Time changes when on vacation

Post by Chromeman »

Your feeling of time really starts to change after a couple of weeks on holiday! The days of the week kind of blends into each other... :wink:

So yesterday afternoon I started planning to go to the Magic Balloon Park this afternoon for a flight and then a dinner. And did not remember that today was Friday, and that I already had made plans to take the Firefly cruise until I read the email this morning about todays pickup time... :oops:

The one time I felt the time changes (for a lower pace) was when I spent a week on Koh Samet, the days consisted of breakfast, daytime snorkling, afternoon looong dinner, romantic sex, repeated for 6 days.

I really winded down, cannot recall ever felt so relaxed and always thought of a repeat.

Otherwise it sounds like you have the luxury problem of abundance of things to do. Maybe it reflects the quality of Hua Hin as a location to reside?
Not sure hhfarang would agree though - it sounds like he has exhausted them in his time here.

Be fair. Being on holiday and living here full time are two completely different experiences.
This is the way

^ Yes a 10 year holiday (in one place) may sound wonderful to some (if not most), but I ran out of things to be interested at about 5 years in. :cheers:
My brain is like an Internet browser; 12 tabs are open and 5 of them are not responding, there's a GIF playing in an endless loop,... and where is that annoying music coming from?

Yes, I can understand. That's why I bring http://www.amazon.com, Sky Sports and Sky News with me where ever I go. These diversions is not only against the place I am but also aginst the boredom of me being me.
