  1. Do a google search about Giardiasis and see if you may have it. see a Doctor and have your stools tested for parasites.

    Giardiasis is common in Thailand. I got it just by drinking the water from the hotel in Bangkok. It was in the Tap water the hotel was using to fill the jugs in the rooms. I only will drink bottled water now.

  3. Wow somebody reopend my 3 year old post, The wife and I moved to Banpong in 2008 and stayed a year. we missed the Grandkids and all the coveniences of living in the US so we moved back to the States. But we do miss The Friends we made in Thailand, Derek, Jan , Alan and all the Thai friends. we plan to visit next year.

    reboks if you want to know about what to see or were to stay just ask Derek-c, he knows Ratchaburi better than most Thais. :)

  4. Situation:

    Wife is Thai by birth..

    She is Australian by naturalisation..

    She holds both Thai and australian passports.

    I was present at a meeting last year in Sydney of Thais and guest speaker was the Thai Consulate-General.

    When asked by member of the audience what to do in case similar to my wife's status when travelling to Thailand.

    He said depart and arrive in Australia on Australian passport. Arrive and depart Thailand on Thai passport.

    He was emphatic that this was the right thing to do.

    In fact, my wife has followed this practice for over 9 years. Have never once been queried on arrival by Thai Immigration.

    My wife has been doing the same when traveling to Thailand from the USA for the last 7 years with no problems.

  5. Two blondes living in Oklahoma were sitting on a bench talking, and one blonde says to the other, "Which do you think is farther away... Florida or the moon?"

    The other blonde turns and says "Helloooooooooo, can you see Florida ?????"

    T-SHIRT

    A blonde goes over to her friend's house wearing a T.G.I.F. Tee-shirt.

    'Why are you wearing a 'Thank God It's Friday' tee-shirt on Monday?'

    'Oh crap!' the blonde says. 'I didn't realize it was a religious t-shirt. I thought it meant 'Tits Go In Front.''

    CAR TROUBLE

    A blonde pushes her BMW into a gas station. She tells the mechanic it died.

    After he works on it for a few minutes, it is idling smoothly.

    She says, "What's the story?"

    He replies, "Just crap in the carburetor"

    She asks, "How often do I have to do that?"

    SPEEDING TICKET

    A police officer stops a blonde for speeding and asks her very nicely if he could see her license.

    She replied in a huff, "I wish you guys would get your act together. Just yesterday you take away my license and then today you expect me to show it to you!"

    RIVER WALK

    There's this blonde out for a walk. She comes to a river and sees another blonde on the opposite bank. "Yoo-hoo!" she shouts, "How can I get to the other side?"

    The second blonde looks up the river then down the river and shouts back, "You ARE on the other side."

    AT THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE

    A gorgeous young redhead goes into the doctor's office and said that her body hurt wherever she touched it.

    "Impossible!" says the doctor. "Show me."

    The redhead took her finger, pushed on her left shoulder and screamed, then she pushed her elbow and screamed even more. She pushed her knee and screamed;

    likewise she pushed her ankle and screamed. Everywhere she touched made her scream.

    The doctor said, "You're not really a redhead, are you?

    "Well, no" she said, "I'm actually a blonde."

    "I thought so," the doctor said. "Your finger is broken."

    KNITTING

    A highway patrolman pulled alongside a speeding car on the freeway. Glancing at the car, he was astounded to see that the blonde behind the wheel was knitting!

    Realizing that she was oblivious to his flashing lights and siren, the trooper cranked down his window, turned on his bullhorn and yelled, "PULL OVER!"

    "NO!" the blonde yelled back, "IT'S A SCARF!"

    BLONDE ON THE SUN

    A Russian, an American, and a Blonde were talking one day. The Russian said, "We were the first in space!"

    The American said, "We were the first on the moon!"

    The Blonde said, "So what? We're going to be the first on the sun!"

    The Russian and the American looked at each other and shook their heads. "You can't land on the sun, you idiot! You'll burn up!" said the Russian.

    To which the Blonde replied, "We're not stupid, you know.. We're going at night!"

    IN A VACUUM

    A blonde was playing Trivial Pursuit one night. It was her turn. She rolled the dice and she landed on Science & Nature. Her question was, "If you are in a vacuum and someone calls your name, can you hear it?"

    She thought for a time and then asked, "Is it on or off?"

    FINALLY, THE BLONDE JOKE TO END ALL BLONDE JOKES!

    A girl was visiting her blonde friend, who had acquired two new dogs, and asked her what their names were. The blonde responded by saying that one was named Rolex and one was named Timex. Her friend said, "Whoever heard of someone naming dogs like that?"

    "HELLLOOOOOOO......," answered the blond. "They're watch dogs!"

  6. Another completely worthless poll

    yes indeed, it is

    You don't follow the news, do you? There are many people calling for Abhisit not only to dissolve the parliament but ALSO to step down.

    Yes I do know the news and what see is its not going to happen any time soon. There are many people calling for the Goverment to take a tougher stand and start aresting Red shirts who are not following the LAW. so there is trouble ahead.

  7. When my wife got her US Citizenship she was not ask to renounce her thai citizenship and she did not notify the Thai goverment.

    and yes as others has stated when traveling between the US and Thailand, Handel your passport as you did your Green card, My wife has with no problems. and congratulations on getting your US Citizenship

  8. My Thai Wife got her US citizenship 5 years ago after living in the US for 31 years, we traveled to Thailand soon afterwards and she renewed her Thai Passport in Bangkok. we now travel to and from Thailand once a year with no Problems, she also owns land in her home town in Thailand. The last time we were in Thailand she even voted in her village election and she also recives old age pension of 500 Baht :)

    so legal or not ? it is being allowed

  9. It should be noted that, according to CDR Matthew B. Ashley, Defense Attaché US Embassy Bangkok, Phukets new U.S. Navy League is responsible for the change from Pattaya to Phuket as the location chosen by the US Navy on R&R in Thailand. Every time you hear about Phuket's economy getting in infusion of cash from the sailors of visiting warships, it's thanks to a few volunteers that recently formed the Southern Seaboard Council U.S. Navy League, who also volunteer alongside the sailors at the various community relations functions. (Painting schools and such)
