PATTAYA, THAILAND, Wednesday, March 12

We arrived at the port of Laem Chabang early in the morning. It's another resort town with lovely hotels and beautiful white sand beaches. This time we didn't go to the beach but stayed in the town. Among many other things, Thailand is known for it's wonderful, inexpensive massages. Gary got a full body massage and I got a foot massage. It cost about $15 for both of us for 1 hour. We had a great chicken fried rice lunch at the Marriott's pool bar which was really gorgeous. I bought Joyce & Stella each a birthday present as they both have birthdays this month.

We didn't go to Bangkok as it's a 2 1/2 hour drive each way. They said that a crane fell into the berth where we were scheduled to dock in Bangkok, so we had to dock far away. To spend 5 hours on a bus and only have 3 hours in Bangkok just wasn't worth it. We have been there before so decided not to do the trip.
