All in all, I had an awesome time. Even on my worst evenings, I spent a good part of the night/morning bouncing around naked with one or more attractive ladies. On the best nights, I thought that I had died and gone to heaven. On the Pattaya vs. Bangkok argument, I think that for sanuking, I have to go with Pattaya. The quality of girls in the two places is about equivalent, but in Pattaya the girls, hotels, and food are all a lot less expensive, meaning you can get more for your money. Also, hotels in Pattaya don't give you as much grief.

For anybody who is going, don't take anybody's advice, including mine, as gospel on the best place to find girls. I was disappointed with places that others have raved about, struck out at places that I have previously raved about, and had my best times at places that are hardly ever recommended by other boardies. Spend a lot of time looking around, you never know where you'll get lucky. I will probably return to places where I struck out this time, because the turnover in most places is high and you just never know when and where one that is just right for you will turn up.

I was the consummate butterfly this trip, but considering that not all bar girls are equal and that they become even more fun once they have time to get comfortable with me leads me to think that I may be more open to spending more time with a number one lady, as long as she doesn't mind not being the only lady in my bed. As I found out with Yip and Dian, it's not always easy to find the great ones again once you let them go. I think that next time I go to Misty's, I'll take Hub's advice and just razz the girls back if they tease me.

Non-sanuk things to definitely check out: Jim Thompson's House, The Tiger Zoo, and a large pitcher of Sangria at FLB.

I'm otta here guys.

Absolutely razz em back. Most Thai bar girls are into having fun. If you joke with them it makes you much more attractive to them. If they are giving you the pantomime for "smoking" give em back the universal tounge between the fingers for eating pussy and they will go nuts. As to your point about butterfly vs long time with one girl, my usual is to butterfly until the last 5-7 days then settle in with my favorite or 2 favorites.. As you said though it definitely makes leaving much more emotional ! You can always keep in touch via e-mail or phone now that ALL these girls have cell phones and e-mail addys. My next trip is starting with the favorite sweetie from my last trip as we have kept in frequent contact by phone.It does however give you blue balls to remember what it is like to be with them and only be able to talk on phone though. Should make first meeting that mich more explosive.

Overall thanks for an enjoyable and excellent report !!
