Something Touristy & Visiting Thai Relatives

I make a terrible tourist.

I'm lazy.

While still in Hua Hin I felt we needed to do something touristy.

And so we did.

 Vidar, the tourist

Squinting and

carrying my bag

 

 Thailand, the land where

trees with real leaves of gold

grows

 "The Lord"

  

"Religion

- lots of creative ways to collect money"

 

 Throwing coins inside the elephants mouth

Then we went on a hike.

 It was wet and slippery, and pretty steep. Sometimes a bit scary.

Then in the evening on our final day in Hua Hin, Vidar and I caught a death-trap, also known as a Tuk-Tuk, to visit my Aunt Loay.

I guess you can say that she is my grandmother, considering that she was married to my grandfather for 28 years before he passed away four years ago.

 The house known to me

as my grandfather's house

- and the house where my mom lived

for most of her childhood

 

 Me at around 4-5 years old together with

my grandfather and my three cousins 

 Guess who's the half Caucasian one!

 

 My grandfather visited us in Norway for a couple

of weeks in the mid 90's

Veronika is in the stroller,

while I look a little like an

effeminate boy

And after the mosquitoes had had their fair share of my blood we went back to the hotel.
