3 weeks in Thailand

There is a new thread on Phuket that you should look at as well.

The best beaches with a gay community are in Phuket.

If you want to consider flights from Phuket to Pattaya

Thanks for all the suggestions everyone :cheers:

If anyone else has any other recommendations or answers to my other questions, please post

I agree, there is more to Thailand than booze and go go bars, try a trip to Ayutthya and come back to Bangkok by boat. Worth every dollar. The ruins are magnificent which is more than I can say about the old ruins you will see in Pattaya. (Blasphemy indeed, boygeenyus!)
Expanding one's knowledge of foreign lands is a privelidge and should be a pleasure to all lucky enough to do so. Enjoy your time in Thailand, see more than the seedy side and meet some wonderful people, I have and wouldn't trade it for anything.
