As much as I like American Football, a Rugby player would win in a fight. Just because the NFL football players are bigger and stronger, doesn't make them better fighters, IMHO. cheers kj

Greg's Kitchen on Second Road has great food. If you walk to the end of Soi 6 and turn right on Second Road, cross the street and it is about a 5 minute walk. It is just past the Bank and on the same side of the street. Delicous food, I highly recommend the place. cheers kj

Awesome Post that was some funny shit. cheers kj

This is a Stupid Post, Who gives a shit what kind of plane it is? As long as the plane doesn't crash on the way to my destination, it is a good plane. cheers kj

That was some funny shit.

I have flown this Airline on a few occasions on my recent 3 month stay in PI. Very good airline and they claim to have the newest fleet in Asia after purchasing some new airbuses. http://www.cebupacificair.com/index.html

Monkeyman, Outstanding report as always, very entertaining and great pics. That is some funny shit. thanks for sharing and looking forward to future TR's. cheers kj

Fuck yes, call the police, these guys can be complete assholes. I had trouble with a Bahtbus driver when i was in Pattaya in late June - early July. I was at Guido's birthday party at Hammer's bar recently and I get talking to a guy who was staying at a condo near ours in Jomtien. We agreed to split the cost of a Bahtbus to Jomtien which was 100 baht. All was Ok, our new friend got off at his Condo, paid the 100 baht and the bahtbus drove us to the condo that i was renting. When the Bahtbus stopped they wanted another 100 baht, I said "i'm not paying that". They try and talk Thai t

I've flown Eva 15 times and never had a problem with extra luggage. I usually fill my Hockey Bag that weighs a shitload and they have never charged me extra. Eva air is the best airline I have ever flown and one of the best companies I have ever done business with, they are very professional and they go out of their way to satisfy the customer. IMHO The airline to be careful with is Philippine Airlines (PAL), I recently flown from Manila to Cagayan and they said my luggage was 65 kilos over, and that was for 2 people. I was moving out of my Manila apartment and going to Cagayan De Oro

I stayed there 9 days in September, it is a very nice place but i will never stay there again. I was originally staying there 11 days but i changed my reservation to 9 days and in their late email they said it was not a problem. When it was time to pay, the woman tried to charge me for 10 days, she was convinced I was there 10 nights, i had to get my passport to show her my arrival date. With an exception of the Boss, some of the staff seemed ok, the rest of them spoke no english. It's a nice place but i won't be staying there again, i don't like paying for bad service.

Vanhalen, Hello and welcome to the board. That sounds like a plan, go for it when you feel ready. I hope to do the same thing in about 6 1/2 years but i'd still want a house in the states, i couldn't live in LOS 365 days a year, i'd go nutts. Chok dee to you. cheers kj

I arrive into BKK on the 6th of Septmber at 1100am, i'll be in BKK 1 night and then i caught the PAL flight to Manila on the 7th. I'll stay in AC 5 nights and then come back to LOS and stay in Pattaya until the 27th (maybe 29th). I might take a side trip to Koh Kong Cambodia but not 100% sure, sounds like alot of fun. See you soon. kj

After reading alot of great posts by "Onmyway" about AC Phillipines, i decided to check PAL's website (phillipine airlines) and found a roundtrip ticket for 10,500 baht including tax ($260 US), not a bad deal so i booked it. PAL is having a special from BKK - Manila - BKK. Ironically Manila-BKK-Manila was about 16000 baht ($400). http://www.philippineairlines.com/ Just click "Fares and promos" and then click "Online sales" and then click "special web fares". The same BKK - Manila - BKK flight is $440 on Expedia. I think normally it is alot cheaper to book the ticket thru a LO

You are correct, it should of been 1pm because we left Joy bar at about 1220 and it took about 30 minutes to get to the Pier. Refer to part 10 of my LOS-TR. I'm a dice dealer, anything over 12 we have trouble with. See what happens when i post sober? Thanks for pointing that out. cheers kj

Yes I am almost positive, even if I had a few beers in me. I was at Joy bar at 1200 waiting for my buddy Vicvegas who was thinking about joining us but was very sick. We waited about 20 minutes and then started heading down to the pier. I remember Songkran was supposed to start at 1300 (1pm) so we wanted to head to the pier before the water started (we still got a little wet). By the time we got to the Pier after that long walk down Walking street, it was about 1250pm and we waited on the boat a few minutes before it left. Next time I am going to try for the 1200 ferry ride, i

Not to worry there is one at 1300 (1pm) also. some of the bahtbuses go down Walking street during the day so if you can, try to take bahtbus. Walking street is a long long walk. cheers kj

I would but moving sucks. Next trip I might use 2 different hotels but I since I am going to be there for 3 weeks again, i have to be thrifty and save my baht for other things. 3 1/2 months and counting... cheers kj

That is some funny shit. I stayed there in March-April and he/she checked me in, it was funny as hell. I remember checking in I asked he/she "it ok i bring Pooying back"? he/she said "ok no problem thir". I thought it was funny as hell. Sorry to hear you guys did not like Baybreeze, i stayed there and was pleased, for 600 baht with a nice view of the sea it is pound for pound the best value in Pattaya. cheers kj View from my room

I finally went to Koh Larn for the first time on my last trip to LOS, had a great time. It was a nice daytrip getaway. You can hire a speedboat on beachroad and it will cost about 1600 baht and IMHO a waste of Baht. Or you can take the Ferry ride for 20 baht each way which is what we did, 80 baht roundtrip for me and my barfine. Go to the very end of Walking street to the Pier, during the day there are some bahtbuses that go to the Pier. We took the 1300 (1pm) Definitely the 1300 boat to the Island and took the 1800 (6pm) back to Pattaya. On the Island there are some bahtbus t

Nice hotel, my kind of place, they have Tiger Beer. BTW how was the happy pizza? cheers kj

I just used "MR T taxi service" a few weeks ago and was very satisfied, i'll use him again. I paid 800 baht plus tolls and was driven in a brand new Toyota Corolla. Anyone interested the number is 038-720318, i called from my house here is Vegas before i left and the driver was waiting for me in the arrival hall. cheers kj

Very sad news, i feel for her family and friends. She will be well missed. cheers kj

Good call except OSU is going to have trouble beating Arizona. I think Louisville looked great tonight beating the top seed. I knew Washington was overeated. I think North Carolina is going to win it all. Vermont will win it Next year they are my new team. cheers kj

Aldprt, Here is the number: 038-720318 They were very nice and helpful when i called them. chok dee kj
