Introduction to Thailand

Landed in Bangkok ??? Airport 6am, Its was nice temperature inside the airport so didn't think it was so hot down here,

took a few minutes to find my way thru the passport check and then waiting to get my luggage,

when i came out there was a few booths with Coffee, Taxi offers and so forth.

I walked around a few minutes and bought a SIM card for phone.. found the nearest exit,

when i came outside.. Wow... 6:30am or so... it was smoking hot, I hurried and walk to the nearest Taxi and asked to go to Jomtien,

Was told i could get there for under 1,500 Baht, yet i was so shocked, scared or something about being in Thailand

and all alone.. So took the first and best one to Jomtien... ended up costing me 2,500 Baht :/



The taxi had air-con on, much more than they had on the airplane, I was pretty much freezing but didn't say anything..

two hours drive, looking out the window at Huge advertisement signs on the way out of Bangkok..

Pattaya

Even tho i told taxi driver to drop me off at Jomtien Soi 7, i apparently was dropped off at Pattaya Soi 7.

( Looking back, wish i knew about Soi 6 that day *dirty grin* )

I waited at beach until 9am and called my new boss that was going to pick me up, and as i taught i was Jomtien soi 7, he went there looking for me but couldn't find *gg*

Finally we found out I was in Pattaya so he came there and picked me up.
