Any info about Ubon Rachathani and Khong Chiam, near the Laos border ?

[Boom]

[Boom]

Freeler, I am sure not bringing a chick along!!! That is like bringing sand to the beach. HAHA. Thanks for the flight info though. I may take the bus...but I really don't like to waste time. The max I want to mess with a bus is an hour or two, otherwise I'd rather fly. Certain things I don't mind breaking the budget on.

What is the market prices in Khorat, compared to Bangkok an Pattaya ? How much for ST and LT in general ?

[Boom]

Zelda, this is the type of info I am looking for. many many thanks! I'll be up there the first week in July so if you see 2 white guys in the discos....come on up and say hi. I am really looking forward to the non existant westerners that are all over Pattaya. It will be strange to be in a disco with no other white guys, but I anticipate the advantages. Also, is there any taxis up there? The way you guys talk it is all buses.

Lastly, I take it there are no flights to Korat? I dont really want to mess with the bus.

This is all great info though, thanks.

[Boom]

Freeler -- Good question...I have no idea how I'll be getting there. I do know that I don't like to waste time on buses and trains though, so if I can, I'll be flying. However, I don't know if this is possible. Any suggestions? I'll coming from BKK though.

[Boom]

Freeler, many thanks for the link. All the info looks really good. When was the last time you were there? Was there any discos open? I couldn't find any info on that.

[Boom]

Ok Freeler and AdleZ, the reason I wanted to email is because I have alot of questions, but if you (or anyone) are willing to answer them here...cool! I am only going to Korat and possibly Udon for only about 2 or 3 days so I won't have much time to spend looking around and if someone can point me in the right direction, then great. I am trying to get away from the tourists in pattaya, phuket bkk etc and I am sure there are nice places off the beaten path.

1. Any suggestions on which hotels to stay at? I have heard it is much cheaper up there for a nice hotel. I obviously don't want to spend 1500 baht, but I do need a shower and AC...for the ladies of course. haha

2. I mainly like the freelancer types. I thrive in the disco atmosphere. However I will go to beer bars if necessary. Massage Parlors are ok...but only as a last ditch measure. Any suggestions on clubs or beer bars? Locations?

3. I have also heard people talking about picking up girls at a park somewhere in town. That sounds like someplace I would be happy. Can anyone expand on this?

4. Golf courses definately interest me. Any idea on the greens fees?

5. Lastly, what is the going rate up there? I do not want to mess things up by paying BKK prices.

these are just a few questions I have so any help anyone can give me is greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

So freeler,

what you are saying is spend my time someplace else??

[Boom]

Udon Thani - Does anyone have any information as far as Discos, beer bars or hotels in Udon Thani? I have not seen any postings for this area and appreciate any info.

Freeler...

Thanks for the great report on Korat. I will be in Korat in June and do you have any recomendations for hotels? Can you tell me where to look for girls in Korat?

Thanks
