PART ONE
Well my friends I had another great time on my trip to Thailand. I am just going to summarize because if I don’t I’ll get a yellow card from one of the mods for too long of a journal lol.
I know that I will forget some people, places and things, but I blame others for keeping me on a fairly continuous drunk spree LOL
My first adventure was a trip to Ayuttaya with Anisa and her family. Ayuttaya was the old capital of Thailand I believe and it really is a beautiful place full of culture. I recommend going there to anyone. We saw some old gorgeous temples and did a lot of merit making also. We rented a van for the day and it was well worth it.
I got to ride an elephant for the first time and feed them also. I have to admit that I was a bit intimidated by their size. Even the baby elephants had me a bit nervous lol. I really loved this part of the trip and had such a good time.
We bought some kind of balloon design thing from a woman about 80 or 90 years old. She asked Anisa in Thai if she could come home with me…good to see that I still have what it takes to get a date lol
The niece of the king was to appear at the waterfront and there was a big celebration and festival for her appearance. There were all kinds of food and folly going on all over the place. After walking around for a while we went to a big field there to wait for the king’s niece to appear and to do the loi kratong in the water. Unfortunately it started to rain and we and many others left to other waterfronts.
We came across a waterway somewhere and lit the kroitong wreaths and set them free into the water. We also bought some fish and frogs in order to set them free into the water as well. This was all good fun and a great experience for me. I want to thank Anisa and her family for allowing me to join in this festive time!!
Anisa, Ralf and me went on a 2-day trip to Pattaya. I have heard many stories about numerous amounts of bargirls and clubs in this town. I did see a lot of clubs and entertainment, but also some other things too. They have a long beach there where you can jet ski or be pulled along by a boat or even be pulled into the air with a parachute…looked like fun to me lol You can relax on the beach and have food and drinks and just enjoy the scenery.
We saw a lot of stores on “walking street”, although this is an area that also has a lot of the entertainment scene too. I think Pattaya was a pretty cool place that had some nice people also.
Unfortunately, we didn’t have time to get to Samet, but maybe next time. I also want to try to get to Phuket if possible next time, let’s see.
KITTY AND JAY’S WEDDING
Many people know me as someone who loves to give the love. Once in a great while I am honored to witness a wedding between 2 people that I love. I feel very lucky about this! It was a wonderful wedding and great time. I know Jay will tell everyone anyway so yes, I borrowed Loburts shoes for the wedding, thanks Rob! Kitty has always looked beautiful, but in a wedding dress, she was absolutely STUNNING! I have to admit that Jay was quite sharp looking also…what a great looking couple.
I met Zeus and Cherry there and also Cherry’s adorable children ^_^…they are super cute! I also met Loburts companion for the evening, Pim (salsera). She is a very pretty lady and maybe one day she will teach me to salsa dance? lol
I think when the pictures come out, everyone will know who was at this wonderful event, but to be honest…I really want to see Zeus’s video (the unofficial video) lol
I wish Kitty and Jay a long happy and prosperous life together!!
Also, at some point I was at Jay’s house and I am told that I was crawling on his floor (due to ingesting large amounts of alcohol)…did I make a fool of myself? I would tell more, but just can’t remember :O
Some people don’t like this place, but I loved it because we always had the top floor to ourselves. The first floor is kind of crowded though. I noticed that Chrisgent is one smooth character on the dance floor lol. As a matter of fact, so is Panyan (Petri)…2 smooth operators for sure! As for the ladies that night and the second night that we went there…wow!! They rocked the house. Even though we went in small groups, I probably can’t remember everyone’s name…I think I’ll blame the large amounts of alcohol I had drank…sorry if I can’t remember! Anisa, Apple, Christgent and his Pilipina friend, Petri, Kus, Arndt and the lovely Estella as well as angelmaster, Eddie his lady friend and um…err…..?? Please let me know if I forgot anyone ok?
