Hua Hin 2020

Earlier this year, we travel to Thailand with kids and relatives. It’s not the first time in Thailand, but it’s our first to Hua Hin (HH) which is located 3 hours drive away from Bangkok (BKK) at the southern Thai province of Prachuap Khiri Khan and famous for its seaside resorts. We flew to BKK early in the morning, got our HKD changed to Baht at the airport’s SuperrichTH then hopped on to our pre-book van to Hua Hin!  Of all the hotels and resorts along, we picked the Hua Hin Marriott Resort & Spa which is reputable for their kids club, kids and family pools, the 1.1m loop pool access rooms, fine amenities, satisfying service and good food. And of course, with kids who love swimming, we book the pool access rooms at ground floor and picked the breakfast and spa package (includes breakfasts and daily 60 mins spa for each adults) ! 


Here’s what to do when you’re in any of the seaside resorts in HH. 

1. Most of it has beach access, which means there’s horse riding, sunbathing area, food stalls, kitesurfing classes and even seaside massage services. All of these are to be paid accordingly, often at different prices and definitely pricey because it’s for tourist ! But there are reasonable ones, just spend some time googling it or walk around and begin the bargaining. 


2. Most of it has kids club and adults classes like yoga, thai boxing, fitness thing and cooking classes. Remember to get the timetable for all scheduled classes so you won’t miss out the fun and interested ones. Most of them are free of charge unless kids workshops for shoes/ pillows kind of thing; or if you want a 1-on-1 thai boxing class with the instructor. 


3. Different swimming pools for different people. In Marriot, they have different pools for Kids, teenage, family and adults! The floating boards, pool hoops are available to all, and you’re allowed to bring your own giant floating animals with free electric pump next to the pool for anyone to pump it without a fuss. However, try not getting these “toys” to adult pool, there are adults probably prefer to just swim and not just soaking in pool for fun time.


4. Don’t underestimate the hotel’s restaurant and cafes. They often surprises you with variety of food choice, and check the special cuisines for different nights. And let’s not forget the happy hour for adults to order some cocktails with chips while kids are hanging out at kids club 😌


5. The spa and massage treatments are often reasonable ! You don’t really have to tip the masseurs unless it’s beyond expectations; They uses good products, offer refreshments before and after treatments.


Overall our experience there are amazing ! Good food, relaxing atmosphere, fun time with the family 😊 Of course in Hua Hin there are much more than just seaside resorts ; but we decided to save them for our next trip!

High Island Reservoir East Dam (萬宜水庫東壩)

A couple of months ago, I planned on an easy scenery walk with kids and their friends. We left home right after school, only managed to grab a bite on the way to Sai Kung. There are plenty of hiking trails waiting for us in Sai Kung but this time, we go for the easiest route, just a short visit to the East Dam.  It’s a reservoir formed in 1978, known for the volcanic rock columns and anchor shape sea barrier(錨形防波提), a breakwater. There’s public toilets right at the entrance to High Land Reservoir East Dam, along there’s information on volcanic rocks and pavilion. It’s concrete or asphalt pavements all the way down to the sea cave which is proof of coastal erosion (海蝕洞).  On your way down to the breakwater, there’s a gigantic wall of volcanic rocks, which is the hexagonal rocks columns! Its a 140 millions year old volcanic history. Along the way you passed the road with sea barrier (my suggestion is to spend time here on your way out), hexagonal volcanic rocks on your right a...

Tips: Hiking

Hiking with kids can be tough but we did it anyway, because it’s one of the best way to show kids the right way to care and love the nature. Of course, there are times where kids get worn out, feel bored or throw tantrums; but they develop new skills like observing plants and livings in nature, experience independence and trained physiques when they spend time outdoors.  However, heading into the nature with children requires some planning and prep;  1. Right clothing and gear. Layers of clothes so you could adjust for changing temperatures, weather and condition. Closed-goes shoes that fit well. Accessories like hat and sunglasses  2. Stock up your backpack.  Filled up with snacks for kids (something they’ll look forward to), plenty of water, sunscreen and bug repellent. Consider to let your young children like mine (4.5yo and 3yo) bring 1 of their favourite toy if it makes them feel better about the hike. And not forget the first aid kit stock with bandage, bite an...

Amphibians or Reptiles ?

Do you know how to differentiate amphibians and reptiles? Well, we learnt that (yes, even as adult, I learnt with my kids) at the amphibian classroom held by ki2zoo  Kids absolutely love the class ! They asked to have a pet gecko or snake few months back, but of course, mommy is no fan of cold-blooded pet, so I rejected 😂 Hence, they’re looking forward to this class, being able to held and pet those (in their word) “cute and adorable” little geckos and baby snakes.  The 1hour 20mins class time include introducing, little quiz game for kids, picture and petting time.  Kids now know that the 🥚 eggs for reptiles and amphibians are different, reptile’s is with eggshells and the latter lay eggs in water and covered in gel ; 🦎 reptiles’ skins are dry, hard and scaly while 🐸 amphibians are smooth and highly porous : and amphibians needs water in their habitat their life cycles involves that.  If you’re interested, I’ve gathered some information from the organisation:...
