After having visited Bangkok, Cha-Am, Chiang Mai, Hua Hin, Krabi, Phi Phi Island, Phuket and Pattaya, I have to say that Pattaya is best, maybe not a paradise, but a kind of Disney world for retired men: wonderful food, weather and women, and everything at bargain prices!

Pattaya
After having visited Bangkok, Cha-Am, Chiang Mai, Hua Hin, Krabi, Phi Phi Island, Phuket and Pattaya, I have to say that Pattaya is best, maybe not a paradise, but a kind of Disney world for retired men: wonderful food, weather and women, and everything at bargain prices!

Thailand visit winter 2011
I left Finland 14th of November on a Finnair flight to Bangkok. I arrived in Bangkok the next morning 15th. Then I tried the new train that leaves from under the airport and goes to the city center. Then I traveled one stop with the sky train to Victory monument, where I took a van to Hua Hin. I stayed 3 days in a guesthouse there. I had the penthouse room, fifth floor, with a view over the sea and Hilton hotel on the other side.
Then I moved to Cha-Am, staying one night in Casa Papaya, and then changed to the Cha-Am Little Shop & Resort, where I stayed almost one week.
I had a meeting with Helena and Pekka in Hua Hin, and I also met Markku there.
In Cha-Am I met Baaba, Make, Reetu, Jussi and Pariya.
Then I returned to Bangkok and took a train to Chiang Mai. The journey took 12 hours, and the first 3 hours you could imagine you were travelling in a boat, because the flood water was seen everywhere.
I stayed in Chiang Mai almost a week, in Chiang Mai White House Guesthouse. I really liked it there, it was cool and even the streets were clean.
December 2nd I took a Thai Airways flight to Phuket, stayed one night in On On hotel there.
Then I took a boat to Phi Phi Islands, stayed also there only one night.
And this morning I came with a boat to Krabi Town, and I am staying in Krabi Nature View Guesthouse, with a beautiful view to the river. And I met Jeff from Kansas, who is staying in this same guesthouse. Jeff has a red sailing boat on the river near by.
Here are some photos from this trip.
