Well, 2 nights in BKK and I am missing Pattaya already!
So, the first evening / night at my hotel was a downer. AC not working well enough (I like it cold) and water leak from bathroom sink, wifi problems, LOL. This took several visits from engineering and it was not until late evening I reported these water and AC issues. Hotel on Soi 23 right around the street from Soi Cowboy (about 5 min walk max). So, with things not fully fixed but with wifi good (they installed an in room router to boost the signal) I left around 1230 at night and told them I would be gone for 3 hours and they better have things fixed by the time get back.
So, I head out to Soi Cowboy on Friday just to check because I thought things would open up around midnight after the Buddha holiday curfew. Well, I head out to Bangkok Beat via taxi and I am surprised at how different it looked in real life and where it was located, but anyway the guys at the entrance seem nice and I enter. IMO, the place is a frickin dump. I stay just 1-2 minutes to survey the place and the few girls who are there (all 5's and under IMO) and I leave without buying a drink.
Head over to Soi 11 where things looked better, I had walked by there in the late afternoon, but somehow I missed Levels this time around and came up to The Sugar Club and saw it was active. 200 baht to enter (one beer or non brand mixed drink incl) and the place was packed. But, soon I discover (maybe because of the Buddha holiday?) it's packed with an extreme hip hop bunch of people (like NYC and even Classicos in Sosua), 2/3 men, and 1/3 girls, with the girls being mostly white chicks American, Euro AUS / NZ and Russia / CIS (yeah). Thai girls maybe 10 PC of the entire population there and they were mostly in groups (friend, coworkers and with their farang colleagues). Nevertheless, I am beginning to enjoy the music and the ambiance and I have a good time dancing / grooving until 515 am and then just head back home, because I had pretty tapped out by my massage girl from earlier in the am, until 1130 am in Pattaya. Drinks are expensive at Sugar (250 baht for brand name drinks) , and I probably spend 2000 baht there just on myself! But, it I was ok with that.
So, sleep in pretty late and now they upgrade me to a room with a nice balcony and bigger sq ft. And everything is working fine but with my same in roomwifi booster. Getting to head out late Sat night, and get a ding on my iPad and I have to spend an hour resolving some urgent family matter. And now I head out but my frame of mind is down from the incident (which in the overall scheme of things is not a biggie but I was frustrated by it anyway). So, I head out to The Italian Restaurant (the big one on Sukhumvit and Soi 23 intersection) and have a nice Fettucine Carbonara and it's like $9. Wifi there is good and I am finishing up the other family stuff.
Walk over now and see all these small sidewalk mobile bars around from Soi Cowboy (I did check out Crazy House, some beautiful girls no doubt) but by now it's 1 am and the guy to girl ratio in there is at least 3 to and 1 and I spot Japanese, and other tourist know I'd be wasting my time with such a ratio and with it having been closed the previous night.
But, I am curious about the girls in the sidewalk mobile bars and see some girls that are not too shabby. So, I walk back and girth and there's many trying to get me to come visit with them. After going back and forth this one girl, quite cute actually, starts talking to me and after about 5-10 minutes of her propositioning me for 1,500 (saying she will do everything) I am actually now getting interested. Now, this girl, starts digging at my John and tries to get me excited and she is wearing a halter top and she takes my hand and opens the top down just a bit to reveal just the kind of firm tits I like. She is 22 (I saw her ID) but she is def drunk a bit and she wants me to play with her tits on Sukhumvit RD and I smile and oblige. Man, I loved those tits. So firm and perfect. She is nit a slim or petite girl but not fat either. So now, she wants a tip for that! Haha. Ok, I pull out 20 baht (because I was kinda forced into it on the street right there ) and she like says she wants more for the 30 seconds that she took my hands and had me fondling her titties in the sidewalk bar area. Now, I am just about to take this girl, cause I have the hots for her, and notice the somewhat angry expression she showed on her face because I just gave her only 20 baht and I change my mind, knowing she is drunk and could be an in-room issue, and get a taxi to Soi 11 and head to Levels Club. Problem : they want me to check my hat behind (and it's an my expensive brand name hat, which I can no longer find and love too dearly) and so I say screw that and head back to the Sugar Club almost next door. ( I have been offered over $100 for that in bars back home cause it is no longer available and it has a following ).
Hang out there until 5 am and have good time with a more balanced crowd Sat night, but way too many young and good looking blond, farang men (many model quality) and some really beautiful blond girls also model quality! I don't feel like I can score anything good due to the competition. Still I enjoy and hang around until 5 am. Some serious tourist money floating around tonight. Sugar Club sells these packages of multiple bottles and mixers for 10000 baht and up, and one European guy and his dad are on this sofa with 3 Vodka bottles ( the dad sees me, Stands up says hi In broken English and hands me an almost full (like 90 PC) and says they have too many bottles. I say I don't drink Vodka and give him fives and say thanks. He then wants to know if I prefer whisky and he will get me a bottle. And, again I feel bad I have to decline. I can vouch that after 2 nights there is some serious money being made is this packed hip hop place. Anyways, I enjoy until 5 am and I them I leave and get a cab.
This cabbie wants to take me to a dive bar that very few know. Ok, I go along and arrive at this dive 2-3 story bar, (lower level closes after 4) and action moves up until 8 am, I am told. Francis is the owner / manager and the bartender lady is super great, classy and speaks good English. See a couple of American guys with suits and wedding rings partying and wonder how in the world they got to the dive place. Let me guess: their cabby. Mine also tried to sell me the little blue pills. Anyway, I'm like do I even want to be here. Until I see about 3 of the 15 girls who are kinda cute. One in pony tails (25) from Isaan (may have Japanese blood and has young Japanese features and slim body but she is playing a game on her phone, sitting at the little bar there but seems uninterested in me. Francis tells me I can take any girl there to my hotel for ST 3 K, or LT 4 K. I negotiate and agree on 2. 5 K LT and a mixed drink there costs me 200 baht which is suprising. Then, I see the other 2 girls, both about 24-26 , one blond and petite but wide hips, and the other cute, dressed in a nice 2 piece blue skirt suit, and with a US gym instructor strong athletic build. After talking to all 3 , I decide on the one with a blue suit as I like her body and she looks very presentable for me for my 6 am hotel entrance. She is nice in the car and the room and we chat for quite some time and it's all good. Then I ask for a massage, she takes a shower and then asks if she will get a tip and I say yeah, if it is a good massage. She is from Buriram and she is okay and then we get with the action soon enough and everything about her body is as expected, super firm tits and ass and we have a good time. And I take a shower. She does the same again, but now she emerges dressed and it's only 3 hours max, not what I had agreed to, for the 2. 5 K I had paid to Francis. And, I am thinking to myself okay this girl is going to do the ST switcheroo and sue enough she says only some girls there will do LT, she can't, but if I agree to an additional tip for her she will stay until 2-3 pm. I decline and off she goes.
And, I'm now saying to myself, man I screwed up. I should have known to confirm with the girl in front of Francis and all three of us are on the same page. But, I didn't and it's all my fault. I can't believe I made this kinda rookie mistake but I really felt it would not be problem (wrong!!).
So goeth my first 2 nights and as I noted I am missing Pattaya already because BKK is like any other big commercial city and its all just commerce. No GFE like Pattaya. More reason next time to never stay in BKK.
