    If you have, give me the tips on low key places not normally traveled.

    Planning a trip.

    Before anyone asks. I’m going with my wife. She might be into lady boys, but I ain’t. I am looking for nice beach locations outside of the party/main tourist traps.

    We did get some r&r in patiya beach.

    That was it. Half through the exercise my wife's dad passed away. It was adventure to get back to Camp Pendleton. The red cross took care of ticket and dept of state walked me through security and customs in Bangkok, Tokyo and LA becuase i had no passport.

    I don't recall having a passport when I was on active duty. My ID card and orders were sufficient to get me through immigration.

    That's strange. I often traveled alone and on commercial flights. I guess times have changed. Nice to have the State Dept help you out.
