Two guys visiting from the USA get a big surprise when they attempt to leave Thailand. It amazes me the stupidity of some people when visiting Thailand. When I read about this all I could do it just shake my head in disbelief.
History on Wat Prasat ninenovel.net/2019/08/17/wat-...
A nice walk through the Old City the Thai s here are so friendly . Walk though Wat Prasat, then through the back streets .

Rather Miller. As an US America but never been able to travel to Asian countries. Americans in general are very rude when visiting other countries for I have to several as a tech rep in the aviation industry. For me France is the worst country I had to be for 6 weeks. The French totally hate Americans. Before covid-19 I was scheduled to visit Thailand, Vietnam, Philippines and China. Many boys go to Thailand and Philippines to visit to play with little girls and drink so much and get in fights etc. Most are from the US, Germany, UK, and Australia. Formerly I corresponded with a lady in Chiang mia but covid-19 stopped me from meeting. I hope those jerks never travel out of the home country.

Thank you @Unseen Thailand In Chiang Mai for bringing this issue up. A 5,000 Baht fine may mean nothing to the persons committed this disgraceful offense; and they are probably laughing about it now. Wat Arun is clssified as "First Class Royal Temple and is a Wor-Ra-Ma-Ha-Wi-Han type" built nearly 400 years ago. There are only 6 of these First Class Royal Temples in Thailand, so they all are extremely near and dear to all Thais' hearts and souls. As a Thai we love and welcome all tourists from all walks of life with open arms. I humbly implore all the guests coming to this beautiful contry to respect our cultures.

Bill, Consequences ! Most Countries do not like Americans for a reason. The ‘Ugly American’. They were very fortunate. I have been to Countries where they would have been killed ! Bill, you are always friendly, courteous, and respectful ! I had a problem one time at a Temple Festival. I was taking pictures of the food at the food vendors. This Thai man started yelling at me. I stayed calm and took him back to the large table with my Wife and her friends. He was concerned that some stupid Farang was going to post tasteless pictures on the internet about the Temple and Thailand. My wife and her friends explained to him that he had nothing to worry about, that I was part of the community. He ended up buying me a beer and profusely apologized for getting upset. Stay Safe, and Stay Blessed ! Cheers,

It is often unappreciated that the “ugly American “was a compliment. “The "Ugly American" of the book title refers to the book's hero, plain-looking engineer Homer Atkins, whose "calloused and grease-blackened hands always reminded him that he was an ugly man." Atkins, who lives with the local people, comes to understand their needs, and offers genuinely useful assistance with small-scale projects such as the development of a simple bicycle-powered water pump.”

Hi Bill. I can drive a motorcycle but can not sit on back without quickly getting leg pain or leg cramps. I’ll ride my motorcycle all over BoSang this coming September or October. I plan on going to Sunday night market September 4th and that may be the only time that I’ll ride my bicycle the 20 minutes to the city center, because of parking. BoSang has its own Sunday market. It’s a lot smaller and usually, I’m the only foreigner there.

I wear a cap because I'm bald. I lived in Pennsylvania for twenty years and the main question I got asked was, "Are you a Jew or a welder?" I am neither but I would be happy to be either. I travelled around the world for the first time in my thirties, a long time ago, and a buddy gave me a welder's cap covered with stars and stripes so I made him an album of photographs of me, wearing the cap everywhere. Tower Bridge, the Pyramids, Petra, the Gateway to India, Bombay, Bodnath, Kathmandu, the royal palace, Bangkok, Pagan in Burma, the former American embassy in Saigon (which I might have been arrested for), the Limpopo River in Mozambique, and a lot of other places. He loved it. If you want to see my butt, that's a special interest site that I could give you a link to.

Hi, Bill. If you have a chance on one of your walks, could you do me what would be great favor? I have a friend whom I haven't seen in 3 years. She owns a cute little Coffee shop in the old city, however I believe she had moved to a different location, and I'm really curious to see if she is still open during these difficult times. Her name is Bella, and her shop is called "Easy Easy Coffee" I sent her a cute blue & white Apron with polka-dots from here in the States as a gift. She is incredibly lovely and sweet, and I would love to know if she is doing well. I believe her new location is by the Police Station (เลขที่ 1 Jhaban Rd, Tambon Si Phum, Mueang Chiang Mai District). I would be so incredibly grateful for this, and to see if she's still up and running and doing well. 🙏🏾😊

Many of these foreign nationals who make fools of themselves, either don't know or don't care what a headache they make for their country's diplomats who have to sort their mess. I wonder how they would feel if there was a bill waiting for them (at the airport)when they returned home, for the waste of taxpayers' time and effort by the embassy staff.

Not defending these dim wits but your comment about taxpayers money is off base regarding the embassy. That’s one of the reasons we are taxed out the butt regardless where we live in the world, because we supposedly have such great embassy support. One of the few countries to do so. I lost my passport, credit cards, money. Everything in Vietnam a few years ago. Got almost no help. They initially accused me of selling my passport on the black market. I was pissed. Took me a week to receive a temporary passport so I could return to Thailand. On the other hand my Thai girl received her documents from the Thai consulate in 2 hours. Terrible service by our bureaucrats.
