Hello brothers,
Through a bit of good fortune I'll be back in LOS in April, and have just noticed that I get to enjoy the hottest part of the year and Songkran.
I'm curious to know, is it a dry heat or does it still rain on and off? What sort of things do the bars get up to (are we talking water fights / great shows)? Do prices go up because it's a holiday period? Or is it noticeably quieter, being outside of the peak season?
And I've been to Pattaya/Jomtien/Koh Samet before and wasn't planning to go again, but will I be missing out on anything beach-wise over the holiday period?
Having tripped & stumbled through almost all the mistakes an LOS newbie can make last year (Sep/Oct) I am really looking forward to having a bit more experience behind me, and hopefully having another fun & more relaxed time.

pattaya can be a water nightmare if you don't enjoy [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord118][CodeWord118][/url] and talc. it is humid...approaching may....which has the second highest rainfall (only topped by the end of the rainy season). bkk will have less of a water issue and a shorter version....as do most other places...other than pattaya. my understanding is that hua hin is less humid and has less rainfall during this period of time.

Meet in BKK
A buddy (from another board) and I are leaving for BKK in a couple hours from Pattaya. Any ISG members in BKK can find me tomorrow (Thursday night) for a drink at Nana Hotel bar maybe around 8pm. I will where my Cuba baseball jersey so I should be easy to spot (I am also bald but so are many farangs). Let's hook up for a drink and to check out the N.H. parking lot action. Staying at the Dynasty Inn just a few doors down from N.E.P.
Anyone interested?

Ipm,
I will get to BKK on the 23rd. Are you leaving the 23rd or 24th for Manila? If 24th, would love to meet for drinks.
Actually, I think I met you at Oase last summer (mid July) when we were talking in the outdoor whirlpool. I didn't really use this site much before but thinking back, it must have been you based on the reports you wrote.
Anyway, I will be in Thailand from May 23 to June 6 or 7. In BKK for 4-5 days, then my plans are open. Was thinking of going to Pattaya instead of Phuket. Also considering Philippines but have not investigated flights/hotel/city yet.
