Activities to enjoy while in Hua Hin


The place I visited that night is called Cicada. At this place tourists enjoy cultural activities, including entertainment of a wide varieties, foods and drinks, souvenirs
and local musics.That night there were huge crowd of people, i think, from Bangkok.There quite a number of foreigners who prefer to hang a round at drinking bars near the cultural activity site.Foods and drinks are the most important attraction here, though there are some local musics and demonstrations of some kinds too.
Car parking services and motorcycle deposit are attractive business as well.
Ample seats for families and lovers.
You have to buy coupons for foods and beverages.

Clean place and people seem to care for nice environment.
Feel that security is not the problem here.
Traffic is friendly.

May I add that
I had a nice round of golf.
I  did not forget to visit the seaside and the swimming pool at the hotel where I took part in the Lions Clubs National Convention.


That is what I feel when I was there.
See for yourselves at my pictures.

OSEAL FORUM

I TOOK PART IN A NATIONAL MEETING OF LIONS CLUBS IN THAILAND IN CHA AM AND HUA HIN during 14-16 March 2014. I know that there will be two international activities at the end of the year.
These are OSEAL FORUMs and details are below.


I also saw this peace poster in front of the convention venue. It is a nice and interesting one and I would like you to take a closer look at small pins in the picture.
After the meeting I had a round of golf in Hua Hin which is nice because I met a golfer couple  from Switzerland. We played together for two holes. They walked, but I used a golf cart and I did not have much time left before going back to Bangkok; therefore, I had to separate from them after hole  9.
Next, at hole 18 which is not my last hole for today, I had a chance to join two  foreign golfers ahead of me, who were going to finish their round of golf at this very hole. The male golfer offer me to come with them while his partner administered her first shot.They are nice couple and all of us finished this par 4 hole with bogeys.They were surprised to know that I had got three more holes to collect to finish my round.

I continued to collect my last three holes, holes 10,11 and 12. I finished this round of golf at hole 12.

Though I did not have much time in playing a round of golf today I  still enjoyed the game of golf for many reasons. I find the condition of the course is perfect. The fairways are in good condition; the greens are well taken care of. Staff and caddies are also well behave and qualified. The environment is O.K. You play both mountain view course and sea view one in one round.

No birdies, not many pars; but the score is low.
A happy round to remember.

By the way, could you please help me turn the last picture into the right position?

Kalasin's Pong Lang and Phrae Wa Festival of 2014

Talking about Kalasin,on the one hand, you may think of Gala silk because of the pronunciation and the spelling of the name. Actually, Kalasin is a Sanskrit word which means black water.That is the reason why sometimes someone write Kalasindhu to remind us of the root of the language.
On the other hand, you may think of a kind of local silk cloth named Phrae Wa which is unique and famous throughout the country if not throughout the globe.

During 19-26 of March 2014


the province is going to celebrate its 220 year anniversary. You will discover aspects of cultural activities in our province.
We are proud to present to you  our provincial slogan.

Mueang Fah Daed Song Yang, Ancient city.The city is in the vicinity of Kamalasai district.

Pong Lang Lerd Lum, Indigenous Musical Instrument.The instrument is so beautiful that even Princess Maha Chakri had once tried to learn how to play it.

Wattana Tham Phu Thai, Native Charm (The lady above is a Phu Thai from Khok Kong village. She is waiting for at the OTOP in the provincial hall building).

Pha Mai Phrae Wa, HM the Queen's Silk. The silk is wide spread throughout the country and aboard.

Pha Sawoei Phu Phan, Must see cliff at Phu Phan mountain.The cliff is on High Way from Kalasin to Sakon Nakhon.

Maha Tara Lam Pao, Lam Pao river where Lam Pao irrigation Dam was built creating a huge reservoir. Right now a bridge over the reservoir has created a tourist attraction in the province.

Dinosaur Sat Loke Larn Pee, Sirindhon Dinosaur Museum is in Sahat Sakhan district about 40 kilometers from the city of Kalasin.

Connect all these and you will know Kalasin better.
However, right now in 2016 we expanded our slogans by adding "Luang Phor Ong Dam Lue Lueng" in front of the existing one to honor the ancient Lord Buddha Image that is an important part of the history of our province.
The Wat Klang temple in the capital city of the province has decently displayed the image for all Buddhists to pay their respect to the Lord Buddha around the years.
