Packed up all my stuff, most of it nice and fresh from the laundry we had done. Checked out around 12.30pm from Victor Guesthouse and made our way toward the station having some lunch along the way. Boarded the train at 2.30pm where our ticket cost a mere 90p for a journey the same distance as London to Cardiff. Arrived in Bangkok around 7ish and got a Tuk Tuk to Khao San Road to Kawin Place, the same hotel we stayed in some 2 months ago! Showered and chang...

Our last full day in Hua Hin, thank god! Coming here for me has been a complete waste of time and money! It's left a bitter taste in my mouth about Thailand, but I guess these things happen, I still have my health at least, for the moment.

After a discussion with the staff and the ...

Woke up fairly early and went straight off to the Tourist Police to explain to them what had happened with my phone.

I had to point out a picture of a ladyboy who I thought it could have been and they gave me a piece of paper for the insurance claim and that was about it! Not ...

Woke up and went for some brunch as we had missed breakfast due to all the travelling yesterday. We went to a nice German restaurant which I had chicken with potato salad, but it's was done German style, very delicious. We explored Hua Hin. Full of old people! Barely saw anyone our age and soon realised there wasn't much to do here, bad move! In the evening we had a power cut so headed out for some food, which somehow turned into a night out. Met two English l...
