Zero percent chance they aren't Chinese

 

 

I'm a frequent visitor to Kamala

 

I am trying to think where they would have gone in

 

Maybe by the strip of restaurants

Why scream now....you guys open everything for them. Now they are coming and screwing up everywhere....of course it is painful. Just bear the pain as you need their money.

In Hua Hin, I have seen middle aged Russians drive their motorbikes onto the beach at the Pines. As it is secluded  they are not visible to many people, but I see and hear them on my walks. They also toss their cigarette butts on the beach.

How do you know they are Russians? Do they fill in a carefully prepared questionaire at high speed?

I did write that I see and hear them on my walks. I can recognize the Russian language.

Whist they're on a motorbike? My, my, how talented you are. Faster than the doppler effect.

I think you can know what ethnicity a lot of people are by their language 

Not saying all the time

 

But I am sure if you live in Thailand and are around all the Russians that live there, it's pretty easy to know when someone is speaking Russian 

 

 

I live in Vancouver 

Filled with every type of Asian

I can't speak any of them fluently but I  can decipher and differentiate what language is being spoken

I observed their approach and then stopping from  approx. 100 meters away. They disembarked from their motorbikes and were smoking cigarettes. As I approached, I slowed  as I was wanted to remind them of the national park designation, but one flicked his cigarette butt onto the beach and they were in an animated discussion. I realized it was a waste of time so I kept walking.

I trust that the full description of the event is sufficient. They both wore helmets and were on higher end scooters.
