Most exciting thing you have done in Thailand

[bignok]

What is it? 

[KhunLA]

Going to have to go with 'unique & different' ...

... Bungy jump

 

Best thing ... get adopted by our daughter.  Going to be pretty hard to beat that.

 

Fulfilling, satisfying things:

... finally getting that snapshot

... building drones, and they fly

... converting pedal to e-bike was pretty cool

"most exciting thing..."

Oh yes! It involved my girlfriend, me, and two Nana Plaza gogo girls in my bed in Bangkok!

How strange. My “most exciting thing“ also included your girlfriend and two gogo girls.

BB on soi 6

clap clinic 10 days later killed the initial excitement.

would go again though...

Getting on a scooter at age 68, having never ridden one before.

I have dual Thai and Australian motorbike and car licences.

I'm still here accident-free, so I must be doing something right.

Went swimming last Saturday. Saw an Asian guy floating in the sea, head down. Looked strange. Tipped him on the shoulder after 30 seconds. His body turned over, exposing puffy, bloodshot eyes. Pulled him out of the water. Ambulance arrived after 20 minutes.

 

Read later online that he was Thai and was resuscitated at the hospital.

OK, scratch Bungee jumping, as this reminds me, I pulled 3 kids (alive ????) out of the surf on Phuket.  Talk about a sense of purpose after decades of me me me.

[Yellowtail]

I pulled four kids and their grandmother out of a burning temple and suffered third-degree burns on my feet.

Yep, simply getting O&A, that Asian flare, so different than all those years in USA, unless visiting ChinaTown in any large metro.   Then same same, not that different ????

 

IF visiting other countries in N America (not Canada), then same same as TH, not that different, as economic and income disparity, provides the same environment as here.  Mexico, Caribbean having the same local vibe, just people look different, non Asian and food a bit different.

Maybe I should say touring the rest of the Thailand.

Not cities, I hate cities.

You have a driver?

I drive myself. Perhaps you are under the impression I got dual licences just to frame them.

 

And here's me thinking stupid questions don't exist.

Sneer humor might rate with you, it doesn't with me. I'll bet you enjoyed Seinfeld.

Yeah OK and liked my oldie place I stayed at for 350.

200 metres from lake. 

Had some beers in bar/restaurant overlooking the lake.

Nice roads out that way. 

Will be doing a bike trip again there sometime for sure.
