Well as we turn down the alley to go to her place&#8230;.something is very different! The bar across from her has expanded out into the street and there are lights up and stuff. We get to Sopa&#8217;s and I look in to see if I see her&#8230;the girl at the table outside the door gets up and when I ask her if Sopa is here&#8230;.she says &#8220;no&#8221; and that Sopa sold the the shop to someone else!! We are shocked and saddened : ((<\/p>\n<p>So dazed and confused we wander off, aimlessly at first&#8230;.after a bit, we find ourselves back at our hotel&#8230;.there is a massage place right across the street called &#8220;Golden Hands Massage&#8221;. So for 150 baht we can have a foot massage ($5). Given that it s RIGHT across the street&#8230;.it seems like its worth a try&#8230;.and the end result, I can tell you, is like angels are watching over us! Amazing amazing ladies in there&#8230;worked their magic and we WILL be going back : )<\/p>\n<p>Now&#8230;BK&#8230;.here is a test for you&#8230;.do you recognize this street corner?
