it took 3 hours of travel time by the coach bus from Bangkok Southern Bus Terminal to travel to there.
each ticket only costed 160baht($7) and buses depart regularly at a 40 mins time interval from 4am to 10pm.
it is very convenient to go there whenever u want from Bangkok and the bus ride was pretty comfortable even though they drive very fast.
when we reached the place, we have to walk around to find ourselves a hotel as it was late midnight and most hotels/inns are already closed.
we happened to saw this small, shadowy alley which actually leads us directly to the beach.
we walked through it and the min we stepped on the sand, a time for admiration is all we need.
standing on the beach, it seems like the sea was singing a song from the sounds of the gentle waves. the sky is full of luminous stars, and the beauty of the image at that moment was simply beyond words.
after 1 hour plus of searching for a place to stay overnight for, we finally got ourselves a guest house which is near to the beach.
it costed 600baht($26) for 2 people for a room per night.
to sum up all, Hua Hin is really a relaxing, much more slow-paced place as compared to Bangkok where buzzling is all u can feel.
if u have a chance, u must go there!
A visit to Pala U Waterfall
it is a 15-level waterfall along a creek stretching out to the Burmese border. we travelled for 1 hour journey by cab to there and paid an entrance fee of 200baht as we're tourists. as for the Thai, they only have to pay 100baht for it.
and guess how many levels had we climbed in 1 hour?
only 5 levels.
sightseeing, playing in the ice-cold water, and the guys doing waterfall jumping taken us quite awhile there.
time do not allow us to climb more as we have to go down the hill to meet our taxi driver within a few hours of time.
it was amazing how we managed to climb those slippery rocks and dangerous hill routes with only our slippers on.
however some rock paths are really too risky if we dont walk with our bare-foots and so we took them off and climb like modern cavemen and cavewomen.
we really had a lot of fun there!
a day to start..
brought my tube dress, my bikini, my flower, my shades, my slippers.
thinking of sun-tanning, swimming, taking truck loads of photos on the beach.
HOWEVER, plan changed suddenly to go to the waterfall instead of the beach on the saturday, that very morning.
SOBS.
anyway, it was a good trip too.
it was really a once in a lifetime experience!