QBAR
This was my first time going to this place. It was ok, but very crowded. It took me about 15 minutes to get to the bathroom everytime I had to go lol.
We danced and drank and had a good time. I am surprised that Pam was not so “outoforder” that night haha…kidding krup! Princess59 (Chantelle) got everyone on the dance floor…seems she has the power of persuasion lol Maybe she threatened to kick us with those big black boots if we didn’t dance? Lol. In a short time though, it got really crowded and was hard to use the dance floor. Some tfers there that I remember were….Princess59, Anny, me, Outoforder, Frankenburner and Pong, Hyper222, Nigelbragg, Bah_Eddie and his gf, Loburt, Gilgamish….alcohol kicks in at this time lol
I just remember going to Pam’s house afterwards? Either way, a good night!
PT2 to follow…
I have to thank Kus for having this event on such short notice. We arrived late to the restaurant, but did enjoy the food and whiskey. We all had good conversation and laughs. Afterwards we went to Satika and had a great time. I think Kus is a professional dancer, but just shy about saying it lol. I can’t thank Kus enough for a really lovely and fun filled evening!!
THANKGIVING DINNER
I want to thank Loburt for a fantastic evening at his house. We had the turkey with most of the trimmings ^_^
We all pitched in and made this get together happen. Jay’s supervisory skills were unmatched as he watched the rest of us in the kitchen lol. We watched Jay and Kitty’s wedding video, drank wine, ate and made much merry. I have to say though, putting Princess and Jay together for too long can be a volatile situation. The amount of goofing they did at each other was quite amazing lol. Well, thanks to all of you for a really fun night….Anisa, Rob, Zeus, Cherry, Jay, Kitty, Princess…err, and I think me. Did I miss anybody? Damn alcohol lol
I have to admit that Immortal is one of my favorite places and it was great to be back there again! When we arrived (Anisa, Chris’s friend, Chris and me), the place was rocking already! I saw Tammy and we showed each other the love with a really big hug!
I saw some old friends there as well as some new ones…but again, I got toasted so I may not remember all of you. Feel free to yell at me if I don’t remember, ok? Lol
Tammy, Nun, Nicha and her bf Chris, CiaranM, Chrisgent, Chrises friend (the lovely Pilipina lady), Aom….?, Tammy’s cousin Anny, drowsyThaigirl, pk pk, Yosita…gees, I give up cause alcohol and memory just doesn’t work for me lol
Anyway, we danced until our legs fell off and when they closed the place, we went to an area around KSR where you can lay down on mats placed on the street. For me, this is really when things get blurry. I just remember things spinning and bits and pieces of the rest of the night…hope I didn’t say or do anything out of place? I know that I had a great time though!! God, I already miss stumbling my way around ksr lol
I had the biggest hangover on Sunday (the night I had to leave back home). Paul gave me a call and said that he and Jeab would like to take me out for dinner. Of course I accepted and they brought us to Bourbon, a really great place to eat with dynamite food. It’s located in Washington square. We ate and caught up on things and I really had a great time. Thank you Paul and Jeab…let’s do it again….and again…lol
We went to coffee world and talked some more, but it started getting late and I had to get ready to go to the airport. We all said our goodbyes at my hotel. I’m gonna miss you guys…until next time anyway ^_^
I went to Siam square a few times and got a massage with Anisa. Well, I got a foot massage and she got the Thai massage because I’m a coward to deal with the pain haha. Apple joined Anisa and me for some karaoke. Side note: SORRY MELANIE FOR SINGING KAREOKE WITHOUT YOU AGAIN! She’s gonna kill me lol. Anyway, Anisa and Ple seem to enjoy making me try and sing Thai songs. I wonder how ridicules I sound trying to sing Thai words? But, I do like the songs they pick! I get a kick out of watching them because they look and pretty much sound like pro’s lol…They both belong on stage ^_^
I did some other things with some other people, but I’m getting writers cramp…really lol
Anisa sexy and I went to the airport to check in and make sure everything was on time. I was still so hung over and really, really tired and not too much fun for Anisa I’m sure, but I know she understands. At least I hope so? Usually I am an upbeat guy, but I felt so out of sorts. Anyway, sorry I wasn’t so much fun Anisa krup.
