Interesting pics. Cheers Pat.
If going down that side by train, I always recommend going down to Ban Grood (Ban Krut) บ้านกรูด
There's a good fully aircon and semi-proper train that leave Hualamphong around 8am and arrives around 1pm.
The return leaves บ้านกรูด at around 3pm.
Ban Krut Resort is nice, cheap too, under 2k a night iirc.
Will stick up pics or do trip report later if I think of it.
No booze or fags, sounds pretty homophobic. How about ladyboys? I guess if one trains oneself they can tell just by looking, no?:alcoholic:
..."gets on the train" is closer to actual usage...Quote:

Oops..
Cats can be quite selective sometimes, you'd think the strays would be grateful for the attention without slashing every human hand that offers affection.

But this is a con. I had two bits of dead skin they ignored. Feels just ticklish.

You should have a read up on those feet eating fish spas, you won't go for one again.
I didn't think anyone had for the last 15 years.
Venice in the Philippines
https://teakdoor.com/attachment.php?a...tid=8169&stc=1
^ Went past that Venezia place near Hua Hin earlier, apparently a theme park style mock up of Venice. Decided against going in after reading the reviews. And they've spoiled it by charging 180 baht for farangs and free for Thais. Tourist numbers are down and the place is neglected, tired looking, half the rides are closed, and food is well overpriced. The management probably haven't got the brains to work out how to attract more punters.
Oh well. Their loss.
Fook...Why not go to Venice instead?...Heh...
I walk to the PH Venice from where I live. There is no entrance fee. It's just a mall with a gimmick to attract more customers.Quote:

Thankfully, lol. I hate the feeling of those fish spas.Quote:

It's on my bucket list, and I'd probably need to take a few as well.Quote:

...unfortunately inaccurate...the relatively new anti-flood barriers in the lagoon keep the piazza (reasonably) dry for much of the year...and while it's true that Venice has essentially become a tourist trap, at least it's an authentic historical site...Quote:

St Marks square does flood but not that often and certainly not every day. They had the boards up ready in October but no problems during my visit over Halloween.
