Sorry I haven't been posting. But my trip has been pretty routine. Not a lot of excitement. But I have a few minutes to share a bit with you. I had thoughts of offing boys and massage palors all over the place when planning this trip, but then my boy from last trip was here and I've been a one boy man. I've only been enjoying his company after sunset. I like my days to hang by the pool or run off to Siam Paragon, MBK Center or Terminal 21 for the lunch food courts. Plus I can also grocery shop. Because my boy speaks very limited English, it's just easier for me to sight see alone. My boy is Vietnamese and yesterday he had to do a Visa Run to Cambodia to get his passport stamped for another 30 days. Hot Male will not allow any illegal boys to work there and the foreign boys have to show their passport every week. I knew he would be tired and hungry when he got back tonight, so I met him at his office(hot male) and we went to Dicks Cafe for dinner. I've been to Dicks a few times this trip and barely a customer, but tonight, barely a seat. Don't know where everyone came from. While sitting there I saw a sign at Xboys . Promotion prices 200 per drink and 300 off fee. Not bad. I understand Bangkok Boys is 400 per drink. When it's quiet, not a lot of people make it to the end of the street, so maybe promo will help. After dinner we came back to the apartment, and he said he wanted to spend the night. He has been up for almost 48 hours so I said ok. I went to take a shower, by the time I came out, the a/c was full blast and he was sound asleep. So here I sit and type. I am a tosser and turner so we will see how long he stays asleep. I have a pull out couch if I get to be to much for him. They drove to Cambodia with no a/c in the car, so I think that is what he really wants. When all the boys start complaining about the heat, you know it is hot. This past week has been mid 90's . I have spent a lot of time on Soi Twilight this trip. Mostly outdoor bars. I saw one show. They are pretty much all the same, just different boys and music. Big cock show, glow in the dark paint show, fucking while upside down on the gym rings show, hot wax show, and the fuck your way through the audience collecting tips show. Sitting outdoors watching everyone walk by, I have seen more hot boys than on any of my previous trips. If I wasn't previously engaged, I would have no problem getting a different boy or 2 every night. Weeknights have been on the quiet side, but the weekends have picked up ok. I've seen it busier, but not to bad. Had a friend of mine from San Francisco stop in Bangkok for a few days while on his way to Puket . We spent last Saturday sightseeing at Wat Po and the Grand Palace area. Very few Western tourist. Almost all Asian. We took the water taxi back. It's always a lot of fun, but was very crowded. I would have felt safer with a few less people. It was a really hot day, and kind of did me in. We went out for dinner at the Smokehouse Restaurant on Surawong . After a couple weeks of rice and vegetables, I really wanted a steak. My friend the same. Bit pricey at $30. But sometime u just gotta do it. I called my boy to meet us. He had a rack of ribs. When he got done, not even a nibble for a dog off those bones. Where do these kids put all that food. They are so small. So stomach full and starting to feel the heat after a long day in the sun, sent the little one on his way and went back to the apt and slept all night and stayed in bed most of Sunday. We're not as young as we used to be. I have one week to go. I told my boy that for Friday I would take him to a Vietnamese Restaurant. I'll have rice, he can have what ever he wants. Then Saturday we are going to the Firehouse Restaurant. I think Oz has been there, but again I am in the mood for Western food. The next few days are going to be on the cheap. Have to start watching the $$. I will be back in Bangkok for a couple weeks again in May on the end of a trip around the world. Then 2 days after I get back to Florida, I am driving to Boston for the month of June. We always say it's nice to get home to our own beds. I'll have been gone from mid Feb to July 4th. I don't even know what my bed looks like. I'm sure I'll come up with something to post about this weekend, but for now, it's time to go cuddle up with the little cutie in my bed.

