We Were Up Early Again,

so straight on to today's post, 


 first thing the bugmen called,

 as soon as they were finished we were off,

 to Soi 5 Jomtien to the Immigration Office,

 there was hardly anyone there, we received our tickets and found our number first on the board, straight in and out again in no time at all,

 we popped home to drop our passports off then out again for breakfast, we were caught in a bit of traffic so I took a picture of this mobile food seller,

 I parked in the Friendship car park as Diana went opposite to have some passport pictures taken,

 whilst waiting I took a picture of the lottery ticket sellers on the steps of the building,

 next stop Walking Street,

 we parked the bike and made our way along the street,

 going past most probably the most photographed car in Thailand,

 at the entrance to one of the bars,

 under the sign,

 and on to the footpath beside the bars that leads to the Pattaya Beer Garden, the new drainage system now finished so no more flooding on Beach Road,

 under the sign and in we go,

 looking towards Bali Hai pier, work still stopped on the new building there,

 we then spotted something we had never seen in Pattaya beach before,

 some herons, we had seen then in other beach resorts and inland, but never here on the beach in Pattaya,

 they certainly liked the new drainage construction as that was where they were going to,


then a real first for both of us,

 we had never seen seagulls anywhere in Thailand, but here they were, a real first for us,

 one of the herons made it's way past again,

 as I took a few more pictures of the seagulls, 

 our food arrived,

 I ordered a bacon, tomato, lettuce sandwich as I was not that hungry, but did not expect the huge pile of chips as well all for 130 baht,

 sliders for Diana,

 and a ice coffee to chill things down, it was so hot even this early in the morning,

 bill paid and we made our way through the restaurant,

 into the street and off we went,

 stopping to pick up Diana's passport pictures,

 soon it was glad rags on as Mr. Tony picked us up and we parked at Cherry's,

 a mobile candy floss seller walked past as we were going in,

and this was what we were here for, the 450 baht International buffet,

mushroom or tom yung goong soup to start,

 a selection form the salad bar,

 plus a huge number of starters, 

 salmon, yummy!

 there are 18 or so heated dishes,

 plus a carvery and pizza station,

 moving on, desserts,

 lots of them,

 we started at the salad bar,

 and a few individual starters,

 'Cheers!',

 next main courses,

 this was Diana's selection,

 for myself I decided on another few pieces of sushi,

 we followed with desserts,

and coffees all round, Mr. Tony kindly dropped us off at home, after saying our farewells we settled down to some Judge Judy and then it was time for bed.
