I spent the past week in Thailand with my parents and sister on a tour with 'Saigon Tourist'. The first 2 days were spent in Pattaya. The people there were always welcoming and friendly and the food was quite yummy (most of the time).
Day 1
After a 1 hour flight from Vietnam to Thailand, we were picked up by our Thai tour guides and driven straight to Sriracha Tiger Zoo, Crocodile Farm and Zoo. I have to admit, even though I hate seeing animals being trapped in tight spaces and being poked and prodded with sticks by humans, watching the tigers perform was quite fascinating. After the tiger show, we also watched a Crocodile show and then headed back to our hotel to rest.
Day 2
The next day we woke up early and walked over to the beach. We took a boat out to a dock to go para sailing. This was one of the best memories of Thailand for me. I was able to see over the city of Pattaya whilst being half a kilometre (just guessing) above the sea whilst also having a massive wedgie from the safety straps.
After para sailing, we went back onto the boat to go to an island to jet ski and relax on the beach.
We then went back to the hotel to wash up and get ready to go out to lunch. After lunch, we watched a cultural show and an elephant show at a place...I don't remember what is was called (sorry!). We got to feed the elephants and I also got to take a photo sitting on one.
For dinner we had buffet style hot pot and then went to watch 'Alcazar' - a show in which transgenders lip sync to songs in different languages in beautiful costumes and stage sets. I was so amazed by how beautiful some of these men/women were. It was quite a spectacular show. Definitely something you can not miss if you come to Pattaya.
