Sue and I lived in Thailand in 1973 while in the US Air Force. There we established a life long friendship with Dave and Cindy Ford. I just found this video!
It very-very interesting to watch these old videos filmed long before Thailand become super-popular mass-tourism destination. Now millions tourists everywhere and Thai people changed a lot.
@Cliff Yablonski my kind of man...get a pound cleaned and put in cigarette packs for four dollars...sticks cost us 50 cents...but hey...who is complaining...
Junk Food Man Channel thanks for the info. Yes, I guess there will be foreigners (and Thais) who have over extended themselves and are struggling to pay to mortgage on an empty condo , where tourists won’t be coming back any time fast. Cash is king in this situation.
Thanks for your comments guys ❤️ so please please enjoy in your life 🙏 🙏 because when I was young i did that so be happy always even you are sad . Regards
I was in India at this time and on my way to Thailand but didnt get there..the person I was supposed to meet had developed a bad 'habit'....looks like not much has changed
I was stationed at U-Tapao Jun 73- Jun 74 and after the bombing halt it was like stateside duty so I brought my wife and kids over and we lived in Pattaya for 9 months. When got ready to leave our momasan wanted us to leave our boys there since we were going COT to Spain she didn't want our kids to go to a foreign country lol .
I was @ Takhli in 72 and lived in town, and yes you could get Kow Phad(fried rice), for a nickle and Cokes for the same... and all came in baggies with a rubber band around the top so that you could hang them on nails around the hooch (no tables or chairs). Was weird but practical...you got used to it...myself and two other guys lived in the compound behind the Mustang bar...with about 14 girls who worked the bars...just the girls, Momasan and Papasan and us three G.I.'s do not remember how we got so lucky...T-Sticks were fifty cents...the good ol' days...stereos...clothes...everything super cheap...I smile every time I think of those days...we could rent a boat (more like a barge) lawn chairs and take six of the girls, float the Nakhonsawan river all day for six green backs...if I only had the time and the space....I would probably get arrested...
