My Travel Journal

"There isn't much I haven't shared with you along the road and through it all there'd always be tomorrow's episode" - Elton John

I started traveling around the world since early 80s when I had the opportunity to combine business trips with vacations. Then later when my rezeki is in abundance, there were numerous other trips along the way for vacations, most of the time with hubby and the kids when the timing is right. I have also started to compile the journal and photo-pages covering almost more than 45 years of world wide travel. Some destinations I visited just once, others many times. Many of those places are the obvious famous places people would like to visit but some, the casual traveler doesn't even think to try. I have placed links to my travel at the side bar of my personal page, My Life Reflections, and will be updating them from time to time.

My wish is to continue my travel and complete circumnavigate the globe, insyaAllah…

Thailand Borders 19: Cha-am

“Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated...” – Confucius

Day 19: Thursday, 28 Nov 2024
Route: Kanchanaburi - Cha-am
Distance: 160 km (2:46)
Hotel: The Beach Residence, Cha-am

Breakfast in the room.

Checked out around 8.30 am then headed to Tha Muang Mosque, the Central Mosque of Kanchanaburi. It is a 2-story building. Car park is limited and can accomodate less than ten cars. It is also the office of the Kanchanaburi Islamic Committee and the center of Halqah Dawah Alamiah.

Drove out of Kanchanaburi on highway 323. Stopped for comfort break and bought provision at Huai Rong PTT in Petchaburi. The R&R is big with a halal restaurant and many halal food trucks. There is also a Muslim prayer room.

We had lunch at Restoran Abang Mana at PTT R&R in Cha-am. After lunch we drove direct to the Beach Residence by the Cha-am beach. Eventhough we were early we were allowed to check-in. The room was on the the ground floor, quite spacious and clean. There are many bars and massage parlours near the hotel.

After a refreshing afternoon nap, we went for a leisure walk along the beach. It was very windy and the sea was quite rough. We saw many people at the beach enjoying the late afternoon dip.

On the way back to the hotel we bought banana pancakes from a halal stall and have our dinner by the beach.
