Hua Hin

For our second weekend getaway, I requested we make our way to a beach. Any beach. The easiest and most pleasant seemed to be Hua Hin, where the Royal Family of Thailand resides. While the water isn't anything special (I'm a beach snob, I'll readily admit it), I was just excited to smell the gulf air and listen to the waves while reading a physical book. That is exactly what we did all weekend, with a bit of fresh seafood, wine and beach beer mixed in. It was a perfectly relaxing weekend - and such an easy trip from Bangkok!

Settling in at a great place with cheap wine (rare in BKK)
and great live music on Friday night.

A lovely wedding party at the Hilton.
Thai people usually coordinate a color scheme for
all guests at the wedding, like this white/neutral one.

We definitely didn't sleep at the Hilton,
but got to enjoy some perks anyway!

Gorgeous view of the Gulf of Thailand in the east and
sunset glow from the west from the rooftop of the Hilton.

Nightmarket feast: We tried the jumbo prawns and seabass. SO DELICIOUS!