I want to thank those that gave me a gift…Ple, Anisa, Mam and Tammy. You guys are way kind and I appreciate it so much. And Rob, a special thanks to you…you know why brother!!
Again, I’m sure I forgot some names and maybe parties also so my apologies ahead of time my friends!
I have a third part to this journal about my being kidnapped by a really lovely lady…but, that’s yet to come…please stand by….
The kidnapping....5 December 2005
I finally got to meet in person a TFer that I got to know online thru TF. Online, she was charming, respectful and playful. Her pictures showed a very pretty lady. She also had a sense of culture that I could appreciate. But, I found in person that she was these things and so much more. I will try to keep this adventure story short…I will TRY lol
We decided to meet at one place at a certain time. She messaged me that she changed the place…then again to change the time….then AGAIN to change the place. So, I hadn’t even met this lady and she already had my head spinning lol
Well, we finally met in front of my hotel where she picked me up. She brought me to a nice place for some lunch and a bit of coffee. She was nicely dressed and looked more pretty than her pictures…I was dressed as usual, like a bum lol
After we finished our lunch, she decided that it would be nice if I had the chance to see the sunflower fields. I was free for the day so why not I thought. I didn’t realize that I was about to embark on a tour of just about ALL of Thailand! We were talking on the car ride and it was nice to get to know her better. I did however glance at my watch from time to time wondering where the heck she was bringing me…we drove on and on and on. She seemed to notice my confusion and made a comment that I had no choice in the matter of where she takes me. I was completely at her mercy because I had no idea where I was and she was the one driving….and she really enjoyed this idea a lot I think lol.
She even joked that I was being kidnapped and that I should just enjoy it lol
I noticed that she was a very good driver and felt comfortable in the car. The other thing I noticed was that she always seemed to miss the exits and turns that she needed to take! I would just hear “oh, we should have gotten off there” or “I think that was the exit” and a lot of “it must be around here somewhere.”
Finally we reached the sunflower fields (the small one) and I have to say that it really was a beautiful place! We climbed up on a wooden platform that over looked the fields, but when I came down the ladder, I twisted my ankle to avoid a pile of elephant dung. The ankle’s ok though ^_^
Then she says that I have to see the dam. I asked where that was and she said just around those mountains over there…hmmm a half hour drive maybe? Not the way she misses exits and “forgets” to turn off …more like 3 hours lol. Well, because I drink a lot of coffee, I asked her to find a place to use the restroom. No problem she says and we continue talking. Well after she passed the 3rd gas station I mentioned that maybe any one of them might have had a bathroom? She apologizes as she laughs at my misfortune and says she “forgot.”….hmmm
We make our way to the dam asking directions along the way (she finally agreed to ask directions lol). As we stopped from place to place asking how to get to the dam, people would make comments to her like “why are you going to the dam now” and “nobody goes to see the dam at night.” Well, it probably wouldn’t be night time if she didn’t “forget” to get off at the exits and make the turns she needed to I thought lol.
As we reached the entrance to the dam, she had to avoid some rather large craters that were in the dirt road. So, from side to side she swerved the car all the way to the top of the road…this was the first time I got seasick from a car ride lol. There were some beautiful orchid trees that lined the dam shore and although it was dark out, the shoreline looked really nice. It was a quite and peaceful place ^_^.
We had a bit of dinner at the local place while the mosquitoes had a field day dining on me :O
We made our way back to BKK and chatted some more. We met Anisa at Suda restaurant and then had some food there also.
