Laem Chabang
Docked in Laem Chabang then we caught a Taxi for 10 (cheaper by the bigger numbers!) into Pattaya in Thailand .Taxis were expensive from the Boat as the Taxi Owners had the dock monopoly BUT was cheaper on the way back as we hired our own.Very hot and we spent the days bargain hunting ( I did not buy BUT Annie did plenty!) Food was cheap and the beach front was very busy and lots of very senior Australians were spotted walking hand in hand (methinks tis the only way these young ladies can escape poverty ! although a few return with their older partners to Australia,where upon they will be granted Australian Citizenship after 2 years ! and hopefully when the older mans leaves this planet all his wordly wealth will stay with his partner ) Bartered the Taxi driver and was charged a minimal fee back to the boat !) The cabin lad has made a magnificent Monkey from towels and hung it from our cabin light,delightful !! Ship docked here for 2 days in the evening had a nice chatty boozy night in the Crows nest with fellow travellors Paul & Jill
