Happy photos this week..

I hope some of these photos show you

the sense of joy I have when I take them.

I always try to find something a little different

that strikes my fancy.

 

These past few days...

Almost all of our days are just good,

they are easy and they flow one into another.

Here are a few of the photos that

I really enjoyed taking this week.

Incredibly big waves hitting the retaining

wall at our beach.

I was far enough back that none of the water hit my

IPad, but it did make for a good photo!

 

For the love of Orchids...

Here in Thailand,

orchids are plentiful, grow amazing well and are stunning.

I had heard about this resort hotel in a bay not far from us.

The recurring discussion was their walkway of fabulous orchids.

I knew we had to go see it.

We hopped aboard the songthaew and headed for the

"Anantasila, Villas by the Sea"

It was as beautiful as it was described.

Here are just a few of the photos I took today.

We had a really wonderful lunch in a cafe on the beach.

We will be going back soon.

Monday...

Some more happy photos of our

excellent adventure.

We are having quite a windy day here,

quite a change from the last few hot and sunny days.

When we go for our walk later, I will take some photos to show how the

oceans waves are rolling in and how the wind

whips the spray into a frenzy.

The market at Baan Dan Sing Kohn....

This village is on the Thai/Myanmar border about 2 hours south from Hua Hin.

The market is there for trade between the Thai and Myanmar

people, they can cross the border, but it's not

open for tourists (yet).

Sharon and Graham picked us up from the bus at Pranburi

and drove us on the 1 and 1/2 drive.

What great friends they have become.

The scenery really changed once we got off

main road, it became mostly farmland.

I just fell in love with all the orchids,

Booths and booths filled with these amazing orchids,

sadly we can not bring any home.

Just imagine, 3 potted plants for

100 THBT = $4.00 CDN.

Here are just a few of these beauties, some smelled

so incredible, like baby powder.

Just a sneak peek...

Tomorrow I will tell you about our wonderful day.

These couple of photos might be a clue!

Thank you Shannon.

Finding a few thrifted treasures for my Cindy.

Cuttings and flowers from the garden.

Photos sent to me by Jeremy of my

darling Claire.

Gorgeous sunshine, great walk.

Oh my, what a beautiful day!

I took this photo of Claire, she moves so quickly,

so glad I was able to get this precious

one.
