Aftermath....

Back from my trip. A much needed one but not a very good one.


Firstly, the hotel in Pattaya can be better. It was old and dirty. R and I got bitten by bed bugs. Arghh.. The service and breakfast of the hotel was horrible. The counter and conciege people were fierce and terrible!!!! Extremely poor service!!! A definite no-no for people planning the trip. And the name of the wonderful hotel: Beverly Plaza Hotel. And to make things worse, the counter staff actually scold their customers! So my advice: Stay at your own risk!

Next comes our very own budget carrier and terminal. I know what we pay is what we get but basic neccesities will still be very much appreciated. From the plane back to the immigration hall, it would be good if luggage trolleys are provided. Especially if the plane was parked at the very end of the hall.

From my understanding, air and items insurance premium undertaken by the airlines would be partly paid by us under the airport taxes, fuel and insurance. And this amount paid to TR is not cheap and comparable to that of a normal carrier. Yet when the handle of one of our luggages was completely torn off, TR brushed us aside saying that they don't cover damages to handles!!! Wow... Now I know...

And not to mention I got sick on the 2nd last day of the trip... Bleah...

But we had our fair share of fun. At Pattaya, we went for the famous Alcasa Show. Plainly put, lady-boy show. It was really good! And the leads were all really very beautiful. The costumes and sets were very impressive.

Coral island was fun! The water was clear and cool. We had tons of fun with para-sailing and banana boating.

The walking street was also very interesting with all the pubs and discos. It's really interesting.

We went for massage sessions at this lavish place 'Health Land' almost everyday. And not forgetting our dear shop at Silom for foot massage.

Now is time for me to start planning our next trip!!!!!!!
