If you think about it some of the best things in life don’t need to cost money to enjoy, from your family to the stunning landscapes offered by our planet, such as a beach.

 

When I visited the unfashionable Thai beach in Cha-am I was with my family and so it went without saying that this just doubled the fun.

 

I often have to remind myself of these precious moments with my young family and certainly when I look back on days out like this, in this case whilst editing my vlog, I realise how special these times are.

 

Watching my kids play on the beach from looking for crabs to digging in the sand is quite simply awesome.

The pain really shows on their faces! ???? Maybe they are just burying some berries!

You should’ve been there for the shootout a couple weeks ago, now that was awesome.

I don't like sand in my berries.

They may be 7' tall basketball players too. Can't tell from the picture. 

To be honest the sand at Cha Am is not the cleanest at any time of the year.

Horses, dogs and a few drunks have used the beach as a toilet

I hope the kids were steam cleaned after the day out

 

Why people on here seem to be so pessimistic I don't know. Have spent many a time in Cha Am and it's a joy. Knocks spots of that local H/Hin place. Full of Thais enjoying themselves from early morning, (The only bug bare as they can start around daylight) Just join in you'll be surprised how much fun you can have. And the foods very good as well.  

my friend that worked as a special forces in US

said they went through torture techniques

to learn how to deal with it,

-he said the scariest thing was to be buried alive,

he had to bail out on that one
