My trip in Pictures

Recommended Posts

Onward to Phuket.  I met up with a guy from Planet romeo and he drove me around Phuket to all the different beaches.  I had no idea just how beautiful some of the beaches were.

 

One beach we drove to had a very nice stainless steel gym near the road.  I wonder how hot that metal gets in the hot sun?

Below is a large buddah they are building at the top of a mountain on the island of Phuket.  The figure is so large that it is often hiddend by either fog or clouds.

On the plane from Phuket to Chiang Mai.  This is a pic of the snack they provided.

When I was walking to the beach I came to a stop when I thought I saw Neal's scooter.

Then there was the food.  I love the fish at BonChon so I included the pic!

We don't have this on the menu in the USA so I had to snap a pic.

very interesting photo-story, different from our usual boy-infused narratives.

 

I don't take any offence for you considering me stupid but on last day in Thailand which is usually long one since I fly out past midnight food is probably last thing coming to my mind.

Great report!!!! Pictures as part of a report really do make a difference, thanks.

Ha I too have stopped in my tracks before and had to take a good second look when I came up upon that very same "Neals Scooter" situation as it is parked in almost exactly the same position as where he always left his heavy duty machine.

 

Thankfully I did see someone else driving off on it later on so no, definitely not his nor him returning to haunt and harass the lady owner of "his" beach concession ( or so he seemed to think merely as he'd sponsored the wifi there for a while). That is until the lady owner there well and truly handed him his ass in a sling one day over him being just a bit too bossy for her liking and quickly put him in his place and put him right on that score once and for all from what I remember  - leading to him then throwing a tantrum, moving sections and calling her for everything for weeks thereafter I seem to recall - much to the delight of a few of her other regulars who later posted same I recall :-)

 

Nice pics too - although ( through no fault of yours or your pics) they more sort of reminded me of just what I'm "not" missing there just now perhaps, which is kind of sad as of late to me same same ( which used to bring a smile to my face is now "actually" just more a case of absolutely same same now perhaps and not in a good way :-(

 

But thanks for taking the time to post for us all anyway - including your very own selfie no less ! Wow, aren't we getting the brave boy who obviously doesn't give a shit who sees or knows you there or not, good for you ! :)

Very nice pics :)

 

How much did you have to pay for the Uber between Bangkok and Pattaya ?

 

It ran me 1,310 baht.  When I tried to hire a taxi from the stand, the driver refused to use the meter and demanded 1500 baht.  His taxi was old and I didn't mind telling him no and having him remove my bags from the trunk.  I then fired up my uber app and saw the uber was cheaper and there were many cars at the airport.

thanks bucknaway for the nice photos

 

btw the 7-11 on the corner was re-opened middle of November, so i think the photos were made earlier?

I took the pictures when I was there in October and you say the store re-opened in November?  Damn those Cambodian workers work fast!

Great photo story.  I love looking at pictures and it really does give the viewer a chance to see things from your eyes. And, it also tells a great story.

 

I love PJ's Place.  I have stayed there several times over the years and find the owners charming.  How as the cooking school?
