rajyindee Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 (edited) Are any of the ladies from our beloved Thailand national Team going to play? Wilavan, Bamee, Malika, Thatdao, Pleumjit, Jackie, and the Boss, Onuman? The Dream Team! It's beach volleyball ... But, yes, the top three Thai pairs are competing. The change in location from Chalathat to Samila has been a big improvement ... much more spectator friendly IMHO. It's been good entertainment for the last couple of days and no idiots sticking a water pipe in your face. What's not to like!