There hasn't been any postings in this section for a while, so I thought I would give it a shot. I'm starting my 2nd year of retirement and finally have realized I don't have to be home Sunday night to go to work Monday morning. I have been to Thailand several times for 10 days to 2 weeks. I thought I would give a 1 month trip a shot. I found an apt on AIRBNB. Heard good and bad, but this experience has been about perfect. Have a 1 bedroom, fast wi-fi, pool, little gym. I arrived at 1am so stayed in a hotel as I didn't want to go looking for the place and looking for keys at that hour. When I arrived the protests were still happening, so a 10 minute taxi ride here, took 1 hour. The roads are all open now, so just typical heavy Bangkok traffic. I found the Apt easily. The security guard had the key and it was that simple. Location is about 1/2 mile down Suriwong towards the river. I flew from Miami to Chicago on American, then Cathay Pacific to Hong Kong on to Bangkok. All in Business. Great flights. Had the mini Business cabin. It only has 8 seat, and only 3 were taken. Really quiet and great individule service. 30 hours door to door is a long day. I stayed in my first night trying to adjust a little to time change. For some reason hit me hard this trip. Next night I went up to Soi Twilight. I have a couple of friends that work at Hot Male at the outdoor bar, so I hang out there a lot. When I was last in Bangkok, (July) I met a boy that I really liked. He was from Vietnam and I figured would be long gone. Well I show up and as soon as I say hi to my friends, they all said my friend had gone back to Vietnam and just arrived back in Bangkok the same day I arrived and was upstairs working. Well that helped wake me up a bit. I went upstairs and looked around and didn't see him. Went to take a seat, and before I could park my butt, he was right there. I don't understand how these boys remember everything about every person they have met for years. I don't remember dinner yesterday. I didn't off him that night. At 350 baht a drink, we each had one and then I was out of there. The jet lag was still getting to me and sex wasn't high on my list. Drinks at outdoor bar were 150. He has been with me the rest of the week though. I have lived alone for a lot of years, so I don't need him with me 24 hours a day. So we meet up each evening for dinner, drinks and back to apt for a bit of fun. He really hits all my buttons so fun times for me, though probably kind of boring for a lot of you. Not into topping or bottoming anymore, but living alone the thing I miss the most is affection. This boy is amazing in that department. He is all over the place and I know so many of you like kissing...he loves it. He rams his tounge down my throat so much I am usually asking for a time out. Usually when I get here it's off to the massage places for a little fun, but with my boy, I haven't needed to. Next week I'm going to give him a night or 2 off so I can have a little taste of what else may be lurking out there. He also has promised me a 3 way with a friend of his that is arriving from Vietnam next week. When his friend arrives, that will give me an excuse to go off on my own. Weather has been great. 90 each day and 80 each night. Low humidity has been a big plus with a good breeze. Now that I have lived in Ft.Lauderdale for about 2 years, the weather has been much less an issue for me here. Probably the biggest problem I have with my boy is the A/C. He likes it set about 80 and I like it about 70. We comprise, but I'm still to hot when playing around. For those of you that have been here know what a bustling city this is. Right now it's as quiet as I have ever seen it. So many empty taxis and tuk tuks. Drivers are all saying, people are coming to thailand, but not coming to Bangkok. My flight Hong Kong to Bangkok only had 11 people in Business. This is the only trip I have seen empty seats. I had fast trak for emigration . 1 window open, and I was the only person there. It was 1 am, but airport did seem quite. All the intersections are open now and the protesters are staying in Lumpini Park. So safety not really an issue now. An other sign, every time I have been on SkyTrain , I have gotten a seat. Well my date for the evening has just shown up so it's off to Scozzi for dinner. I asked him if he eats only Thai or does he like some western food. He says he likes food any and all. Makes life so much easier. I'm not the best writer and pretty much seeing only one boy, doesn't leave a lot to write about. But I will see what I can come up with. Till then

The first time I met TotallyOz was in Rio during Carnival. While your right lots of boys in town to work, but he took most of them to sit in his box at the Sambadrom.

I just came in from MBK and Silom. No changes there yet. No traffic allowed. Hopefully it changes with Monday rush hour.

The people that fly in First and Business on high fares don't tend to use their miles that often. They buy high, they don't need free tickets or upgrades. I fly 30-40 times a year on lower fares, and now I'm being told that my business, isn't really important to them. I just arrived in Bangkok yesterday. I fly from Miami-Bangkok. Closed to 30 hours of travel. Coach...it isn't going to happen for me.

Thailand is the answer, but you do need at least 10 days. I am leaving for Bangkok next Monday for a month. It cost me about the same as 10 days in Rio.

