The Greatest Trip Ever... Continued

Well we caught our Air Asia flight over to Thailand, all of a 10 minute flight when you take in the time change... anyway we arrived to find our hostel was no where to be found... After walking up and down for 30 mins (good thing I bought a fake NorthFace backpack for 15 bucks) we finally found it and were glad to be in Thailand...It was night time, and we were ready to experience Thailand, and Patong Beach for that matter. The magic that greeted us was and endless street of neon signs, bars, clubs, and the infamous "Lady Boys" of Thailand. After a night of exploring we called it quits, and I went to sleep ready for the beach...

From the photo on the right...a Lady boy in action. But hey at least the bars in Thailand aren't trying to lie or anything. "Maybe 20 gorgeous girls, a lot of ugly girls, plus a few fat ones!" They tell it how it is...

The next day was all about relaxing after our two days of traveling to get there. We relaxed under the endless supply of beach chairs and umbrellas, there were conveniently shifted by our attendees to block out the intense southeast asian sun. The water was warm... almost too warm. It felt like i was taking a bath in one ginormous bath tub. Well after a day at the beach we decided to take advantage of the happy hours... well more like happy days (happy hours that last from 10am till 8 pm).

Our next and last day in Patong Beach was to be filled with ATV riding, Elephant Trekking, and a Monkey and Snake show. All were fun, and all felt quintessentially Thai. Next on our makeshift Thailand extravaganza itinerary was Railay, Thailand. A beach town that is only accessible by the famous Thailand long tail boats...