So, it seems that my kidnapping worked out just fine because I had a really nice day…..err, and night. So, I’d like to thank Miss forgetful for a really cool time. She is a wonderful lady full of kindness and a positive outlook on life. She’s also a flirting machine, but that’s cool too lol
So you see my friends, it can be ok to be kidnapped by a Tfer with a profile name….so_whatever ^_^
Ok gang, time for a little update on my trip to the land of smiles.
I was going to give a blow by blow, but it would need to be in book form to be accurate so I'll just give some highlights lol
I first have to thank Rob (loburt) for allowing me to stay at his place because I arrived too early to check in to my hotel. Hey, I never said that I was a genius.
Also, I want to apologize to Anna (badpquiz). She came to Anisa's BD party and said hello to me and honestly I didn't recognize her. She was always a good looking girl, but the lady I saw was beautiful and had a different eye color than last time I saw her. It took me a minute to realize who she was. I think it was an honest mistake, but I apologize anyway Anna!
And as hard as I tried, I just couldn't make the triple BD party at Inch club either. I was leaving that night and with packing and what not, I just couldn't do it. Hope you guys had a great party there!
Inch club: new place from what I'm told and I like the place. I like the idea that they have an upstairs just like Satika's. I met some knew people there as well as some not so new friends. We drank, danced and had a really good time. We went out to eat in an outside place afterwards. Yeah, I'll go back to the inch club in the future for sure cause the place rocks!
Gulliver's, soi 5: This place might well become my second home from now on. I spent a good deal of time there and it was always a blast! Junk (cerberus1264) turned me on to this place. A lot of pool tables with friendly staff, good music and of course good alcohol ^_^
There are more stories about this place than I can accurately put to paper. And there are more stories about Junk than I can put to paper as well lol
I will say however that Junk is one of the greatest guys I ever met in my life and he and I had a blast with everything we did…and we did a lot :O
Soi Cowboy: Some of the faces changed, but the place is the same. Went to a couple of places there and had a good time. Can't say exactly why I like this place as a whole, but it probably has to do with the people I went there with my first trip to Thailand.
Suan Lum market: Man this place is large! Went there with Anisa to find a gift for her friend. As we walked thru the tight isles, Anisa was bumped slightly by someone and her bag hit a table with sunglasses on it. Of course the sunglasses fell all over the place and one pair broke. We had to pay 150 baht for the broken glasses. The stand was half way into the isle where people were walking and if this happened in NYC, we would have told the guy to screw off. But, when in Thailand….
Pantip: this place is huge! Many floors of all kinds of electronics. It's certainly a candy store for guys who can get lost in there for hours lol.
I had a special treat by meeting Jasmine (wuz_up/ voip) there for lunch. She really is a doll and is doing great with school. I wish I spoke better Thai so I could speak better with her, but that will take time.
Also shopped there with Anisa, Jeab, Rob and me. We had all gone out to eat first at a restaurant called Vanilla I think. It was great to see Jeab again and we all had a good time that day!
PanPan: Kitty put together a quick dinner at this place for about 8 of us. We had a good time talking eating and drinking wine. I must admit that after 2 glasses of wine, I was toast, but I was toast most of my time in Thailand also lol
A lot of good conversation was had that night. After PanPan, some of us went back to Jay's (2unique) house.. As we approached his doorway there was a flood of water and everyone started taking off their shoes and making their way to his building entrance. I mean this water was ankle deep!! So, of course the brave and daring Bobby whimpered like a small child about doing this as the others were saying, "come on Bobby, it's just water."
Well, I decided to scale a 20-foot wall and risk life and limb to get around the water to Jay's house. I know, I know, again I never said I was a genius lol
Well Jay calls me down and then says "I'll carry you over the bleeping water, hop on my back." Well, how many people can say they rode Jay's back for a while? Hahaha. Must be a joke in there somewhere? Either way, it takes a good friend to do something like this…thanks mate!
