One afternoon during our Thailand vacation last year, I left my husband in the hotel (basking under the scorching sun 35C approx, yay!) , packed up may camera and lenses and went to the nearby market. We we’re in Hua Hin, our favorite province in the Southern part, just about 198 kilometers from Bangkok.

I’m quite familiar with the area since I worked and lived there for several years in the 90’s, but unlike my Dutch husband, it wasn’t just the warmth of the sun that I was after during that October vacation but I really wanted to visit all the places that were close to my heart. And well, in most of those places food is involved.

I am going to do a series of entry of my visits….so here’s to start it with. It was around 1pm when I went to the market and it was still early for most Thai people to get their snacks. This lady selling grilled hotdogs and seafood balls was quite early. Early bird do catches the worm, right?

When I was still living there, I must admit those squid balls were one of my favorite snacks…spicy and yummy! Inexpensive as well.

Look at how clean the area was! Well, Thai people are known for their cleanliness too.

more yummy snacks!

It was so nice of her to let me take her photos…

hmm….now I want some hotdogs!!

join me on my next market trip, aye? ;)
