Saw that drive by last night.  Wondering if it cleared all the potholes with that low clearance.

Quite choppy and an amount of sand erosion.  

The Kite Festival starts today.

Good..... although I spotted Bangkok plate cars parking near the Klang/3rd corner illegally without concern...there is a very popular restaurant on the South side.

There will be a music concert this coming weekend on the beach, with associated road closures.

This boat became a challenge to take a decent photograph of it.  The objective still not achieved.

The ones being thrown are the empty ones.

Motor cycle taxi guide prices listed at Central Festival.

I was out the other night when my lad coincidentally called while he was in Las Vegas (really) I was sat here so couldn’t resist sending him a picture of our or one of our Las Vegas options. I know which one I prefer 😊

Minor Motor Show at Terminal 21.

Good pics.

I got a ride in an ICE MG taxi last year during my visit, and was pretty impressed with the ride, and the fit and finish.

I was in a BYD SUV a few weeks back and agreed.  Fit and finish good.  Only question I would have is longevity and reliability.  Probably also good but don't know.

Did not care for the seat position in the MG pickup.  Back seat not comfortable.

Less of a consideration for a pickup than an SUV or a car I should think.  While I share your uncertainty about the overall quality, the Chinese seem to have cracked the code for making decent-looking cars anyway.

Arrived yesterday afternoon.  Took a walk this morning.  Some new shops opening at the bottom of Naklua Road, near Terminal 21.  Good to have an almost clear view along the beach towards Bali High.  One of the new electric baht buses and a massage lady who wanted to pose for me.

I can't male my mind up about that 'Space' building. Is it futuristic and attractive, or an eyesore?

Investment has certainly come to town since post Covid.

I noticed at the end of my previous trip that the police were more vigorously enforcing parking.  If this continues I think it will improve the traffic flow.  This image taken this afternoon around 1500.
