Wish You Were Heeeeeeeeeere…

Relaxation Vacation

I wish all of my friends, including you, my devoted viewers, could join me on my relaxation adventure here on Dongtan Beach, near Pattaya, Thailand. I’m staying at the extremely affordable ($21 a night) DD Inn Guesthouse, just 50 feet off the beach. My typical day consists of waking up around noon, slaving away at my blog, or hanging out at the air conditioned Tuk Com or Central Festival shopping malls where I feast on ice creams and gelatos.

When the heat breaks, around 4 or 5 pm, I take my new Samsung Galaxy S4 Google Play unlocked international version for a photo adventure on the beach. The goal is to see how many cute guys I can get to let me take their picture.

The Farangs Have Gone

In this video, I’m Having a cold Singha, the national beer of Thailand, in the lime green chairs section. The weather is extremely pleasant, a balmy 85 Fahrenheit. Most of the ugly farangs have gone already, except me, 555 (Thai slang for hahaha, or lol).

What’s left are mostly the concession workers, gorgeous local boys, packing up the chairs and tables, and raking the sand clean of stray trash. The sound of them joking, laughing, and giggling like little schoolgirls is music to my ears. They’re generally quite friendly and eager to have me sit in their section, and ham and pose for as many pictures as I like. There’s even a stray dog at the end who comes over to say hello.

Dog Day at Dongtan

Let Sleeping Dogs Lie Where They May

Right? Even if it’s right in front of the door at the 7-11 store. This one’s on the corner of Thap Phraya and Jomtien 5 road, at the entrance to the lovely Dongtan gay beach. Here’s a funny story about a doggone of a time I had trying to purchase breakfast there.

No Need To Bark

This morning, before it turns panting hot, I’m at the 7-11 buying a large yogurt drink, the 22 baht size. A teenage girl with half her hair pulled up on top like a Tibetan temple dog, orders, no, barks at me, to get the small ten baht size. I shrug, and politely try to gesture I want the big one. I can’t understand what Ms. Lion is yapping about, so she hops over the counter and fetches the small one, and scans it in anyway.

Howling Funny

Whatever, I’m not getting into this dogfight at 8am. I hand her the money, and she see’s my perfectly groomed black fingernails with clear glitter overcoat. She giggles, wagging her top-knot back and forth. So I show her the toenails, and she howls with laughter! Every dog has it’s day, right?

Foaming At The Mouth

Any way, I get home, look at the receipt, and notice the small one was on sale for only three baht. Son-of-a-bitch! For half the price I could have had twice as much. Since this bargain hunting spotter can’t be weaned from a good deal, I’m now foaming at the mouth to race back and fill a dog sled full.

Dongtan Darlings

Sawasdee krap from delightful Dongtan Beach, the mostly gay area of Jomtien. It’s just a stone’s throw from Pattaya, Thailand, the “Extreme City”. Believe it or not, after two and a half weeks, I’ve only made it into town just once for a taste of the wild nightlife. At my age, ha-sip-ha (55), everything I need is within a few hundred feet of my lodging at the DD Inn Guesthouse.

Good cheap food, inexpensive shopping, free wifi, massages on the beach, or in the air conditioned parlors, hot and cold running boys, gay bars ranging from sedately friendly to extremely tactile. Just about anything a fifty plus and gay man, trying to age gracefully, or even dis-gracefully, could need or want is right here on Dongtan Beach.

Rub a dub tub, come and join the club of international tourists and expats, enjoying Thailand’s world class hospitality at Dongtan gay beach, where there’s something for everyone.

I manage to amuse myself here with a nightly sunset joy walk, seeing just how many cute guys I can get to let me take their picture.  There’s no shortage of sweet, friendly, sexy guys perfectly happy to indulge me in my lecherous photo adventures. So I hope you’re also amused, dear viewer, thanks so much for also indulging me!

This is “Boy”. I’m serious, his name is Boy. A delightful princess, always with the latest designer swimwear that leaves just enough for your sordid imagination. He stops by to chat for just a bit, asking how you’re doing, sharing something from his day, and then moving along. Not pushy at all like some of the “moneyboys” can be. He works at one of the bars in Jomtien Complex, and I believe he already have boyfriend.

This fun bunch works at the green chairs.

At the end of each day, the boys must rake and sweep their area clean. A perfect photo opportunity to exploit with my new Samsung Galaxy S4, I got it just for this trip. Do you see, even his t-shirt says so.

This is Panchan, from the yellow chairs, who quietly slipped me his phone number after I was seated and ordered my Singha beer. Haven’t used it yet, I think he’s str8.

Not to be outdone, the next day these boys from the lime colored chairs aggressively courted my business, and gave me bend over backwards and forwards service. Hamming and posing for as many pictures, and videos, as I liked.

I asked if I could borrow his hair.

See what I mean? These guys are probably straight also, but in Thailand, it’s all relative.

I like his style, we could go shopping together.

Nat, and “Boy”, work in the bar downstairs at the DD Inn. I’m guessing that half the boys in Dongtan are named “Boy”, 555 (Thai slang for hahaha, or lol).

Boy is adorably demure.

My Thai boyfriend, Ran. I’ve known him for five years now, and affectionately refer to him as my “mechanic”.  I highly recommend him for head and ball adjustments.

Ran is a bit camera shy.

Back again at the bar downstairs, Boy and (name?).

I can’t resist hopping on the back of a motorcycle taxi with a cute driver like this one. He must have known I was a softy, he asked for 80 baht for what is normally a 60 baht ride. I told him ok since your so cute. I gave him 100 ($3.35) altogether, for letting me snap a few pics.

I wanted to give him a, umm, foot massage, but a pic will have to do.

Creepy but sexy at the same time, look how flattering those uniforms make those crotches, Oh!, I mean cops, look!
