Monday, January 9 ~ Moving on again....

How is everyone today??

Myself, I am doing good, and I am enjoying sharing my experience with you all.

Today was the last day I spent here in Pattaya so I had some things I wanted to get done before leaving. I would really like to stay longer and maybe get some more tattoo's, but I have to give up my room to someone else. That is my signal to move on with the adventure. 

I had some follow up work I needed to get done on my computer at the IT mall today, so that is where my day was headed. The IT malls here are fantastic ~ Anything and everything you could ever want or need that involves electronics. The one that I visited is called Tukcom, and is about five stories high and wall to wall stuff! I ended up arriving about an hour before they opened the doors, so I had some time to kill in the area. Coffee, food, and purchases.

This is a picture taken of the very large shrine outside of the grocery store I usually go to when I am in town. This grocery store caters more to the Western crowd (Not Cowboys).

This is one of two or three dogs that live at the grocery store, and hang out in front. They all have three legs, and they have been here for as long as I have been coming to Thailand. They are rescue dogs that the store takes care of, and I do believe there is a donation spot in the store. I'm not sure where the other one, or two were hiding this morning so I only got this picture. These dogs get around on three legs well.

It is very cool that the store has taken these dogs in... She wants to know what it is exactly that I am doing, and is probably thinking "Go Away I Am Trying To Sleep!".

Okay, I used to have a spiral staircase like this ~ It went up one floor, was very cool , and I Loved it.... But this is a little extreme! I just don't know about this many floors with the stairs attached to the side of a building. If you have never walked up a spiral staircase, it can be weird already without adding an extra six floors. There is another one at the Catholic Church across town here in Pattaya that goes up the bell tower, and that one I have dared to scale with a white knuckled grip.

This is across from the temple where they sell offerings to give to Buddha and the Monks. I don't think the cat was for sale though.

A morning look at the streets of Pattaya.

I can't believe that I have waited this long for some sticky rice and mango. If you have never had it you are really missing out on such a treat!!

Oh so yummy!!

Decided to buy a little something for the back of one of my leather riding jackets.

It mall is now open and I have dropped my computer off for a little more work. Now it is time to visit HAPPY PHONE for the purchase of my I-Phone.

So, I went with the IPhone 4 instead of the 4s for several reasons, and I'm sure it will be plenty of phone for me.
My question is ~ What do I do with that giant thing with the three legs on it???

Decided to grab some lunch from a local street vendor ~ Green Papaya Salad ~ Very Spicy!

Hand made fresh right in front of me.

Good stuff goes into making this salad. I think this why the girls stay so skinny around here ~ Most of them only eat  Green Papaya Salad.

Finished Product

Hanging out in the lobby area outside of my room at Sanya Apartments waiting for my ride back to Bangkok.

Almost back in Bangkok.

They had my car out front waiting for me at my new hotel!

The steps going down to the main doors of the Ramada Encore... That first step is glass and has water under it!

Looking back up the steps... This is a very nice hotel. Even has a Salt Water Pool on the rooftop.

Shrine in the lobby.

Another one of the shrines in the lobby.

Reception

Very modern hallway going to my room ~ Just follow the ribbons in the carpet ~ this place is very wild!

Around the corner and I am almost there!

The room numbers are actually lights and they match the colors in the carpet.

The new room.

That was pretty much it for me today.... Got myself into the shower, did a little bit of walking around to get my bearings of where I was at, and then it was back to the room for bed shortly there after.

Thanks for following me another day here on my adventures!

I am not sure yet what tomorrow has in store for me yet, but you can be sure to be included in my travels and adventures.

Have a Great Positive Day!!
