Woohoo.. It was a hectic day with lots of attractive destinations to be visited.
Yes, I headed to Greece followed by Swiss!
Classic white-washed building portraying picture-perfect town!
Santorini Park cheered up my day.
Amusement park is not my thing but I really love the architecture and the colour presented.

Next stop: Swiss Sheep Farm
A European-themed farm with sheep, horses, pony, alcapa, rabbit and more.
 |
| entrance fee: 120 baht |

 |
| bbq banana (it was hard :O) |
 |
| garlic chives (reminded me of Evelyn!) |
 |
| seriously, there were over 30 flavours! |
Last but not least, the Venezia!
Oh well, it closed as early as 8pm (contrary from what I've researched from the internet and the Hua Hin Pocket Guide which stated the closing hour at 9pm).
But anyway, I walked around while most of the lights were turned off.
 |
| oh Cinderella's pumpkin carriage! |
 |
| spot the weirdo! |
 |

My second day ended with a late buffet dinner.
No, I refuse to take photo of myself bingeing on food.
LoL
 |
| look at the huge Coke bottle! retro |
Opps.. Did I tell you that I was at Thailand throughout the day? :P
(to be continued...)
I have always wanted to adventure and explore at overseas by myself.
 |
| bye Malaysia~ |
Planned for the itinerary, packed my stuff and there I headed off to the Land of Smiles.
Being well-known as a shopping & food paradise, a lot of people was shocked upon knowing that I bought the 10-day ticket to Bangkok.
Of course, I wouldn't be spending all my days at a single place - I went to a few provinces instead.
First stop after landed at Bangkok was the Southern part of Thailand - Hua Hin.

* Rent a car or motorbike would save a lot on transportation cost (Hua Hin is a small town where accessibility would be a lil bit of problematic)!

After around 3 hours journey, I've arrived Hua Hin safely.
G House Hotel was the hotel that I pre-booked earlier via the internet.
The sky turned dark as soon as I reached Hua Hin.

So after settling down at G House, I've took the free shuttle service provided by the hotel to the Chat Chai Night Market & Chatsila Night Market.
Also, to feed my growling stomach.

This restaurant is just a stone's throw from the night market so yeah, I went for a walk again to soothe my bloated stomach.
Haha..
As a marathoner, once again, I returned to G House Hotel on feet from the night market which was about 1.5km away.
