Pattaya Reports

[Explorer8939]

So, in preparation for my trip to Ban Chang, I sent the bargirl money so she can pay her barfine (1,000 baht) and meet me in Ban Chang.

I checked in to the hotel. And then she messaged me that she's sick, and can't make it.

Most likely, she took a free day from work, and her husband wanted her to stay home.

The true test is whether she sends me back the 1000 baht. If not, she lost a customer.

Anyway, I will hit the Ban Chang bars soon.

[Explorer8939]

This is probably the best time to hit the Pattaya bars (ignoring the heat), because there aren't many customers, but most ladies haven't gone home yet. The bars that were staffed up for High Season are filled with bored ladies now.

The only downside is that the top tier ladies are still booked up, either with customers still around, or they are sponsored up by lonely guys who went home months ago.

Sometimes I get messages from top tier ladies who don't have a customer, and so they have to undergo the inconvenience of finding one.

I am meeting one lady from Sattahip at my hotel in Ban Chang. We will drink and fuck in the room, and then hit the bars afterwards, she is looking for a bar job.

She was talking about having some friends drive to Ban Chang to go to the bars, but the logistics probably won't work out.

Today I make a detour to Ban Chang for a one night stay.

How many girls are you taking with you?

Today I make a detour to Ban Chang for a one night stay.

Before Covid, Ban Chang had a thriving bar scene, but the post-Covid scene was very quiet. I'll take another look today.

One note: getting to Ban Chang from Pattaya is much easier with the new freeway and Bolt taxi. And cheaper, too.

[Explorer8939]

Thanks. This is a much clearer picture of whether it is busy or not in Pattaya. As opposed to "I had to wait one time 15 minutes for a Bolt so that means Pattaya is so busy. ".

Before and during Songkran, wait times for Bolt were interminable. Now Bolt is quick and cheap.

It's the usual Low Season vs High Season situation.

Transportation

The Baht Bus is great if your destination is on or within walking distance of the route.

If all you are doing is hanging out in the tourist district of central Pattaya, there is no reason to worry about space on the Baht Bus. If fact, there is never a reason to worry about space on the Baht Bus. If it is full you just wait for the next one. But head into greater Pattaya during high season and you will experience what I have described in previous posts about the having Baht Busses pass you because they are packed with people.

Bolt is great. Door to door service. Comfortable. Of course if you cannot afford to use it stick with the Baht Bus. I have never paid more than 200 THB for a ride to my destination via Bolt. During my time in Pattaya, the cost difference between the Baht Bus and Bolt has never been a concern or worry of mine. When I am loaded down with packages (because of a shopping spree where I am getting respect for my cards like in the movie Pretty Woman) after shopping with my Thai girl, it makes sense not to pile onto the Bath Bus. Someone mentioned it is hot in Pattaya now. They were right.

Does the Bhat Bus have air conditioning?

Hello.

Is there a place like Phrom Phong Bangkok but in Pattaya.

I mean not really a massage shop, most likely a small soapy parlor.

A place where there are like 10 girls. You chose one and the price and you go upstair in a room do your things.

Is Bolt less than 10 baht. Hahaha.

In the many moons I've been going to Pattaya worrying about space on baht bus is not even a Concern.

Once I'll got passed by a Bus with 30 indians. Outlier peep.

Post Songkran, wait times for Bolt are very reasonable. But traffic is still terrible, probably due to Chinese tour buses, but also population growth in Pattaya.

I taxied it to Maggie Mays yesterday, and was surprised to see yet another cousin of Honey / Cindy / Plai working there (the ladies from Laos). Looking around Soi Pothole, it wasn't quiet, still plenty of customers.

Waiting for BOLT taxi: 5 minutes. No more having Baht Bus pass me because they are packed. I am having to wait for the Baht Bus to leave at start of route points.

Foot traffic on Beach Road is much lower. The amount of customers in my favorite restaurants are lower. High season is over in my Pattaya.

Today is April 22,2024.

In order to provide better intelligence about prices for those who seek it: The baht bas costs 10 THB.

I was hoping Pattaya would be quieter after Songkran, but I had to wait 15 minutes for a Bolt taxi.

Maybe tomorrow (Monday) will be the start of Low Season, but last year, it was busy until May 1.

So hotel occupancy was down in Pattaya during Songkran.

Rich Kings and Queens didn't show up like they thought.

Lots of Rice Farmers did show up though. Was it any Surprise.

I saw on Livestream lots of Ugly Portly Thai Woman's having the time of their lives. So there's that.

Quote:"Desperate time calls for desperate measures. Even esthetically challenge girls like her need to eat. I was happy to have given money to feed herself for a few weeks. Afterwards, I was broke as a bum, so I ate some chicken hot-dogs from 7-11 with siracha mayo. ".

Maybe senor Mexicant could poste a picture or two of himself so that the readers of this forum get a better understanding of his standarts.

Confused. Were you more thrilled that ALL the girls got on stage or that the stage went up and down?

The only way you could be confused is if you have never been to Kink. Is that the case?

I am confused by your confusion. The answer to your question is here:

Kink (agogo) LK Metro
Then the best part occurs! All the girls get on stage and it lowers. Oh yeah! A show to behold and I am taking those 20 THB notes and making it rain.

I do not know how to put it any clearer in the English language than that!

If I put out exactly what I actually saw on the stage it would spoil it. In my opinion it is:

The wonder of Pattaya is the plethora of choices,

The man is giving you some ALPHA here.

The reason there are so many choices of venue types and sub-types is that each has its own customer base. "One man's trash is another man's treasure", as the saying goes. So I am also puzzled why you would stick to one place instead of exploring the other ones. 2 weeks would be barely enough to try out enough places to conclude there is nothing in town to your liking!

I tip my hat to you LocalExplorer This is a straight drop the bat and watch walk off home run.
