Thailand 2024

And the most surprising thing to me. Marijuana is legal here now and sold on every corner.

Had a great time in Phuket. Wedding last night. The resort was beautiful. Our room was $100

All good things must come to an end. Time to head back to our house for 2 days and then back to the US. Was a great trip.

No trip would be complete without stopping at the US Embassy at least once ( This is what my wife likes to call it )

There's no way KFC would allow this at home.

Final story to close out the trip. The first time I came here about 18 years ago I went golfing with my wife's friends husband. I'm left-handed and didn't bring my sticks. The guy speaks no English. We get to the course and the only set of lefty clubs is already rented. So they give me some righty's and off I go. It was so embarrassing and frustrating trying to learn to golf backwards. The worst part is you are given a young female caddy. My poor girl was chasing my ball all over the jungle whenever I was lucky enough to hit it. She was better than anything I've ever seen at finding a ball.

The highlight of the day for me was teeing off on 18 and actually hitting one down the middle. I couldn't believe my eyes when out of nowhere a monkey came running into the fairway and stole my ball.

My wife told me today we live less than 10 minutes from the course. I had to stop by and get a few pictures. Seeing it again today I couldn't believe how many monkeys there were. They are everywhere.

Monkeys are the squirrels of the jungle.  But tasty when cooked and served on a stick.  

 
We spent the day yesterday on the water so not much to show. Our group chartered the boat at Kan Eang resort. It was a non stop party all day. We anchored off an island called Banana reef and went swimming  / snorkeling. The water was nice but too many jelly fish at the time so it was enter at your own risk. 

I hope to go out tonight and get pictures from the walking street. It's called Bangla Rd if anybody wants to Google it. Have a good night everyone.
