Land of Smiles

Thailand is Cambodia's neighbor to the West, and this forum is dedicated to Thai news, stories, reviews, blogs, videos, Thai people and anything else related to the country. A lot of expats have both lived and worked in Cambodia and Thailand, and this area is a place to discuss all aspects of life in Thailand and what's going on there. Most topics are about Bangkok and Pattaya because of their larger populations of expatriates and tourists in those cities, but this is for all things Thai.

One of the mornings this week I had to leave home very early for a long drive to Rayong for work.

I had to make a quick stop at a nearby 7Eleven for drinking water. Coming out of the store I saw people buying breakfast from street hawkers so I decided to take a video to show a typical morning scene at a 7Eleven store in Thailand.



For breakfast I stopped at the highway rest point along the highway between Bangkok and Pattaya



I had breakfast at Starbucks
