Massage Parlors and Spas
$10 or 300 Baht for a two hour foot massage one would pay at a regular massage parlor with no frills just an excellent massage where they wash your feet, massage your legs and feet for an hour, massage your head, neck, arms and hands as well. They are well trained in reflexology and they give you warm water or hot ginger tea to drink after the massage.
$13 or 400 Baht for a two hour oil massage with a glass of warm water or hot tea afterwards.
$40 or 1200 Baht you can get a hand, foot and shoulder massage for an hour and a half in a nice spa setting. They offer you tea before hand, a special room for washing your feet and another massage room.
$75 or 2236 Baht in a spa you can have three different massages in two hours, a Thai Massage, Aromatherapy Massage and Oil Massage. The Thai massage loosens you up, the aromatherapy relaxes you and the oil just feels great. At the spa you are offered a cup of green tea, a lovely relaxing area before the massage and they even give you a g string and a shower cap to wear for a shower after the massage. They have a nice place for you to put your jewelry and to hang up your clothes. This includes tax and gratuity.
Restaurants vary greatly from $1 a meal to $25 a meal at an upscale hotel restaurant.
$1 or 30 Baht for a department store food court meal, only local Thai food.
$3 or 100 Baht for a meal at a local open air homestyle restaurant, mainly local food

Marcia: THANK YOU so much for sending me this. It was wonderful...just like being there. As you know, I've been to Thailand many years ago when my brother was living there. There are no words to describe that visit. Many memories are still with me. He (my brother is gone now, he died in 1984). My very best to you, I think of you often, you are such a great person.
