Eyeless in Buriram, wherein your fat Humble Correspondent slithers through Buriram and ponders where to go next.....

Ladies, I just got back from Buriram.

 

Nice place. The ruins are fab:

The ladies are lovely (this is just a random chick) even though I didnt locate either the chicken shacks or the bar girl acadamy, but no mind, just wandering around made me feel like prey, especially with the *acronym for hot single mothers in early 30s* who peopled the coffee shops wherein I could refuel with Cha Manaos and who when spying me started the mantra of whereyoufromAmerikahehhhhhHHHHyouhaveThailadyNoEhhhhhHHHHHHHHH all the while eyeing the wallet area of your fat sweating bearded humble correspondent lumbering around with a backpack and camera, and dudes, let me tell you, it was Rawn makmak humping around, stuff is spread out and while wheels give one mobility, the best view of the nitty gritty of life is to toss on your ruck and get into the ***t but up there, just to explore the town, you will put 10 plus miles in,

 

And Im not even counting all the steps in the ruins because the ancients in their wisdom decreed that a good workout is necessary before some sacrficial ceremony, and they were short back them too and didnt have plumb bobs, or maybe the ground has settled, but the steps are kindof of built for little flat feet not falang floppers in hiking boots, plus it is sooooooo freaking hot, make sure you carry water there isnt a coffee shop every 100 meters. Plus you have a 60 klick ride there, the hotels can arrange it, I got a while day (8-4) for 2500 with a tip for the kid who was actually a damn good driver.

 

They rip you off for local wheels, everyhting in town is basically 60-100. I stayed at the Best Western, its about 800M from the bus station, about 2 klicks from the Train station and falangville, fourish klicks from the Stadium. The arena is super nice, built like a Western venue, they just dont sell enough food outside...Im looking around saying where is the charcoal smoke, its kind of upscale compared to those of us who burrow in the mud of the Port and Khlong Toei where ya dodge the rats to get to the Moo Ping and a ticket cost 180B (thats the upscale price) compared to the 600baht they nail you for at Ichang for a billet, but you have far more exclusivity with folks wearing their badges and eating the free Amari catered noodles and Shu mai,  but not inside the venue where it is all polite noise and suchlike, unlike PAT where you can scream and yell and beat drums whilst slobbering beers and grilled squids. Lots of Port fans were there, I didnt see any beat downs either so I probably could have worn my Port kit, I saw a bunch of Thai dudes I know from matches here, hey, did I metion my essential greatness in scoring a ticket, here, viz, I know some cheap charlies will squeal but hey, when you are a VIP in your own mind, you need to hang in the correct crowd ducky, he look, its the center of the "pitch" or whatver stupid thing you call it, you USA dudes, seats on the 50:

Stayed in the Best Western, $30 a night and worth every $$. Clean comfortable room,Awesome pool, great staff, fab breakfast (one morning I had grilled pork with mushroom sauce and an omelet, my gawd, take me now) tons of expats fatter than me with their smaller boobed older Thai wives and toddling/preteen hybrid rugrats, dude, 70 years old drinking a Chang at 9am whilst watching your 7 year old splash in the pool is not a fate I wish on myself, Ill stay fat, disgusting and single, its bad enough that I have to see myself naked but seeing saggy flabby fat falangs in marblebags parading around was not the high point of my trip, one of which high points were the steaks at a joint called "Olis" near the Bus station, French dudes typical open air bar that was spotlessly clean with a hot waitress and cook and one the best 590 Baht tenderloin steak I have had this side of the pond, in fact, better than 2000 baht steaks I have eaten in BKK, done perfectly too, with herbed fries or chips as you call them in Blighty, viz:

I did not hit any "nightlife" places for you guys who are waiting for that report.

 

And of course, for you negative nancies, I had a fab time hanging out with all sorts of cool Thai people. Of course, they always ask "you have Thai lady?"

 

I got some killer pics, Ill post the culls here and there.

 

My next question is whither I goest nexus?

 

Loy Krathong? Recommendations?

Surin Elephant Roundup? Any thing anyone want to tell me about Surin?

It must be somewhere over there.

 

When I meet a brown cute girl in Bangkok and I ask her where she comes from I know already most of the time the answer will be: Buriram.

Whatever they do over there, they do it right. ????

I probably need to make my reservations now. The issue is train or fly. Its a 7 hour train run if I leave at 5:45 am and thats a rough ride. Especially with a weak bladder. Or I can just spend the almost 3 large to fly instead of the 1000 on the train. But then I have to fly. I hate flying. Unless I go to KK or something first, to break up the train ride. Or someone gives me a ride? hey who wants to go!

 

There is a Speed in Buriram. I didnt go. The ruins wiped me out.
