really doesnt happen here and im starting to get sick of oil and the frying of it all.
so next blog will be koh samui and pattaya
