Namrin in Pattaya for foam party and more

Hello,

I'm back. Actually this album should my SCUBA diving trip that I did in July but occasionally, I make an express way for my own favour lol. Surely next album will be underwater photos with sharks and more! Pls stay tune!

There are quite a lot of photos as it is 2-day activities. The main purpose to come to Pattaya this time is to go to the foam party at Hard Rock Hotel with Ploy (my friend who lives in Pattaya). Sound interesting, huh? But before we explore how the foam party like. Let's go through the story step by step.

I don't know what happened to my life but this is the second time in a month that I had to wait for my friend for a very long time. How long? It's only one and a half hour. The worst record was 2 hours and a bit!! My question is why it had to occur within a month? I try to think that it's time to pay back for myself being late a bit here and there to other people (if you believe in Karma). Colin, Ploy's boyfriend, drove me to Pattaya. Thanks Colin even though I had to wait for quite a long while but I'm not angry. We arrived at noon and went straight for lunch. After that, Ploy told me that she and her elder sister would like to go to the temple to release some fish and birds back to nature. It's a good deed Thai Buddists do. I don't know whether I have ever really done that as I'm not practically religious. Anyhow, I joined Ploy's sister and her sister's friends. I felt great after doing a good thing! We bought eels, a few types of fish and frogs or toads and free them in a big pond in a temple. I hope they are all fine and won't be fished back to the market :-)

Next stop, we passed the Silver Lake which is a grapes farm. They sell the grapes' products here and also built a resort for people who travels to Pattaya. It's mountaineous with a huge lake and nice flower garden. I didn't feel like I was in Pattaya which is a beach city. It's like I'm in North of Thailand, hahaha. Nice views with some pretty girls there!!

Then, our main activity is here! We went to Hard Rock Hotel where they hold the foam party every Saturday. It was really crazy and fabously fun. Dress Code: swimwear, bikinis, spaghetti tops, shorts, you get the idea, don't you? I don't remember how long we were in the foam pool but seemed like a few hours. It closed at 1AM and that was the time we left, hahaha! After the foam pool, we jump into a swimming pool to get rid of the foam from our bodies and then played water basketball with other hotel's guests. I did score one but Ploy, Colin and P' Kay (Ploy's friend) didn't see it! Oh, NOOO!!! That was my impressive shot! How could you guys miss it?? D'oh!! lol

It rainned in BKK and other provinces around but it didn't rain in Pattaya throughout this weekend. Told you I bring my own SUNSHINE! LOLOLOL ;-) It was great weather and kinda too hot actually. I woke up late after a long night. After lunch, we went to the go-kart circuit. This is also my call, lol. Something I fancy doing in Pattaya :-D To be honest, I'm not a master driver but you know the thing that you like doesn't need to go into the same direction as the thing you are good at. i.e. a big football fan doesn't have to play football brilliantly, right? Just like that :-D It was a great excitement when driving on the circuit. And when you hear the sound of go-kart engines, I just can't imagine how it would be if this was Formula 1 racing.....Feel good! I was not quite racing with my friends. There are a few other people driving in the same round too. And I have to say wow! They were fast and furious. Two are Westerners and 1 are Thai guy and one of the girls in our group, she drove very well too. Those were on a race lol. Ploy, Colin, I and if there were a few more, we just leisurely drove LOL but still didn't have time to enjoy the view of the trees and the pond. Everything seemed to be quick and I needed concentration, and we were so close to the ground!! And that is exciting and challenging you can feel!

That's all for now. Coming up next...let's go under water (go under me-Nam!! hehe :-P)
