Up at a reasonable time (for us in Thailand mode that is where the Australian 7am start has given way to a 9am start!)
First stop the 10.30 am english mass at Hua Hin Catholic Church. As we were kept talking by an Australian over breakfast we too a taxi there.Its in the grounds of a Salesioan school, so took us a while to find the Church. It was a very Australian priest who was on vacation who took the service.
Next stop was the shopping mall for a quick snack at the food court, the girls brought a few reasonably priced souvenirs then it was onto the beach.
We hit the beach at a lovely quite spot, but just as the heaven opened. We kept on thinking it would blow over, but it suddenly became torrential for about 15 minutes - fortunately at a spot where we had cover. Those left on the beach were mainly in the sea - the best spot to be, those who braved the walk were as wet as if they had been in the sea.
After 15 minutes or so, the rain abruptly stopped - but the kids were deaf to our suggestions about returning to the beach so instead we returned to the hotel where Joseph spend almost 2 hours in the pool.
This was followed by the usual pattern of a wander around markets, tea and bed.
Tomorrow we plan to return to Bangkok - probably by bus.
Pictures to follow - wifi connection too slow to upload here!