We drank some more and watched a movie called "mail order bride" about some psycho lady that Chantelle really enjoyed. Well, she enjoyed my reaction to the change in my opinion about this bride from compassion to shear fear lol
Bang Na Watit?: Not sure what area this is or even if I'm spelling it correctly. It's around a big shopping mall called "the mall." I went up there by myself by taxi to meet someone that I've known online for a while. She is a truly nice lady from Issan originally. I had a great time and wish she lived closer to central Bangkok. We had a good time talking and walking around the mall. Her name is Nok and I hope to get to meet her again. On the way back the taxi got stuck in traffic on the highway. Well, Bangkok traffic or not, I didn't want to wait so I walked off the highway and found Sukimvit and my way back home. But, I had a good day anyway.
Patpong: Not sure of the spelling of this place, but I went there with some friends and had a good time. I certainly could have gotten myself into trouble here because again I was with Junk. He always got me into some kind of mess or another lol But, a good kind of trouble. Ok, enough on this part hahaha.
Got a chance to meet with Estella and her friend Andre at Gullivers. Talked about all kinds of stuff as we ate. Was good to see you again krap…and remember what I said!
N'Tom and Sunee took Anisa and I to this place. I have to say that even though it's a re-creation, it's a really nice place. We took about a zillion pictures as we walked around. We had some lunch and walked along a pier there that is beautiful at sun down. Yeah, this was a good day indeed. Although I did get to see the naughty playful side of Sunee that I haven't before lol She really is a fun fun lady to hang out with!
Thank you N'Tom and Sunee for a great day!
Afterwards, we went to a place called "kupa kupa Borang" I think. They had a little band playing music and we ate and talked. Later, to my surprise, all of the waiters and waitresses came out with a BD cake for Anisa in a long concession with the band playing happy birthday. A really nice surprise for Anisa!! Yeah, the whole day was fantastic!
BNO: We all met up at the "rooster" bar somewhere around Nana. After some drinks and pool playing for some also, we made our way to Angelwitch bar/club. This place rocks and some of the crowd was well known by the staff. I like when people I am with are familiar with the place and staff cause I feel more comfortable. We all got seats at the area right next to the dancing girls. A bit too close for me so I moved to a booth near by. The shows there were good and the staff was great. We all had some good talk and really a great time. I have no problems ever going there again, a good place!
After we left Angelwitch we moved to a place downstairs. 3 of us danced and got the place rocking again as it was slow when we got there. Yes, the place felt our love hahaha. After it closed we moved to …..Penny Blacks.
Penny Blacks: I've been to this place before and find it to be a great after hours place. You can play pool, eat food and drink all the while with good music for partying. Now I can add more good memories of this place.
Afterwards….well, let's leave it at that lol
Bourbon street: we all met at this place where I had been before with some friends. The place is good and has good food also. We had some good conversation and had some laughs. I got a shirt from Zeus/Cherry that said, "Bite me." I guess I should watch what I say sometime or it gets printed on a shirt lol
After here we all went to …..
Skala bar: I had a lot of fun here trying to show some ladies how to play pool. What a blast, really. The usual drinking and shooting the breeze. There are pictures I think in Deesters journal from here if you want to see any…thanks Dee!
Honestly, I can't remember what happened afterwards and I blame that damn alcohol again….as usual lol.
Coliseum: Anisa just up and took me there. It's a very big place that has dancers on stage along with a band. There was a Thai comedian who was very popular with the ladies. I have to admit that although my Thai isn't good enough yet, I understood his comedy pretty well and he was very good!
If you are too close to the stage it will be a bit loud so I recommend staying a little further away if you can. One thing that gave me a bit of a shock was when I went to the bathroom. I was escorted by a Thai staff guy. I entered the bathroom and stood at the urinal. All of a sudden I feel a hot towel around my neck and a Thai guy massaging my neck as well????
I have to admit that if this happened in NYC someone would probably loose their teeth. But, I keep an open mind when in Thailand. I think it's just a way for the staff to make tips and I think it's ok. I told him that I was fine and didn't need a massage as I urinated and he seemed ok with that. I tipped him and left vowing to hold in my urine until I left the place hahaha.
