I don't know jack about "the dark side". But I do know enough that I would prefer finding something in Nakula or Jomtien before the d.s. (no offense to anyone who may live there).
So.... There is some sort of big "festival" going on this weekend in Patts ? Never heard of it before.
Geezus Freaking Christ - back to back with Songkran. Cluster
Cheeers.
That one is high on the list.... Having the power go out and all of the area hotels are booked up and the malls closed. Friggen nightmare !
* I suppose an option could be to go to the airport and sit it out.
