How often do I go traveling???


I don't go out very often. The last time I went out was my Dad's birthday. We went to a restaurant around Bang Bua Thong area. I always go out with family because I can't help myself much, always need help. I can say only my Mom can take care of me because she knows how to arrange my body. If it was in the wrong position I will feel uncomfortable because I can't move by myself, so I need help all the time.

My family is not a traveling family. The last time we went to travel was on 16-17 April. We went to Bang San beach. This trip is my wish because I wanted to go to the seaside. Actually I don't like the beach because I feel sticky with the sea-breeze, but I want to go there because I want to go in the sea. I heard sea water can help with skin disease, noooo not that I've ringworm or something like that, but I have bedsores and I hope the sea can cure my sores. I have these bedsores because I sit in the same position too long, that's not good for my health because in my case I need to move more often.

We didn't go alone, we went with my parent's boss' family. They went with their own car. We started off late morning and arrived at Bang San beach in the afternoon. There was a big traffic jam that day because it was in Songkran festival time, and everybody was headed to the beach.

 

We stopped at the residence to take some stuff off at the house. Where we stay is a house, it is not a bungalow or hotel, it was an official residence of the water works. We can stay there because my parents, my parent's boss and his wife, and my brother work for the water works. We had to pay 500 Baht.

When we set out to the beach it took a long time to get there because of the traffic. There people were still throwing water at each other and we were afraid that we will cannot find a place to park our cars. Luckily we could found somewhere. We rented a table at the beach and bought seafood there to eat, and also papaya salad and grilled chicken, my favorite food on the menu. I was feeling hungry then, lol. My nephews were playing in the sea and I was watching them because the sun was too hot for me to go down to the sea. At about 5.30 pm it was cool enough for me to go down to the sea.

You may wonder how I can swim in the sea. Of course I can't do that, I just floated in the sea. We rented balloons that look like donuts. At first I chose the middle size balloon and my brother carried me to put me in the balloon, and my mom and boss' wife pushed me to the deep water because the shallow water was a bit dirty. I was floating for a while until I felt tired in my neck because the balloon was too small for me. It didn't support my neck, so I changed to lie on the biggest balloon that can support my neck also. At first my mom was afraid I'll fall through the hole of balloon, but I didn't because my back is too stiff to get through the hole lol.


 

 

I enjoyed playing in the water, looking at the wide sky and watching the sun go down. I enjoyed for a while, and then I didn't feel so good. I felt nauseated, yeah, I was seasick!!! Hahahaha. So I told my mom I didn't feel good. My mom asked if I wanted to go back to the shore, so I said yes. My mom was complaining that I was only floating in the sea a short time, it was about half an hour, but I thought it was enough for me. If not I might get sick.

After that we went back to the residence and I had a shower there. The seawater ate my sores making them deeper and had breeding too. But don't be astonished because after that my sores got better. They got smaller and smaller, but have not recovered fully even now.

We slept there a night and went back home late next morning.

This story is the longest I have ever written. Hope it doesn't make you bored or sleepy. My life does not have many exciting things to write about.
