Re: Hua Hin water shortage

I'm not yet living in Thailand. Can someone explain to me the whole water tank thing? The rental villas I've looked at have water tanks. What is their purpose? How are they filled? How are they drained? Is the water stored inside these tanks suitable for drinking (not that I would), showering and wa...

Interesting. I'll definitely try it out if it ever gets built.

We stopped by and watched a couple of the races today. Not as crowded as I feared.

Re: The best hamburger in Hua Hin

We just left Burgers & Us and it didn’t disappoint. The service, hospitality & food were great.

Re: Dragon Boat Racing, Khao Tao 2023

What are the hours of this event each day?

Is something happening on the 17th or just 18-19?

Re: Legal liability driving in Thailand

I have the same concerns. I rented a car from Hertz at BKK last month and they didn't have an option to purchase liability insurance. Fortunately, I only almost killed someone twice. I've searched for third party rental car liability insurance and can't find anyone that sells it. I want to rent anot...

Re: Abandoned Buildings In Our Area

It took me about 10 minutes to locate using Google Maps. Wat Huai Prap Wararam. Took a drive up there last week. A bit tricky to get to as the suggested route is blocked. I persevered and found it. I also went to the "ghost hotel" in Cha-Am, but my wife wouldn't let me go inside. About 500...

Re: Motorbike & car rental, Cha-Am and Hua Hin

Just had my rental motorbike collected by Cha-am Motorbike Rental. Can't say enough good things about the whole experience. They let me reserve 1+ month in advance, delivered it to my condo with a full tank of fuel and collected it from the condo at the end of our rental. They were flexible as my da...
