    Wat Yan & Wat Khao She Jan - My another lovely weekend

    Yippie! At last, I've made it!

    Saturday morning, I woke up at 7 am, yeah.. that sounds stupid but I had to wake up early if I wanted to go diving.

    I met my budies at Tesco - Pattaya Tai then we headed to Sattahip-Samasarn. Unlucky that I didn't bring my cam with me but I promise I'll take a picture of diving thing for you guys for sure.

    Alright Sunday already, we woke up a bit late then went to Wat Yan and Wat Khao She Jan which I've been there 10 years ago in Children day and Saturday's Children day as well then it's not a bad idea to visit there again.

    Wat Yan is not far from Pattaya, not sure if it's in Sattahip.

    I remember that this one is new for me.



    Another temple thing;

    Aw-ite!!! Got bored at Wat Yan already.. Let's go to Wat Khao She Jan!

    This is the nice one which is on the way to Wat Khao She Jan.




    And this is what the monks stay.



    It's not a good idea to walk again after a long walk. Let's find something to eat first.

    Wow.. lot's of food shop.



    We forgot to take a picture of food before eating but this is not too bad, eh? One thing that I realised that a woman who made Som-Tum, she's not from Isaan for sure.

    This is Wat Khao She Jun.



    Oh.. I just see it! That's me, who's walking in the pic!

    I like this picture, it looks like there's a ray at the budda's head. (I don't wonder if you guys don't understand what I'm talking about, bad English, I know)


    I love this pic as well, guess who!?


    I love my (every) weekend.

    It's scuba diving. Last weekend, I went to Sattahip which is about 30 min far from Pattaya.

    I'll take a picture my next diving for sure then you will see how fun it is. ;-)

    I misunderstood your question, frankie.

    Where I went diving, it's a shipwreck. There's lots kind of things to look there. My buddy (ex-instructor) said only advance divers are allowed to dive a place like this but I had him who's a great diver as a buddy then no problem hehehehe..

    I also heard sound of bomb. Not sure if some people tried to catch fishes or soldiers were training (it's military area). I felt like someone was knocking my oxygen tank.

    I love diving! ;-)

    Could have been one of these 3

    Hardeep - an Indonesian ship which went down a few hundred meters from the island Koh Chuang near Pattaya;
    Petchburi Bremen - a Thai freighter which sank near Sattahip village south of Pattaya;
    Khram - a warship which lies about 300 meters from Koh Phai near Pattaya;

    I've dived on the HArdeep - pretty cool diving - particularly siwiming inside the wreck (in places - gotta b careful.)

    YES!!! I dived in Hardeep last weekend also. I love it! It's a bit dark in that ship but it's nice. ;-)

    Why is that worth to mention?

    If she's from Issan, the tasted must be better than that.
