Our first night out was not your typical western night out but was equally enjoyable being on Khao San Road. Our initial intention was to start at one of the bars along the street and move along, but things really didn’t turn out to plan, and it’s a good thing they didn’t. Only a small bar with about fifteen people close to the start of Khao San road, but it was all that needed after we had our first bucket experience. Unknown to us was the fact that at midnight drinking on the streets is prohibited and so many bars with outside tables needed to be moved to within their indoor premises. With this being due to the country run by the army, the streets were frequently patrolled and so most of the vibrant street atmosphere was lost. In order to avoid any potential trouble the owner decided to pull down the front shutter and that is when it all began. After getting to know the owner and her allowing about fifteen of us to stay, the music was playing and we soon became our own bar tenders pouring our own buckets to our desired measures. Despite the few people, it became a small house party with a great atmosphere and everything we needed and so we spent our entire night within this bar just drinking and getting to know our fellow captives haha.
