Back in Thailand looking at the Sea

Needless the say the taxi we had booked at reception the day before hadn't been booked and didn't arrive! But it was sorted out eventually and we arrived at the airport for the short hop back to Bangkok.  Our taxi transfer was waiting and two hours later we were in The Sheraton at Hua Hin unpacking.

It hadn't changed much, but this week is about decompressing and getting ready for coming home.

Our days have been spent in the shade of an umbrella on a lounger, reading listening to music, walking on the beach, and for me updating the the blog. and reliving our days at Angkor Wat through the pictures.

We tended to skip lunch after a good breakfast,  but about 2pm we would go to the beach cafe have an iced coffee looking out to sea.  The views from here are always hazing. But it isn't a fab view due to the high rise hotels near apartments springing up along the coast to the right.

A little bit better. Haven't got a clue what she was digging for.

The first night we treated ourselves to a tasting menu in their signature restaurant InAzia and had a lovely meal. It ranged from Japanese to Indian, with small grazing dishes. Sounds bizarre but it really worked.





The second night we caught the shuttle bus into Hua Hin for dinner and have done a couple of more times. I wouldn't recommend Hua Hin as a holiday destination. The town is a bit of a dump really, and quite seedy. But okay for a wander down the night market and dinner.

I had ideas of buying some nice things here as we have some weight left in the suitcase, unfortunately all the nice things we have seen along the way have disappeared and all the sell here is tat, what as shame. The only thing I have bought is two pairs of designer sunglasses. Real ones of course!!!

It's the last day and we are going to stick around tonight, have a G&T and then go back to InAzia for a farewell dinner.
