Thailand !

Short post about my trip to Thailand, where I visited a friend of mine I haven't seen in a long time. 
I've done the tourist stuff already during a previous trip, so I haven't traveled much while there this time, the plan was to stay with my friend & his girlfriend and enjoy amazing food and good parties :-)

First stop, Bangkok. I arrived in the evening, we went to a bar in the center for drinks and long talks.

Then we went to Hua Hin, 2 hours from Bangkok, a vacation place where Thai people go ( translation : Quiet, non-touristic and nice place ) we enjoyed relaxing times at the beach and wonderful food in the evening.

Mwahahaha this "jump picture" fails so much I had to put it :-)

Damien taught me how to play pool (like most of the stuff in Thailand, it's super cheap to play over there) , and gave me many useful tips. Thanks again man !

My friends are great food amateurs, so they dragged me into various places for some food tasting. Lucky me ! 

Food :
First evening we had delicious ribs ( with beer of course ).
Second evening we went to "La mer" ( not French despite the name ) where we had super good sea food.

At one of Hua Hin very original market (pictured below ), I had the best Padthai ( national meal ) I've ever had in Thailand.

My friends Damien & Tukatatt

lol when I see this horror I'm curious about the tatoos "kitty tatoos" makes.

 

After that, we went to Pattaya where Damien works part of the time. I enjoyed the beach for a few days, hitting the powerful jet-skis with him ( causing Damien some stomach discomfort :-) ) and drinking smoothies.

My hotel :

... I wish. The place was like an amusement park, with a river like in the aquatic parks  and mutiple pools

The nightlife in Pattaya is best described by this picture I took over there :

The place is basically like the red district in Amsterdam or Pigalle in Paris, just much bigger. The place deserve its reputation, I really wouldn't recommend it for a romantic excursion (even for the beach side ) , there are much better places in Thailand for that. 

This is the main street, next to the harbour :

Food -
Italian restaurant, with a plate of parma ham and cold meat, and pizza (with a good wine of course )
Belgian restaurant, x2, Where we had delicous steak with belgian beers

After that, i went back to bangkok for the weekend, for much party and more eating ( including a really, really good one that cost something like 25 euros ! ) .
We played pool, went karting ( and caused some havoc on the race :-) ) etc
We hit several clubs, although I can't remember the names. On sunday I came back at 9AM :-)

Seen in a bar's toilets :

lol

I took a plane later on and got super sick in Tokyo airport because of the plane food , a horrible mushrooms pancake. Quoting a friend : "Dude, mushrooms pancake ? What were you thinking ?" I don't know Anton, I wasn't thinking I guess :-)
The picture above is very appropriate for this too.

Note : Some pictures are missing, I'm still waiting for them.
