Always something to see in Pattaya Beach

Strange amusing sights Pattaya Beach

Strange amusing sights Pattaya Beach, that is an understatement, this post is dedicated to showing you some of the weird and amusing things I come across nearly every day. The drainage system in Pattaya and most of Thailand is no match for the torrential Tropical storms. However as you can see in the photo above it does not deter the dedicated local beer drinkers.

Here is my live webcam from my balcony overlooking Pattaya beach in Thailand.

Nothing stops the Baht bus.

This was taken in Pattaya south rd in front of Tukcom.

Houston, we have a problem.

Two weeks ago a section of the new footpath on Beach rd collapsed due to the storms. They laid new concrete and repaired it, then planted two large palm trees. I guess the Thais think concrete sets hard immediately, (in reality it takes 28 days) however the weight of the palms was too much for the new base with is only about 2.5 inches thick. Well the picture tells the story, “BANG, CRASH, BOOM,” back to where they started.

Here is an update, the same section just collapsed again for the 3rd time.

After the storm.

Some cleaning up is required.

Not a pretty sight.

Between Wongamat and Pattaya.

Beer drinking Germans

You gotta love the Germans, they are so organised they buy the beer that reflects their build.





Sexy beach babes, I don’t think so.

I bet she is asking the question women all over the world are concerned about, “does my bum look big in this?”

Chick Magnet

He waltzed into town and sent all the local girls into a frenzy.

OK, Ok, I realise you need to see more.

I think he was only in town for a week or two, who knows how many hearts he broke when he left?

Always something to see on Beach Rd.

I walk down beach road every morning and there is always something unusual to see, hansum man? I don’t think so. 🙂

Three cool dudes on Beach road.

This is one of my favorite photos on Beach road, the three amigos.

Cute pups in Soi 3 North Pattaya

Great looking dogs.

Beach Road Babushkas.

I am told many super models smoke to help keep their weight under control, clearly in this case it has not worked.

8.30 am & time for a rest

Our Pattaya street cleaner decided she needed a rest, after all it is 8.30 am.

Master electrician at work

Workplace health & safety is not a high priority in Thailand, however there is a guy holding the ladder 😆

Not the leaning tower of Pisa

It’s the leaning pole of Pattaya. 🙂

Beach road bride

Why pay for a photographer when you can do it yourself?

Thirty degrees & no refrigeration.

I’m not sure how far this guy travels with these baby pigs in the 30 degree heat, I just think packing them in ice may be a good idea.

While on the subject of pigs

Here is typical Thai street kitchen roasting a pig, he sells portions for 100 Baht or $3. If the police tell him to move he will simply set up around the corner. 😆

Two are better than one.

Too many roast pigs is never enough.

Not another roast pig?

As you have guessed by now roast pork is hugely popular in Thailand, in fact every time someone in a beer bar has a birthday you can be certain a huge pig will be roasting on the spit to celebrate.

Thai people will eat anything

These are bugs, grubs & grasshoppers, I have never been brave enough to sample them.

Strange amusing sights Pattaya Beach Thai butcher

This almost convinces me to turn into a vegetarian. 😕

Spiderman in Pattaya.

I used to see this guy jogging every morning along beach road, he has a very unusual action. I have seen him for months, I hope he is still alive and kicking.

Strange amusing sights Pattaya Beach 23 stories high without a safety net.

Workplace safety is really not a priority in Pattaya, this guy is cleaning windows on a new hotel Siam @ Siam 23 stories in the air.
