Too lazy to post...almost

We spent Saturday morning bumming around in our room, watching TV and willing our belongings to jump into the suitcases themselves, counting the minutes until checkout at 12.  We had a taxi booked for our final destination at midday also because we've grown a little tired of sitting around in hotel foyers' waiting for time to pass.

For Tony's reward for suffering holiday boot camp for the past 3 weeks I'd booked the last 6 days of our vacation at our all time favourite hotel.  We stayed here at the Centara Grande Mirage in Pattaya only 9 months ago but it was so amazing we wanted to come back here and also to share it with Mum and Dad.  Mums birthday will be spent here so what better reason to take the 2 hour drive down to the coast.



We arrived in Pattaya a little after 1.30 pm, and 10 minutes after that were bumming around in the club lounge having a light lunch.  We decided to book club rooms this time so we could enjoy all day drinks and snacks.  Soon after our delicious soup and sandwiches we were pool bound for the rest of the arvo.

Sleep certainly came easily on Saturday night.  Our room was cool, and dark, and just peace full.  I had to make a concession when booking this room.  Last time we were here we had a king size bed which was just heaven.  This time, to fit little Natey in, we had to suffer having two double beds instead.  It was so funny seeing Nate stretched out, his tiny little body only covering a small bit of the bed.

Sunday, well Sunday was pretty much the same as Saturday night.  About the only difference was that Tony ordered himself a couple of Martini's at the club lounge rather than last nights Mai tai.




The evening dinner canapes, were spring rolls and teeny weeny pork dumplings - we ate so many we had no need to order food tonight.  Last night we ordered some room service after our 'snacks'as it just didn't seem right to eat snacks for dinner.  We got over that tonight!  I even managed to stumble back to the club at 8 30 to see what the "evening cordials' was all about.  I didn't see any cordials, but I did see liqueurs, homemade chocolates and cookies.  Yep you guessed it, I took a sample of each back to our room for supper.
