The Thai Consulate starts issuing passports with Visas at exactly 13:00 and not a minute earlier. Cellular communication in Laos, however, does its job very quickly. My daughter and I couldn't stand in line in the sun, so we were one of the last to enter the building and ... immediately received our documents.



A pre-booked tarantass was waiting for us at the exit. The road from the Arc de Triomphe to the Consulate, waiting and the way to the border cost our whole family 100 thousand. Lao Kip (approximately 350 Baht).



It was a bit sad to leave Laos, and we firmly decided to return here at least for a week when it's time to apply for new long-term Thai Visas.



The reverse crossing of the border crossing "Friendship Bridge" between Laos and Thailand was slightly different from the first one. Firstly, the queues at the passport control desks of the two states are noticeably longer. Secondly: there is an opportunity to visit the large Duty Free market (located to the right of the customs), where, in addition to the standard tobacco set, you can buy cheap things (bargaining is required). Thirdly,: instead of a barn plying between two borders, we got a quite cozy minibus, a la Mercedes Sprinter at the same cost (15 Baht or 4000 Kip).



Otherwise, the procedure for passing the border with new long-term visas is no different from the usual entry into Thailand with a 30-day stamp. The only thing, just in case, is to attach the migration card to the page of the passport where the Visa is pasted. So that the customs officer could see her right away.



Then we had a trip, again in a tarantass, but already a public one, from the border to the Nong Khai bus station. The price of the trip is 20 Baht per person, but he rides all over the city and only delivers it to the bus station at the end.



Tickets for the nearest bus to Pattaya were taken without hindrance at the representative office of the transport company transport in Nong Khai, Tuk Tuk 407. A regular flight, not an express or a VIP - the price is 500 Baht per person (including Yanochka). We were sitting in the same salon downstairs, but with narrower seats, but it was warm! We drove noticeably longer, at first it seemed that we would stop under every bush and pick up passengers, but then nothing, we figured it out and got to the same bus station in Pattaya at the intersection of Sukhumvit and Central Street in not much more than 12 hours.



Here we had the last adventure of our exciting trip. At that time, we were renting a condo on the 12th jay of Jomtien, which is quite far from the bus stop. That is, it was necessary to stop a taxi or a Tuk-Tuk (our native Pattaya is about four wheels). The problem was that there was an interesting figure on the clock - 5 a.m., besides, it rained for the first time in the last seven or eight weeks in Pattaya and there were no cars on the road at all. There was no desire to get on a motorcycle taxi, in a downpour and with a child. With grief in half, an old pickup truck still managed to drive through Sukhumvit to the turn to Chayapruk. And then only on foot... You should have seen with what interest the waking Thais looked at the Farang family hung with bags, paddling barefoot in the rain, at dawn, and even with a three-year-old joyful child at the head!
