Day 5 Thursday Nov 24 2022 - today is our group's 2nd & final day in Hua Hin; using a hired car & GPS (a big thank you to KF who volunteered to drive & Thompson who acted as the navigator for this day trip), our group had identified a number of touristy places located 5 to 15km from Hua Hin town & decided to pay a visit to these places, weather was gloomy & wet today with occasional rain in a few of the places our group visited. Except the Monsoon Wine Valley, our group managed to visit a total of 10 touristy places located in the suburban areas of Hua Hin  1) Artist Village 2) Wat Kao Itisukato 3) Elephant Village 4) Khao Hin Lek Fai Viewpoint 5) Wat Khow Takiab 6) A Fishing Village in Nong Kae-Takiap 7) Takiap Reservoir Park 8) Sanao Beach  9) Rajabhakti Park & 10) Wat Huay Mongol. In the evening, our group visited the Hua Hin Night Market. But today, I had a few bouts of stomach upsets so a bit of challenge moving around & making a run for toilets!
