Exploring alone...

It's a very interesting time when you are

in a different country for an extended period.

Most days Jim and I spend them together.

But there are some sights I want to see and Jim has no interest in them.

Truly, I understand.

I mean just how many flower photos can I possibly take?

( Or need?)

Maybe I need to see just another Temple that is up the hill.

Happily, a hockey game was being streamed

on the TV and I was off.

Bliss!

All on my own, taking as many photos as I wanted to,

being delighted with the sights, smells, and smiles

of the Thai people at the day market.

It is an easy town to get around in, lots of inexpensive transportation,

many many food stalls to eat at as well as an extraordinary

small things that delight me.

It's very very busy on the roads, but it feels

and is friendly and safe.

 

 

It's all about the food....

There are street carts on every corner.

They have fish, chicken, pork,

shrimp & lobsters.

They add little side cars to their motor cycles

and have a small

little charcoal grill to cook the food when you hail them down.

They are resourceful and hardworking people and they love their food!

It is no wonder that Thai food is loved

everywhere it is served.

They also make some great pineapple

mini pies and cake.

You see pineapple fields everywhere here.

I love how they showed how a pineapple grows

in their wheelbarrow.

They also makes very yummy cold drinks such as

iced lattes and smoothies.

 

Hua Hin Market..

This is where the food and other vendors

sell their produce, flowers, clothing, etc to both

private and public clients.

It is amazing to see rows and rows of fresh fish, fruits, flowers,

vegetables interspersed with toys, makeup, spices

and women sewing on old tredle machines.

I want to go back again and have a enjoy another look around.

I find it fascinating to see all their hard work

for sale right in front of you.
