Had a short break while my folks were over here at the beginning of the month, and decided on a few days in Prachuap Khiri Khan.
Here are some pics (some from Mrs benbaaa and some from me):
First up, the view from the balcony of the hotel where we stayed on Ao Manao.
Fah Chom Kleun Hotel: ok-ish, but since they're the only place on the beach, they don't have to try very hard to please the customers. Rooms ok, but breakfast rubbish. Also, if you stay on Ao Manao itself, there's sod-all to do at night. Next time, we'll stay in town.
Nice beach, though:
Didn't like the look of this bugger. That's my size 9.
This is what I was really there for:
Back in town, this is what passes for a tuk-tuk:
Monkeys on the hill:
Prachuap Bay (Manao Bay is the other side of that headland in the distance):
Nitelife
You can sit on a table on the other side of the road looking out over the beach, and the waitress'll bring beers over to you.
Finally, one from Chiang Mai. My mum spotted this bright red dragonfly in the park. Bizarre or what?
