I love the bars and nightlife of Pattaya but every now and then I like to get away from it. My preferred destination has always been the mountain at the top of Pratamnak. Sometimes it's busy and sometimes it's quiet but there's always someone there. The view is breathtaking. It is the place that Thai boys like to take their girlfriends. I usually stay there for about an hour, just to recharge my batteries and then it's back to the carousing.
The last time I went there it was different.
There was a group of people drinking neat spirit from the bottle. I had never seen any alcohol there before.
Were they threatening, abusive, causing trouble? no, not at all. But they were loud, everything was hysterically funny and they did spoil the place. It did feel as if somewhere really special had been taken away from me. I hope I can get it back next visit but I suspect it has gone forever.
