Bisk, I gotta say, I've already been planning on a trip there, but you've convinced me I also need a better f'ing camera. I saw that Sony in the store the other day and wondered about it. I recently got a Sony DSC-T1, which is truly awesome for a camera you can fit in your back pocket, but is truly unawesome compared to your photos. 5 megapixels but if the focus isn't right (which is kinda often) then you just have a really high-res blur. :-) Were you adjusting focus and lighting manually for most of those pics, or were you just pointing and clicking?
awesome pics!! Love the monkey! That is also an awesome camera great quality!!
SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.
I didn't like Hua Hin that much. Way too many tourists everywhere...so I went about 20 minutes north to a small beach town where mainly only the Thai's go to. I found it more rewarding an experience, but then again at that point I had been in Thailand for 6 weeks so I was looking to get off the tourist route as much as possible.
Originally posted by chowda any advice for me. im gonna try to get my ass to bangkok in october.
Yes, don't spend too mucg time in Bangkok. If you want whores you must go to Pattaya.
You want culture... go to Chang Mai, Chang Rai and the surrounding areas. A trip across the border into Burma is fun for a few days.
Temples... They are everywhere but Sukothai is awesome. Wat Arun is in Bangkok. But if your that close hit Cambodia (Siam Reap) and see Ankor Wat, the mother of all Khmer temples.
Beaches... Any island will do. Kho Tao is great if you like to dive. It's small and laid back. Phuket and Samui have night life. Phi phi Don is tranquil... no cars. Krabi area is great. Can't go wrong.
