OK, how about some more photos? Eve and I decided to go to the beach on Saturday, and this town called Pattaya was the closest to Bangkok. It also serves as a huge tourist trap with a 'Ripley's Believe it or Not,' plenty of beach space, and a dirty nightlife area. We ended up visiting all of these things. Pattaya seems like generally a nice place, but as I mentioned, a big part of it is dirty go-go bars and sex workers. Let's just say there are tons of gross old men wandering the streets, and the primary street is called 'walking street.' Actually there is a popular t-shirt there that says "Good boys go to Heaven, bad boys go to Pattaya," so that pretty much sums it up.
Eve on a beach in Pattaya. Really beautiful beach except for all of the junk on it (jet skis, tents, garbage).
This guy is payed to sit in a box at Ripley's haunted house and look scary. I tried to get him to smile but he's very good at his job.
The world's biggest tire or something like that.
We took in a show called Tiffany's which featured songs and dance from many countries around the word. Afterwards all of the girls were outside where you can get your photo taken with them.
Someone posing for a photo with two dancers. The required tip to a dancer was 40 baht.
Eve with one of the dancers. I swear this girl had so much plastic surgery that she now looks like a gecko.
Later we went to check out walking street. They at least had very good ice cream there.
We stopped and got this caricature done and the guy did a really good job for 150 baht. In this scene, Eve is rescuing me as I am lost and confused in Bangkok. A small dog witnesses.
