Bumming on the beach

Architecture and happiness... hmmm...
(Reading in the pool is not a good idea, but luckily I was only posing with my book)

I finally am able to sit down to share my last weekend in photos.  We made a decision to get out of Bangkok for the weekend and it was definitely worth it. Leaving at 7am, we arrived in Hua Hin, a beach town/resort area for Thais and tourists, at about 11am – just in time for lunch! After a long walk on the beach and getting sun burnt, we made our way to an out-of-the-way spot in Pranburi, where it was hardly developed with nice boutiques resorts and a long stretch of empty beach.

One thought on “Bumming on the beach”

  1. Hey Vince and Muriel!

    It’s good to know you had a nice weekend at Hua Hin, which is also my favorite place… My father is going to Thailand again probably in October for 10 months contract and I will hopefully visit BKK again while they are there. Hope to catch up with both of you soon!
