I was supposed to visit the LOS in October of 2002 but took a new job and didn't make the trip. I have been reading this forum and the old one since 2001. I watched from afar as the old board was in trouble during the last days and wondered if my connection to Pattaya would be lost. I always look at the different websites concerning Pattaya and wondered if I would ever make the trip. I finally made the journey leaving America on the 22nd of March.
I spent my first few days in Bangkok and did not go to a bar at all just His Massage on Silom Road which in my mind was a nice place. I just did my own thing and took a few tours. I had arranged to go to Pattaya on Saturday for two nights and left Bangkok on Saturday morning. I arrived as grreen as a pickle not knowing anything but just the information I had read. I stayed at the Cafe LeRoyal as I just wanting to get my feet wet and and someplce I felt safe with, so if I needed direction I had some. The hotel was very nice and staff pleasant and helpful. I discovered what the Baht Bus was all about after I paid 100 Baht to go to Jotieum Beach. LOL The learning curve was fun. The Pattaya Music Festival was going on, I didn't go just heard about it.
Saturday night I went to Throb and since I haven't seen the show it was good, I had several drinks so I didn't venture off of the Soi. It was almost midnight went I left Throb and feeling alright after my drinks when I entered Funny Boyz. I knew about the "off process" from my reading not was not sure about this. I am no saint and have partaken in such in other countries around the world. The snake was getting ready as I sat there and ordered my drink. Two little rattlers jumped up and was at myside, a customer had enterted so all the guys to the stage. The two rattlers were batering for my attention while I sat. I waited for everyone to make the full circle before I made my choice. There was a slender tall guy who was shy and only made eye contact once. I knew that it was going to be him, he came and sat. He knew hardly no English and I knew no Thai but eye contact and sign language made it work. We left.
He had been offed only four times and had only been working for 4 months. I decided to finish my holiday with him. I had to return to Bangkok Monday morning and so left Pattaya to return to the Holiday Inn Silom. I know that I have gone there and now must deal with all the personal issues but I am at peace with myself.
A little about myself since I am a newbie. I am 41 single male in the Southeast of AMerica. I work all the time and only take time off about 4 days a month. I have been 2 long term relationships in my life. Now since I have been to Pattaya I can see a trip every six months.
The only thing I do not like is the attitude of Customs when reentering the US. I know what the perception is all about and I guess it is something to accept. I just wonder how it will be if I start making a trip twice a year.
I know there are gaps in my post or not much flow but just wanted to express myself. I am open for the on slaught of review LOL. By the way did I mention he called and woke me up t 0130 AM this morning........................................... ......................................