Another aspect is the club where he was partying. They have gone off the radar today. Padlock doors, no employes have shown up. They have already had their phone lines disconnected. These are big clubs that cater to the stars and now they stand a good chance of loosing their license. Over the last few months, there have been some high profile DUI cases resulting in death in Miami Beach, so this will get a lot a attention as they have been really cracking down on this stuff.

He is being transported to Miami county jail right now. All the Miami tv stations are showing the procession by helicopter live. He is being charged with, no license, resisting arrest, he was high on pot and beer. Open containers in car. Doing 65 in 30 residential street. I wonder how he is enjoying his tour of Miami from the back of a police van.

I couldn't get into it. Found it quite boring.

I admit I like the seasons. But I knew going into retirement, San Francisco was going to be way to expensive. I'm from Boston originally and get back there monthly. Was only 10 degrees when I got off the plane for Thanksgiving. In a couple of weeks I'll be in Anchorage and Fairbanks. Have to believe I will get my cold weather quota then. Last night I was at Swinging Richards and talked to quite a few customers from up north they were loving the warmth. And as I get ready to watch San Francisco play at Green Bay today, have to admit it was nice having coffee and reading the Sunday paper outdoors. Summer can be tough, but I'm lucky enough to travel quite a bit and spend half the time away from So.Fla. (First cold wave of season arriving Tue. 60 for a high).

I just retired to Ft.Lauderdale from San Francisco last year. The cost of living in Miami is nothing compared to SF. But my two biggest surprises when moving here were the crime rate and car insurance rates. Way to many home invasion robberies here. Car insurance rates doubled here. I was paying $900 a year in SF, now paying $1500. a year. But while I am watching the cold and snow around the country this morning, I am sitting in the sun on my balcony and it's 80 degrees.

He said on the GayThailand site yesterday, that he has the flu and will be offline for a few days.

I hope they get things organized soon. (Doubtful) I received my cancellation notice last week. First time in 40 years I have been uninsured.

The high fees are mostly on British. Because of this, everybody is trying to go on American, so their awards are increasingly more difficult to use. Your on the west coast so even more difficult. If you really want to go, you need to be creative. Iberia to Madrid , connect to Lhr. AirBerlin. Finnair thru Helsinki. Long way around, but available.

When talking SE Asia, I think everybody sees the airfare and stops. When you start figuring out how much hotels, food, boys cost, you realize it's not nearly as expensive as you thought it would be. You talk $50.00 for lap dance in Montreal or Fla. Well that same 50 will get you an overnight in Bangkok. Lucky your right about March being hot. But I retired to Ft.Lauderdale a year ago, and I'm getting used to the heat and humidity. I have been to Bangkok 3 times this year and the weather hasn't bothered me as much as in the past. March is the only time I can get a long period of away. I'm staying for 30 days and have rented a condo. Firecat is right, it's a very easy place to go alone. I tend to be on the shy side. But the boys are easier to meet than anywhere I've been before. They have great memories also. You meet them this year and they remember you next year

Your off to a great start. Enjoy your trip. I just finished booking my next Thailand trip, but it's not till March.

I get First Class on Cathay for 130k miles. Miami/Bkk

Lucky, I hope you get to try the Courtyard in Bangkok some time. It's the best Courtyard in the system.

I used Mr.Toom for the first time in January, Pattaya-Bangkok. I was very impressed. As you said, 2 hours, no issues finding hotel, and a friendly driver.

My hotel (Courtyard) had Pizza & Pasta buffet tonight. All you can eat for 650. Includes salads and soft drinks.

And after I left with my boy, there was nobody left. Taxi back to hotel, barely a car on the road. I have never seen Bangkok so quiet.

I'm at LAX now waiting to board my flight to Nrt and on to Bkk . I'll try to pick up the search where you left off.

I got the 1900 baht deal. They had a 72 hour flash sale this past weekend. But it must have gone over well, because it disappeared after 48 hours. I have stayed here twice this year and have been upgraded, so hoping it will happen with this rate when I arrive this week.

I'm glad you are enjoying the hotel. I have stayed there twice already this year, and will be checking in again Wednesday night. I had always stayed at the Tartawan, but the Courtyard is cheaper and offers so much more.

Will you be going to Hero for physical therapy on your legs?
