Back from Thailand... Pataya...

Hi guys!!! Sorry for not blogging for the past couple of days....we didn't bother bringing a laptop and so no blogging! We just got back from Thailand - Pattaya & Bangkok and we had a great time!

We arrived in Thailand with 30 degree weather, it was hot hot hot!
We met our tour guide (Fong Yee) who led us to our bus, we had a 2 hour bus ride from the Bangkok airport to Patayaa where we would be staying for 2 days. We ate at a restaurant called Kinnaree Seafood - mmm it was good food. Then we stopped off at our hotel called Pataya Central which was apparently a 3 star hotel....but I would not recommend anyone to stay at that hotel :)



Lots of good shopping near buy, it was extremely cheap and you could bargain like crazy! Walk away and they would beg you to come back!

We went to a zoo where we were able to ride elephants and pet a baby tiger!



We have to go have some late lunch now...so I will post later :)
