Lukey and Louisey's Round-The-World Adventure

The end of our Asian Adventure...

is near. Our time here at Pattaya has been soothingly relaxing. We've beached and bar-hopped, what more do you need?! Luke and I have been filling our days by buying snacks at the 7-11 and sitting and/or lying on the beach. A dreadfully hard life. This weekend we went and checked out some of the local markets which were really great. Much like the Khao San Road markets misus the barganing. (Everything is already pretty cheap.) I, not surprisingly, have bought abundantly. A really great feeling. And last night we went to Walking Street and checked out the very neon-lit bar scene. This is a single boys heaven. It really is. (Luke's soccer team take note. A fabulous location for, say, an end of season trip... Stay at my Dad's guest house! It's really great! ;) It was also hilarious when people on the street tried to convince us to come watch one of the ever so popular "sexy shows" (they seem to really like those here), but then realised there was a cop (my Dad's business partner's gf) with us and just as quickly retracted their offer. Funny! Also, just a random note, the hooker heels per capita here are astounding.

We really don't have much to report because we have been that lazy. We are storing energy for our European Extravaganza. We fly out of Bangkok to Zurich on Australia Day so another reason to celebrate! It's really weird and extremely sad that the tropical and enjoyably cheap portion of our World Tour is coming to an end. We have met some really great people and seen some incredible sights so the feeling is bitter sweet. In one instance I wonder where the time went and in the next I feel as though we have been away from home for ages. Time really flies when you are somewhere tropical!
