Felt the adrenaline flow as the days drew closer to our trip. It's a planned trip with a tour guide who is Adz's cousin. I wish I could just post up every pics coz it speaks a thousand words! lolxI really enjoyed group trips where we can established closer rapport with our friends or friend's friends! Not only that, I finally did my 1st banana boat sports in Hua Hin with this wacky group :)
To quickly start off, I've uploaded our itinerary
here and will briefly talk about this trip in 3 separate parts plus all the MUST TRY and MUST GO that you must not miss! This trip came as a package ($368 excl. air ticket) with a wonderful tour guide
Part 1 of the trip:
We stayed at Bluesky Resort which is about 30-45mins away from Hua Hin. It's a pity we didn't have ample time to enjoy our resort serenity and facilities as well as shopping at Cham-An FO.
More pics of the resort

Set off to Hua Hin in Day 2. This day, we visited Wat Huay Mongkol Temple (The Largest statue of Miracle Monk, Lung Phor Thuad) and had great times at the Elephant Village and Adventure Park. Not forgetting great meals at Madame Green Seafood Restaurant and Lobster Feast at Hua Hin Night Bazaar.

Wat Huay Mongkol Temple
In fact, I did quite a few search on Wat Huay Mongkol Temple. I was on cloud nine and was looking forward when I knew there's a Sunflower Field in Wat Huay Mongkol. One of my favorite! Talking about this, when was the last time Adz give me hur hur hur?
This half done statue will be placed behind Lung Phor Thuad upon completion.

Elephant Village
Basically, we were here for an elephant show and a 40mins ride. Our elephant named Lydia, 16yrs old if I remembered correctly. If you ask me would I want to come back again, I would say "NO"! One experience is good enough.

Oh man!!! As I blog, I realized I did not picture the soup we had! Anyway, Madame prices are quite decent coz we ordered 2 sets each and it costs us about THB3500.
Following next, was Market Village and Adventures Park, Plearn Wan Old Town and Hua Hin Night Bazaar. Though MV is quite a big mall, but there's nothing much to shop imo.

Time for some sports to loosen our stiff muscles after short hangout at MV. We did ATV and bananas boat ride! It was really fun and exciting and I've really enjoyed it to the utmost! lolz! Unfortunately, Celeste had to skip the banana ride as she got a deep cut on her thigh during the ATV ride.

| Kudos to her attitude despite her bad wound! |
I didn't like to ride ATV so I become a pillion of the ATV instructor and later Cecilia, taking photos for the rest. The instructor was kind enough to give us another round of track run on our way back from the beach! Riding in the night along the jungle track was indeed exciting cos you wouldn't know what's in front of you.

| My fast and furious driver |
Our next destination was Pluern Wan Old Town followed by dinner at Hua Hin Night Market. Plearn Wan Old Town is a faux-vintage market which I've been longing for a visit as I have a liking of old school and quaint retro object or place. I didn't take alot of photos coz it's night time and my camera's night shots really cmi. :(

| Delicious lobster |
This is one of the most sumptuous meals I had! Each dish came in set of twos. Total damage for this meal was about THB2800. Really cheap and tasty! That's not our last program of the day, we ended our night putting fireworks at the resort beach but was later stopped by the police on duty due to wee hours disturbance.
