We must be almost in the same place as I saw them this morning but must be misremembering exactly where. I thought they were outside the place in your third photo in this post, but they're actually outside the Otteri laundry just further up. https://thailand-247.com/index.php?/topic/1546-what-is-rising-in-pattaya/&do=findComment&comment=326104

Coming down quite heavy now.

And just further along the road there's a total of 58 stalls in this food market with rent starting at 6,500 baht per month (a handful open to date) and probably 20 to 25 at the slightly older one across the road (not yet open). Where are all the customers going to come from?

Not sure what this one is going to be. Here's a couple from this morning. The chequered bits could be bar fronts. Pool table at one end.

It's the mookata place behind Nirun. The one that backs on to Nirun rather than the more established one across the street and where this sign is. Can't show it on streetview as it's so new.

Not sure if it fits under the porn bit of the thread title, but spotted this interesting car this morning in the backstreets of Pattaya. Says "Regal" on the front so is this a Buick Regal?

Half a Siamburi's lasagne with chips.

Despite the pizza oven, I've heard this is going to be a Turkish restaurant.

Just coincidence I received this video this morning and think it fits well in this thread. Stella too I think. beer.mp4

Music festival most weekends in March. https://thepattayanews.com/2024/01/19/pattaya-music-festival-2024-to-take-place-in-march/

On the right hand side of this photo you can just see the edge of a sign advertising for cooks, waiters and dishwashers. It's name translates as Yuri Mookata Buffet and is opposite guess what? Another mookata restaurant.

Burapa bike meeting.

Although it's mentioned above that an onward/return ticket within 30 days is not always required you may end up not getting here at all if it's requested by the check-in agent for your flight. At least prepare access to a dummy or refundable ticket just in case. Regarding the overstay, it may count against you if sometime in the future you apply for an Elite visa as I believe any overstay disqualifies you. Do check this though as i'm not sure where I came across this. A tourist E-visa is an easy option and doesn't take up a page in your passport like a tourist visa used to, as well as removing the onward ticket question.

Special propromotion (sic). From the top down it's Chang, Leo, Singha and Heineken although Google wasn't too good at translating Singha. 3 big bottles for the prices shown.

Finnair?

Should have trimmed a bit more off before taking that tree along there!

Was here for the first time today.

Are you entering on Visa exempt 30 day stamps? The reason I ask is that there was reportedly a sign up by the new scanners saying using them would invalidate any re-entry permit, so no good for those on long stay visas if true.

Steamed shrimp wontons. Marked down in Big C Extra so only 35 baht.

17 years, but driven regularly since I passed my test. 😉

Resize your pics? 19MB would be 177 photos of this quality. And I noticed when I was uploading the 19.53MB limit so it's not just you. Didn't you get a new camera recently?
