TENNIS

I know that over in the States a friend of mine are sitting waiting for just this blog but most of all for the photos!

Some day after we arrived here to HuaHin we saw that Maria Sharapova should play against Venus Williams here in town on the 2th January!

A friend that lives here from sept-may, bought 3 tickets for me and 2 to his parents, so we gave that to them for x-masgift, of course I dont gave mine to his parents but to Hubby and son!

So this day start early by the pool then lunch before tha taxi arrived about 12.30, totaly traffickaos in the town so it took nearly 1,5 h for a drive that usually takes 30 min!

It was a great match wich Maria won with 2-0 (6-3, 6-4), but they where great bouth of them!

Afterwards they played a mixdoubble with 2 of Thailands greatest players and that became a fun match.

So now we have been on Thailands Channel3 on TV aswell!

We ended up this great day whit a good dinner in town!

NEW YEAR!

Can you get a better new year than one with sun, a pool, warm and then when its time you are on the beach?

That was what we got!

Startet up with some hour in the pool, lunch at the Swedish Bakery then back to the pool!
Some crazy once wanted fried pork with onionsauce and mashed potateos, typical Swedish food, me myself chocked them by eating pizza, normaly only eat thai when Im here!

Back to the pool and then up to the appartment for some rest and then shower and getting dressed for the evening!

Was invited to some friends for a drink on their balcony and after that we went to one of the Thairestaurants for a 3 meal dinner and one more drink before!
We all took different food and only thaifood, real real good!

The bar on the corner had a englishmen who was playing live just this night so we went over there for some more drinks, listening and dancing!

Just before noon we went back home to get our champange and our fireballs(balloons), went down to the beach as many others!

Perfect place to be, we could see the fireworks along the hole beach from ChaAm to HuaHin and it last for 1 hour, we event get fire on our baloons and sent them away up in the dark sky as big stars, lovely!

After that we all was so tired that we went home and to bed!

But what a beautiful night!

X-mas to NewYear!

As I wrote in the end of the last one, we went to HuaHin for some shopping and to the GoKart so the boys could play for one hour!
This GoKart-place is owned by 2 englishmen and one Danish, nice guy and my boys had a fun hour!

The day after we deside to take our bikes back to HuaHin for dinner and Thaiboxing!
Many people thinks that Thaiboxing is a bloody sport and lots of hurts and so on, but no!

Some years ago we where at the other place and watch some real matches, with some of the greatest Thaiboxer, this time we went to the smal Thaiboxingclub.

5 matches and the 2 first with Thai, the 3th was a englishman against a Bangkokboxer, then one thaimatch and in the last it was a young Danish boy, that been down here to HuaHin for training and matches for the last years, 2-3 weeka every x-mas!
Need I say how it went, for the first time We got to se someone how wins on KO, the Danish guy won!

Day before NewYear some friends from the Condo asked us to go with them to ChaAm and the Thaimarket, such a market, the things nearly cost nothing!
Shoes for 100-200 bath, for us from sweden it became somewhere between 20-40 skr, sportsjackets for 80 bath, food for 10 bath and whats that nothing!

Even bought us some fireballs to new year!
