Today I want to tell you about our trip to the beach in Pattaya. In five months of staying here, we went to the beach for the first time. Not because we don’t like the sea, but because the water in Pattaya itself is not the cleanest. Usually we prefer other places, but today we decided to just relax, lie on the sun loungers and enjoy the atmosphere. Renting a sun lounger here costs 100 baht (about $3) for the whole day.
While my wife was enthusiastically reading a book, I took out my camera and started taking pictures for my favorite blog on Hive. The first people I caught in my lens were the beach vendors. They are on all tourist beaches in the world, but in Thailand they are especially unobtrusive, for which I thank them very much. They just silently come up, show the goods (food, jewelry, souvenirs, offer henna tattoos or massages) and, if they see that you are not interested, they also silently leave.
The girls-vendors noticed that I was taking pictures of them and were a little embarrassed. I'm sure if I had asked them to pose, they would have happily agreed.
🐿️ Later, we had an unexpected guest - a small tailed thief. A squirrel, of which there are many here, tried to steal the remains of a coconut that my wife drank. She made several attempts, and I managed to capture her antics! True, the photos were not of the best quality, but the moment itself was funny.
The only thing we agreed to from the offers of beach vendors was a handmade bracelet. We liked the idea of making it personal, so we chose the colors and asked to weave our son's name into it. When he received this bracelet, there was no limit to his joy!
Well, and to conclude the post - a photo of my wife. I did not want to publish it, but she insisted. She really liked the comments under her previous photo shoot, so now you will see her in my blog much more often! 😄]
All the photos were taken in Thailand 🇹🇭 - the city of Pattaya! 📷
I write my texts myself, correct mistakes and translate via ChatGPT (which is not a violation on Hive)!
All photos were taken by me personally - I am a beginner photographer, so I ask professionals not to judge strictly.
Thank you for sharing these moments with me! Until new stories and new holidays!
