On our way from Bangkok to Pattaya, we stop by a diamond center. The tour starts off with a cheesy video which is in Vietnamese, so I just look at the pretty rocks on the screen. Then we head to the showroom, which is like Zales on crack. The best part are the dozens of sales ladies who pick their mark as soon as they enter the room. Amanda and I had a lady tailing us the whole time we were there, eager to
Back on the road, it takes 2 hours to reach Pattaya. We check into the second worst hotel I have ever seen (the first being in Saigon from 2004). The foul odor from the hallway luckily did not extend into the room, though the dingy carpet did. Amanda and I would end up sleeping like a 60's sitcom couple: in two twin beds.
After dinner we all had a choice of which "sex shows" we wanted to visit. There was a selection of four different shows, and you could see any or all of them. Amanda and I both decided to watch just one show, since I had seen this stuff before, and she didn't really need 4 hours worth of freakiness. My friends took the three show package.
The show itself was run-of-the-mill Thai sex show. It had the usual pulling of razor blades out the vag, inserting and ejecting live goldfish from the vag, playing horns with the vag, writing notes with the vag...As a matter of fact, everything involved the vag. The highlight of the show for me (as it was last time) was the live hummingbird on a string. Man, that thing looks pissed.
When my friends left to go to the other shows, Amanda and I hit the local night market, then called it a night. When my friends came back, they convinced me to head out to Walking Street, which is the essence of Pattaya. This is where all the beer bars, go-go bars, hookers, and tourists are concentrated. I tried to take as many pictures as I could of old white men and young Thai hookers. It's tough to take night shots with a point-and-shoot, but I got some good results.
