Cherating: Tourist Safari

Now this is odd. Cherating has only one main street where, at any given time of the day, you’ll see a couple of cars driving back and forth.

It’s always the same cars.

Packed with the same people.

And every time either vehicle passes a foreigner (read: white person), the car slows down and everybody in the vehicle turns to stare. This happens without fail.

My best guess is that they’re on a tourist safari. The whole family packs a lunch, piles into the family car and heads out to Cherating, where they can see tourists in their natural habitat.

And when they get there:

“Ahahaha! White folk! Quick! Get the camera. Wait wait wait! That one’s looking at you. Roll up the window! Roll up the window!”
