So looking for the "Lotus swamp", this artificial lake created to develop tourism and which today also serves as an observation post for birds is a really cool place, with all these floating lotuses, these birds therefore, the mountain in the background perfecting this decor, I despaired of finding this place again. All I would find was to get lost in the Thai country roads, I knew that I was getting closer because I recognized in the distance the peaks adjoining the lake, but as there is a cruel lack of cross roads I found myself having to return to the main road, turn around to turn left on one of the roads hoping that it was the right one...

It's flat and suddenly when you arrive at the seaside these mountains start to appear.

After the mountains there is a vast plain.

A good straight line, knowing that a train here is rather very slow, it is not the same dangerous as in France...

It's obviously time for the cows to go out.

Arriving in this village while looking for a crossroad, a guy on a motorbike will try to show us the way by asking us to follow him, following him on a bumpy dirt road I find myself at the back of the village where I had already been before noticing the dead end, the guy wanted to show me the direction from this place while I was actually looking for the road to go there (I knew the direction in absolute terms...)

After dropping out I headed towards Hua Hin, just before entering the city there was this market which we decided to go and have a look around.
