I spent some time in Tirana, Albania walking around the city, visiting with the locals, eating the food and shopping. It is a bit economically depressed but the city is alive and vibrant with activity. There is plenty to see if you explore the whole city and the people are friendly. I definitely suggest a visit if you get a chance. Head to Biloku for some entertainment while you're there. This is just one of the many short videos I took while driving around. Watch them all and visit my other Social Media and Travel sites as I develop them. https://wp.me/P3CC9J-6vq Stay tuned for the others.

So, are you looking for an interesting way to get from Bangkok to Pattaya? There doesn't appear to be any meaningful driving laws or speed limits other than try not to run people down or smash into anything. I took a bus from Bangkok’s Ekamai station to Pattaya so I could wander around one of the primary tourist meccas. I spent several weeks tramping around the area, eating, talking to the locals and basically enjoying myself. It's busy most of the day throughout the city and especially on the walking street. There are taxis running around the clock so getting up and down the beach is easy. There are also busses that run from the Jomtien bus station to the airport in Bangkok. It’s inexpensive as well, something like $4 from the airport to Jomtien bus station. There is quite a bit to see in the area, some of it reasonable and some not. If you’re into Buddhist culture and temples there are more than a few to visit. The whole area is designed to keep tourist busy with indoor and outdoor shopping, eating and drinking, hanging out on the beach and other creative ways to burn up time. Although the area isn’t terribly expensive, especially during the off season, if you get out of the tourist areas it’s very reasonable, even cheap. I would go to Pattaya at least once so you can say you went. Here are a few things I'll elaborate on in other videos. Anek Kusala Sala – An elaborate temple you really should see Big Buddha Mountain – A huge image of Buddha on a mountainside Pattaya floating market – an elaborate floating market in pattaya Halloween – a celebration in Pattaya Ko Larn – a tourist mecca off the coast of Pattaya Pattaya flat– where I stayed in Pattaya Jomtien Condo – Another place I stayed and although I referred to it as Pattaya, it was actually in Jomtien Floods in Pattaya – Pattaya flooded while I was there Pattaya street performers – everyone is trying to make a living in Pattaya Pattaya – the city itself This is just one of the many short videos I took while driving around.