But, I recommend this place anyway.
Soi 7: I found a new home for late night eating and drinking. I'm not sure how I started going to this outside place, but it probably had something to do with Junk. Anyway, we went there a lot. There is a very nice young lady who serves you food and drinks with a smile. You don't get bothered by ladyboys or bargirls too much if you are sitting down, but when walking on Sukimvit, I get bothered a lot.
Anyway, one time a strange girl came over to where Junk and me were sitting….looking for drinks and money I think. After a while she left, but I noticed to ladies sitting next to me and Junk laughing about this crazy lady. One of them said that she always was like that with farangs and was nuts lol.
I won't get into too much detail about these 2 ladies, but we became pretty good friends and hung out a lot on many nights.
There is one little bit of info I will share about this place though. If you have to go to the bathroom, you have to go around the corner into an alley that's dark and smelly a bit. Well, one night Junk makes his way around the corner, comes back and continues drinking. All of a sudden he says "where's my cell phone?" He looks all over for it and then realizes that when he went around the corner to pee, a lady boy hugged him. I guess she did the old hug and snatch…she took his phone!! A lesson learned I guess right Junk? I told him to stop playing with the lady boys, but does he listen? NOOOOOOOO!!
Only kidding Junk…you know you're the man brother!
Satika: Well finally I got the chance to see my beloved Tammy again. Actually Tammy's cousin Anny suggested a little get together. Anny met Anisa and I at a foot massage place by my hotel. We talked until the massage was finished. We went to a nice place with really good food and waited for Tammy who was fashionably late lol.
I didn't realize that I offended one of the waiters by telling him that there was no need to stand right there as we ate. It's kind of uncomfortable to eat and talk as a waiter is standing there watching not 2 feet away. I told him in a pleasant way though. Tammy told me that she understood, but that was the only person who could get us something if we wanted it….oooops, sorry. I'm always learning new things.
We had some good conversation and the food was really good too.
After we finished, we left and I thought that because Anny had to work the next day that we would call it a night. But, to my surprise we got a taxi and went to Santiks's.
I was surprised about going there, but Anisa told me that Tammy and Anny wanted to bring me there to thank me for the dinner or something. Who was I to argue about going out with 3 sexy ladies? I'm not quite that dumb lol
We went upstairs where there was room to dance and ordered a bottle of Rum…yummy!!!!
The band rocked and we danced a lot….although Anny never stopped dancing the whole night we were there. I asked her about getting up in the morning for work and all she said was "I'm a strong girl" as she flexed her muscles hahaha yes, she is!
I really had a blast that night and thank you guys for taking me out. And a special thanks to Anny for a very nice gift that she gave me!
We all must do this again for sure!
Anisa's BD party
Well what can I say? I like this place and I had a complete blast here. I met many new Tfers and some old ones also. Anisa looked very sexy and seemed to have a good time as we all did. The music can be very loud and Mike (Khun_Lung) seemed to be the smartest of all by putting tissue paper in his ears lol. It was great to see Mike again!
I lost a lot of my voice from singing to the band, but it was well worth it. There are some pictures floating around TF from this party and Anisa will post some soon I think. I did a lot of dancing with Kus who is a great dancer by the way. I also tried to fit in a dinner with her, but just couldn't find the time. She's a lot of fun to hang out with for sure!
I must have had a great time because there's a picture of me twisting Junk's nipples. I blame Zeus for that because he always says that I want to twist lady boys nipples or something….damn you! Not that Junk is a lady boy of course lol.
Ple, Rob and I brought the cake out to Anisa and we all sang happy birthday. I think it was a great night for a sweet lady who is loved by all. Once again, happy birthday Anisa krap!!
I know I left out many names, but some I did on purpose and also because I'm not too good with names when drinking major amounts of alcohol. I didn't want to forget anyone and make any bad feelings.
All in all I had a blast as usual and look forward to my return to the land of friendship and love!
Til then…….
