A plan to windsurf was abandoned due to a lack of wind, so we took a drive down the coast to Sai Keaw beach.
The beach is inside a Navy base, so it was time to hand over my driving licence again, and then pay 60 baht to drive along a narrow road over a hill to a pleasant enough stretch of sand. Not much to there, so took a few shots and moved on.
On the way out, we visited a little shop that sold plaster soldiers, including one that looked suspiciously like Thaksin:
A couple of final shots on the way home. The first one was processed by the camera to give the “Velvia” film look (allegedly); looked more like the “ingested too many recreational drugs” look to me.
A fine little outing for the Fuji which produces sharp images in luscious Fuji colours; I could learn to love it.
