This might save your life one day like it did mine!

This hotel is on second road which forces my wife and I to cross the road several times a day. My favorite part of crossing the road is standing on the center line waiting for traffic to clear as vehicles whiz by in both directions. While waiting I place my hand in the small of her back and give a playful nudge as if to push her into the speeding cars. In response she will look up at me and say "Oh, you love me too much - you want me to die first, huh ?" Bonding while crossing the street !

Normally dangerous but chuck in the Christmas tourists and it definitely is a hearting stopping road to cross. A baht bus is a far safer choice. <abbr><em>Hoo Dons last blog post..<a href="http://www.thaisabai.org/?p=1969" rel="nofollow">Sands Of Time</a></abbr></em> I think the saying ” A wing and a prayer ” originated from 2nd Road Pattaya.
