Members Lucky Posted January 24, 2011 Author Members Share Posted January 24, 2011 Lucky struggles to the finish line. Oz wore me out in Pattaya, and when I returned to Bangkok the hot and humid weather was still there. I walked my butt off anyway as there are so many things to see. The Arena massage parlor was almost across the street, so, after getting a foot massage for $6 an hour, I headed over there. Only 3 guys were out front, but they were welcoming and invited me in. That was good, because inside were about 20 guys working out, playing pool, etc. When a customer enters, they all line up, shirts off, for you to pick. The guy I liked best tried all sorts of sign language to get me to hire him, but I had all of those guys standing there, their hopes on me. So, I picked a guy from the back. What I thought was nice was that they all then cheered for him, then went back to what they were doing. My guy was a little on the tall side for me, nice skin, and very cute. On top of that, he gave an excellent massage. I wasn't so sure how erotic it would be since he left his towel on, but, once we flipped over, the towel went too. Realizing that I only had limited opportunities, I also went with another guy from the Bonny massage. All he had to do was smile at me and I was his. Friday night was dinner with MER poster firecat. We went to the Telephone Pub, which is a long time gay venue, and had a good meal outdoors. If we had sat inside, we could have used the phones on the tables to all other tables and try to pick up the guy there. (Truthfully I didn't look to see if this feature, which I had noted in the past, still exists!) Firecat took me to Best Boys Bangkok, where we watched the dancers for what seemed an interminable wait for the show to start. (Not that the multitude of boys dancing was hard on the eyes!) We noticed the guys across from us had picked a guy, and we both thought the guy looked much cuter once unavailable. What made it worse was that he then dressed, and I had to watch his cute face all through the show, wondering why I had not picked him. The show was okay, with several guys dressed as girls fucking another guy. Once again, big dicks prevailed. There was one dance number where a group of boys danced, but I focused on the cute one in front of me, dancing his heart out probably unaware that I was raping him in my mind. I think the main show there is later in the evening. Sadly, this is when the fatigue set in. On the way back to the hotel, I saw yet another very cute, and available guy, but I was just too tired. I determined to hire him on my last night, but as kjun notes elsewhere, my energy never quite resumed, and my grand finale was a grand bust. I did finish up my shopping though!! Ultimately, I had a great time in Thailand and truly enjoyed meeting the guys from MER. In Chiang Mai I stayed at a gay guesthouse called PJ's Place, which offers a very nice room, with a good breakfast, for $50, tax included, plus they provide free airport transfers. A deal. Chiang Mai bars are so far apart that the tuk-tuk is the main way to get around. They are quite a bumpy ride, and I enjoyed them much more when I was 30 years younger. In Pattaya, the feet are the main mode of transport, unless going to the gay beach at Jomtien, when you take a baht bus. (No, I don't know those guys.) The air is cooler in Pattaya, but not as nice as Chiang Mai, which is a higher elevation to the north. In Pattaya, I stayed at my old favorite gay hotel, the Ambiance. Never again. Pride of ownership, which used to be their forte, is gone. My sheets the first night were, in fact, clean, but the semen stains of the past had not come out. Yes, I got them changed, but the many bugs in the bath did not go away. The hotel now uses women to staff the desk at night, and that's okay, but it was nicer when you'd come in to be greeted by a cute gay guy. The real problem is that the attached bar, Boyz Boyz Boyz, which used to be the premiere bar in Pattaya, had really gone down hill. They used to get the best boys, and their show was the best in town. No more. Many new high-rise luxury hotels have gone up in Pattaya, so that may be the way to go next time. Bangkok is full of luxury hotels at decent prices, and, in that heat, you are glad to come back to something nice and relaxing. I didn't stay there, but the new Le Meridien is smack dab in the middle of Patpong, the main night life area. My flight back was on time, and fully packed. When approaching Narita, they announced that the flight to Portland was canceled due to mechanical problems, so many disappointed folks were about to go through what I did at the start of my trip. You'd think Delta would have checked those planes out before they bought Northwest. Tomorrow I start on those insurance forms. Finally, a word to anyone who expected me to have more sex: So did I.

Members Lucky Posted January 25, 2011 Author Members Share Posted January 25, 2011 I'll probably be re-reading these reports for some time. I sure miss having exciting adventures await me everyday. Aces, it's your turn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members axiom2001 Posted January 26, 2011 Members Share Posted January 26, 2011 Lucky, I, too, tremendously enjoyed reading your posts. They brought back memories when I was last in Bangkok, and from reading about some of your adventures, I might try to venture there sometime in 2012. What's the visitors' policy like in some of the luxury hotels in Bangkok. I stayed at a very, very nice and comfortable hotel when I was on the tour a few years back and somewhat slipped my guest in through a side door. But believe me I was nervous in doing this because I did not want to encounter any unnecessary problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Lucky Posted January 27, 2011 Author Members Share Posted January 27, 2011 I didn't test security at the fancy hotels due to previous experiences. I want to bring he guy back and not be stopped or questioned. I realize that they don't really care, but I find it intrusive. In the past, they have just wanted me to register the guy and pay $40 more. But, in both cases the guy did not have his ID with him. (Both from Tawan-no question that each was of age.) Once security knocked on my door and said they thought I had a woman in the room. I vociferously denied this, but they insisted on checking anyway. My muscle guy from Tawan still had his briefs on, but it was clear what we were up to. They, too, just wanted the $40. At another hotel, the manager was a friend of a friend of mine and told me that I could bring guys back without problem. But, when I escorted a guy out after we had enjoyed each other's company, a man in a suit got on the elevator with me. He pushed a different floor, but got off with me. Then he said he was security and wanted to check my room as he said I had a guy in there. He looked like security, so I was intimidated and he did check my room. OF course, the guy had left. The next morning I told the manager of this and he checked it out. Security claimed that none of their men did this to me, leaving it a mystery who this guy was.

Members firecat691614502759 Posted January 27, 2011 Members Share Posted January 27, 2011 Lucky I am really surprised you had any problems at your Hotels with guests. I have stayed at all the Marriotts, Sheratons and Westins in Bangkok and nobody even looked sideways at me. Naturally I always book a double room which almost always is the same price as a single and I have never been stopped or charged a single red cent. And if they tried to there would be an immediate call to the General Manager. There is no 5 star or other Hotel in Bangkok that on any night does not have women entering the Hotel who are not registered . They would be hard pressed to stop me with a young man. That said , I make sure the boy is dressed cleanly and does not look like a bum. I'm sure OZ would have the same comments and he has stayed at every 5 star you can think of because he is a Grand Pooba in all the Hotels .

Members eeyore Posted January 30, 2011 Members Share Posted January 30, 2011 Thanks so much for your travel report. I hope to get to Thailand maybe in December, or January of next year. I always enjoy reading travel updates from posters traveling in Thailand. In the meantime I will have to settle for John Burdett and Timothy Hallinan novels. I'm sorry that you had so many airline snafus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Lucky Posted February 4, 2011 Author Members Share Posted February 4, 2011 firecat, I don't doubt that you are right. I pointed out that it is usually just a matter of the hotel wanting more money. Regular guests and the guests in the top floors may not get stopped. Oz usually enters the hotel on a throne, being carried by ten of the hottest local guys. Which hotel is going to stop that? Eeyore, nice to hear from you. I will probably be reading this thread for some time to come so I can re-live the memories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Lucky Posted January 9, 2012 Author Members Share Posted January 9, 2012 In order to kdistinguish between the trip discussed here, and my present trip, I plan to give a new thread and a new title to the journal of my 2012 adventures in Thailand. Since the focus groups are not all finished in their efforts to create just the right title, and since I am still a bit jet lagged, that thread will not start immediately. Stay tuned.

Members Lucky Posted January 9, 2012 Author Members Share Posted January 9, 2012 I had to be sure of a variety of factors before I could make the trip, thus no announcement. But I am here working on outsourcing my posting in an effort to win that contest! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
