We Were Off Early To Beat The Rush,

to go to immigration, but already the place was packed,

 this in itself is not normally a problem as most people are queueing for re-entry visas or other services, normally the 90 day check in takes us less than 5 or 10 minuets as the process is computerised now, but it was not to be today, the ticket machine had broken, so for what ever the reason the queue moved slowly, over an hour and a half before we were seem, but the good news was that by then the queue for the re-entry visa I need for my next trip the the UK had nearly disappeared, 10 minutes later and we were on our way,

 to Walking Street,

 where we parked the bike,

 we do not go to town that often, but I am sure this go-go was not here the last time we were here,

 but I do seem to remember this one,

 we made our way under the huge television screen the marks the beginning of Walking Street,

 but first had a quick look back along the street, it looks so different in the daytime,

 we walked towards the oncoming traffic on Beach Road, the Siren bars on our left,

 then turned left into the passage way that leads to the Pattaya Beer Garden, past the Siren's bars shrine,

 Pattaya beach looking past the water treatment plant,

 the mini garden itself,

 we sat in the shade on the outside decking,

 we were still quiet early, so there was plenty of seating inside and out,

 Diana decided on one of her favourites here, mini hamburgers and hand cut battered chips,

 a chicken curry for myself,

 after our meal we made our way back to the bike,

 and then under the television and home,

 these are the two plastic bottles of mushroom spawn as it is called that we bought, so the race is on to grow some mushrooms between Diana and myself, Diana has chosen the kitchen for her growing area, I took the advice of the saleslady and am putting my hopes in the bathroom as it is darker in there, in the afternoon Mark called by, after our evening meal it was feet up for some television, the Hungry Sailors, Twister, that had started a new season today, Murdock Mysteries and finally The Chase, 2 more episodes of House of Cards and we were then off to bed.
