After going to "Monkey Mountain" we went on to the otherside of the mountain to a nice quiet beach area to enjoy water and bake in the sun.
Here is jon and Eva walking towards the beach.
A little drink shop, not quite open yet.. I guess it was too early, although that didn't stop us from drinking the beer we brought!
Do you like the "prise" list, "thang you"
Up the hill were a few little shops selling tourists goods, a small temple, massage shop and a buddha standing 19m tall.
At this beach you could rent sunbeds all day for 50baht ($1.60).
The pictures below were taken at a beach on the south side of the mountain, this beach was a lot busier but it was nice to people watch (until the 50+ yr old woman with dyed red hair like she fell into a jug of red kool-aid was sunbathing without a top on but wearing what looked like to us, her husbands speedo).
Here is a Thai woman carrying corn, a steamer and a stool to sit on. She was selling steamed corn to tourists along the beach. Passing her by, was another Thai who was selling clothing along the beach as well.
Beautiful isn't it? This depicts our time spent in Hua Hin - sand, water, sun, shade and Chang beer. You could a can of chang for 25baht at most local places off the beach, at 7-11 you could buy two for 44baht! On the beach a bottle went for about 40-50baht each, we usually brought about two cans each and then purchased one more from the local vendor.
