Ditto. Glad I didn't even venture into town either.

Don't really want to see the horses, the tourists, the temple, or the beaches. I prefer the small Sai Noi Beach just minutes from my house. As for merit making, I don't bother. My ticket was punched years ago,

So crowds of visitors over the New Year break and now they’ve returned home restaurants are no longer permitted to serve locals, and returning visitors, alcohol with their meals, I wonder if there’s a connection?
