Hua Hin Night Market

Suitable intoxicated after the Thai Show we wandered through the local night market. Basically a night market is just a bunch of stores in a main road (which is closed off to cars). It’s a great experience, people are so friendly and you can really get into bartering for your goods –if you don’t get 50% off you’re a looser!
We didn’t spend too long looking around the night market on the first visit because it was already late when we got out of the show but we went back several nights running later. You can get pretty much any item you like from a night market, I was trying to talk Stacey into letting me buy a set of throwing knives, a set of death stars or one of those extending truncheons the police use over here but she was having none of it!
We did however get some really cool stuff, present buying is a doddle when you’re in a night market. I think we spent most of our money in the night markets over the holiday.
