Then it was weekend. We went to Black mountain waterpark
together with Jaco and Yolinda. Now if there is a little child inside of you
dying to get out – this is absolutely the place to go. For only 450 baht (R127)
you get a whole day of insane fun. There is 12 different waterslides, a lazy
river, 4 pools, a bar built inside a pool, a sauna pool (whytheheck do you want
a sauna pool in Thailand??!!), a water ski-park, a fake ocean (VERY fake – no sand
and the whole think is made out of cement, the only proof that it is a fake
ocean is the fact that you get 2 big waves every hour thrown at you).
My favorite received the nick name of “WITMONSTER” (white
monster). It is a super tube that basically has a straight drop to the ground
and while you plummet to earth a 1000m/s you get thrown through 5 – 6 loops.
(And I wondered who wants to wear a helmet on a super tube.) A very cool ride
where you don’t know if the wetness is caused by the water in the ride or by
the water in the body…)
After the park Steven and I went to Tesco to buy some meat –
we were making a South African lunch for ourselves and some other starved souls
at the Centennial (at a fee of course) on Sunday.
This is how our grilled pork fillet and slap tjips (French fries)
turned out (not a bad deal at 100 baht per person if you ask me):
We made our money back that we spent… (now that is what you
call clever) after about 2 hours in front of our small stove we finally got the
end result and we ate as much as we could get in. After resting for a while I said
to Brian we must go to the beach, because we had nothing to do (the others were
busy preparing lesson plans for the next day – but since Brian is a lesson
development machine we were finished within an hour) so off we went…
And this is how we ended of our first
weekend in Hua hin. Getting ready for a whole week of developing lesson plans
and presenting them to our fellow students. (Yes it wasas much fun as it sounds
like...)
