Weekends. Bangkok vs Pattaya

[bucknaway]

In an attempt to maximize the fun factor of my vacation, I am trying to decide which area would provide the most fun during my holiday in Thailand.

Below is a list of my thoughts as related to the city and what I see myself indulging in based on past experiences.

Bangkok Weekend:

Friday:

- Pantip Plaza Computer and I.T. Shopping
- Babylon will be crowded with guys looking for fun.
- Meeting guys from Adam4Adam
- Soi Twilight will be packed and alive with a happy crowd and the bars will be putting on their best show.
- Soi 4 will be packed with Thai's and vacationers alike and always makes for a fun time. Last time I spent my time in Telephone Pub, this time I may call Balcony my home.
- Patpong! Love the excitement of the place.
- Meeting guys from Gaydar
- DJ Station!!!! The crowds! The Guys! The music, The Guys! The Fun! The Guys! I just love the Guys!
- Silom, the shopping along the streets and the guys! It's also where I buy underwear and club clothes.

I think you are overly excited. I gave up planning long time ago, as reality will usually be different from my plans. This sound's like a child's (unrealistic) wishlist for Christmas. Do one third of it and you will be fine.

I would plan 1 hour for each of the points on your list, plus some time for travelling, anyway, I think you don't get further than point 3 before something unexpected happens and changes your further plans completely.

That is not saying what I will do, it is basically a list of what I have done on my weekends and for the most part I expect my future weekends to be the same.

I was trying to decide on where to spend my weekends and it seems that Bangkok has won out.

It appears you like shopping a lot.

I just spent an hour shopping at an over-crowed mall in Chicago for my LOS trip (next week) and 59 of those minutes felt waisted. I hate shopping.

One of the things I like about LOS is that a pair of cargo shorts... a T shirt and sandels does the job. At night I toss on a long pair of cargo's or jeans and that works as well. Social networking on the internet is also off the list. Computers and the rest of those push-button space-aged gizmos are off the list. I don't like shows (not any of them) so they are off the list. I guess that leaves me with no list.

A perfect day for me is just kicking back with a cold Singha and bag of potatoe chips......listening to Steely Dan's Asia CD for the quad-trillionth time...and enjoying his company...whoever he happens to be. My legendary backpack is always within reach and a side-trip always seems to evolve, but nothong carved in bedrock.

That is an amazingly packed schedule for a holiday, Bucknawy. I usually prefer to laze about for as long as I can in Pattaya first, and then spend the last two days or so of my holiday hitting the bars and shopping in BKK...but just ONE shopping mall a day at most or Chatuchak, but never more than that. It's just too tiring for someone of my age and girth! :snorting:
