It’s a Disney story and I enjoyed it being an adult Disney fan. Too much blah blah about actors views, etc outside the movie. It’s a movie….story is magical, animals are cute and Dopey, well I do see the resemblance ~ the Imagineer must be a fan of his. People spend too much time nit picking … enjoy the entertainment

From what you ask…. reading this forum. I have enjoyed reading over the years to learn about Thailand, Brazil and fun travel. Now it seems everyone is on the Trump wagon. 70% of the posts this week …. Trump. let’s get off the politics and chat fun travel. There is enough crap in the media, why make this a Trump haven

Alipay APP in china or WeChat pay in china is about the only way to pay for anything. Cash and credit cards are not much in use anymore.

Grindr

Thanks. Bandaran Suites good option so far, will be working during my stay so need solid internet etc. Bally Suites not available my dates

Thank you

Seeking recommendations on short term condo/apt rentals in Bangkok. More upscale is preferred. Have been checking Airbnb and vrbo already, open to area but something very convenient to BTS.

The Evisa will be supported by a company called VFS. There COO stated there will be delay, government will announce in August.

Airlines are held to uphold immigration rules and Thailand officially requires you to have onward ticket. When you book flight to Bkk many airlines have small print or pop box that states you can be denied entry if you only hold one way ticket. Airlines work hard to avoid fines

USA imposes mandatory test for those coming from China, Hong Kong and Macau starting 05 Jan. Must be negative to board flight, this will impact those thinking of going to China as rules eased. Who wants to go and possibly get infected then get stuck.

You can tell them to f…. Off on your way to lock up 😉

Those returning to USA, immigration has the right to open your phone, iPad, computer and look at pics. Don’t let an embarrassing pic ruin your return home.

The usual apps are filled with paid guys, beware as most use very old or fake pics. Have only had one good encounter with youthful early 20 something top guy in Delhi area. He has since disappeared. I am headed back this weekend for a week for work, I’m sure my Grindr will explode with messages again. Lots of them without pic or want sextext only.

Stay in intercontinental in São Paulo and je Marriott Copacabana … anybody know visitor policies? Hope to have some fun but last time in Brazil hotels did not allow visitors, did love hotels but that gets costly. Not really in to sauna scene.

Here is the service. https://limousine.in.th/fast-track-immigration.php have used them many times and always spot on, for me worth money spent, especially the cart. Except one time my gate literally at immigration. The still whizzed through immigration and out, they did refund my cart fee very quickly.

Video worked for me.

Evisa is available but COE is as well, the documents to secure both are lengthy.

Yes a test is still required to enter the USA from any international destination. The usa does not currently recognize vaccination as a factor to enter or leave the USA.

Yes, this is a deadly highly contagious disease. Mandatory vaccination. People need to get over this violates my right, since when does anyone have the right to spread a highly deadly disease.

Rest well Firecat. Good man, met him twice once in Montreal and once in Pattaya along with Michael and a nice French dinner.

Plague, hmmmmm. Covid-19 does not equal the plague. Not being fussy just plague millions died globally and vicious virus that killed quickly.

Sweden joined the list of approved countries to enter the Kingdom for tourism. Not just STV but normal tourist visa, still need insurance and bank minimum. COE also required and limited flights. Not easy but more to be added, i for one will wait to a more normal state whenever that is.

The same in the other bubble countries, about 12 countries in all. Asia and EU, no usa or UK. This STV is called the rich mans visa as the money requirements and insurance are high.

Visited bkk last weekend, nightlife was busy, many customers in the places I visited. Went to Safari World, 80% Indian tourists

In bkk 27-30 April if anyone like to meet for a drink and perhaps tour the gogo venues. Feeling like a new adventure after many LOS visits. Msg me
