freaking hell man, just check the internet, found that the distance between kanchanaburi to pattaya is around 400+km. now having second thoughts of driving there...

hehehe. 400 km is really nothing here lah. dont believe? ask froggy lah. easily clocked that in 1 morning.

have to get use to long distance driving.

about 4 to 4.5 hours of driving, not that bad

 

[Froggy]

Yaaaa 400km is just average. Not too far and not too near.

May the (dark) force be with you :p Is your visitor staying in soi buakhao, having late mornings (and nights) too?

agreed, its almost the same distance from sg to kl. but but but.... i first time driving such a long distance journey in thailand, somemore must pass thru bangkok, a bit scared leh... the way i see bangkok people drive is worse than sg.

all i can rely on this journey is a GPS. so bro chonburi, if u never see me latest in 23rd this month, it means that instead of going pattaya, i go holland.

if really not confident, i think i just take mini van go better.

Always 1st time. Also think you can bypass Bkk on the highway to Patts. Only thing I'd advise is to avoid driving at nights. Not done Kachanaburi part, but I've driven Bkk/Chonburi (to Bangsen, Patts), done Hua Hin (2.5-3 hrs ex Bkk) and also CNX/LPT countless (snaky mountain drive 100kms, but nothing like Joety's Pai do). Like you at 1st instant, was kinda hesitant... but you'll get over it soon

Looong sloooow unhurried drive is relaxing and therapeutic for the soul so something Sinkieland cannot offer. I'll say go for it.

likely if i'm driving, we will set out around 10 plus from kanchanaburi. song wise, not to worry, i have lots of them from chinese to thai to euro dance.

mainly go pattaya is for 2 things:

1. go see chonburi cos last dec never go due to lost iphone. must go this trip and eat all the food i want.

2. i just love pattaya, esp the food and atmosphere! overall, its a tourist place, but, if u venture inland, u can find many other things to see too. i think i mentioned that there's a mini siam there etc..

yo bro joetys, got any spare GPS can lend me? i stingy dont want go buy

yo bro chonburi, can per order my menu first or not? we (my wife and i) love club sandwiches... and i love runny eggs!!
