Last night we went to Patong for a night out. Our thinking is that right now it is probably the safest place in Thailand. Loads of security and I think it is pretty unlikely there will be a follow up bombings there anytime soon. Well let's hope there are no more follow up bombs anywhere anytime. Obviously many other people felt the same way as it was packed out with people. Patong is definitely a unique place, that is really the only way I can think to describe it. It is a place that I will definitely not frequent, probably only when we have guests here that want to see it. Bangla Road is packed out with bars, night clubs, people offering you ping pong shows and loads of other various things. We also saw lots of other parts of Patong as we went from hostel to hostel to get one that would take Lola (a taxi there and back would have cost us at least $50, a hostel for the night $10), I think it is a place I could be fairly frustrated as the age gap of most of couples we saw at bars down the side streets made my skin crawl. But that was not a surprise, I have been to Thailand before.
Having said all that we did have a great night. We went out with our new friends Jackie and Brian. Jackie is also new at the school and her boyfriend Brian is also a trailing partner. We went to a few bars and then dancing for a bit. I cannot wait for our next night out, hopefully in near by Bang Tao, as we drove through and looks more our vibe.
