Brian was able to get us a great deal for a truck taxi to bring the six of us back to the hotel, 60 baht ($2). We all piled in and set off for our rooms. Half way there the driver, a very elderly man, stopped to take another look at the directions we had given him by looking at it by the light from his head lights. When he saw the six of us in the back, he muttered something about having to pay 120 baht for the six of us. At the hotel, he then demanded the 120 baht. The following "conversation" included the driver, different members of our party, the night security, the lobby receptionist, and another hotel guest.
You will have to ask us how that went.
Yesterday we were checking out, and headed to Hua Hin. Before leaving town we made one last trip to get some of our group massages, and some lunch before embarking on our overnight train trip.
Lunch didn't end so good. We knew we had a small window to eat and pick up our luggage before heading to the train station. We let the waiter know this, and the ordering serving and getting the bill, all ended on a bad note, because our waiter miscommunicated what we could order, and didn't understand our need to have a quick lunch.
Needless to say, he wasn't happy with us. That's when we knew it was time to move on.
