We recently spent a week in Hua Hin with Anthony’s brother and wife in their beautiful apartment. On our first night I managed to capture the bright orange moon from their verandah.

Daytime photos


Our first morning was spent walking around Khao Tao Lake. It is a serene and tranquil man-made reservoir. There is a running track and cycle path. We met plenty of other walkers on our way.


The lake is surrounded by ornate gold lamp posts topped with turtles. Luckily for us the water lilies were still blooming.
A fresh fruit juice bar to quench your thirst after your walk sits on one side of the lake.
A traditional fishing village is located just by the lake.

A quick stop at the beach for breakfast
After a lovely morning walk we headed to a local shopping mall where I could get a pedicure.
We decided to get a tuk tuk back instead of waiting for a taxi. Such fun weaving through the traffic with the wind in our hair. Our tuk tuk was a “Hello Kitty” style, decked out with small toys and painted pink.



A selfie of me and the driver!
Looking forward to seeing what the rest of the week brings.

I’m always envious of people whose family relocate to lovely spots so that one can visit.
Yes Sheree, we are lucky
A great start to your visit! The lake looks beautiful and I do enjoy a tuktuk ride 😀
