Cha Am, a small Thai Beach Resort. It is where the Thai's go to escape the busy city of Bangkok. It's only 2h away from Bangkok so a nice short beach visit is possible! I was kicked out of my room (not actually kicked out but my month of rent was over) so had a one night before I could move into a friends room and decided I would spend it at Cha Am!
I spent my first day lying on the beach studying for my up-coming exam and reading my book. It was a relaxing trip! I felt like a celebrity at the beach! I was one of the few Westerners and all the Thai's kept coming up to me to ask to shake my hand! They also seemed to be a little behind in technology... check out the seadoo with the outboard motor!!
After dinner I decided to go for a moonlit stroll on the beach before bed. As I was walking next thing you know I had these 3 Thai boys calling to me to join them for a beer! They were sitting at a table in the sand, right beside the water, with candles lit around them (one shaped as a heart). I sat with them for a little bit trying to help them speak English...

The next morning I rented a bike and rode to the end of the fishing pier and back. It was a nice day and a nice short bike before getting back on the bus to Bangkok...
