So this is where the parties all happen? This is Hat Rin, famous for its drunken splendour. Well on first glance we thought ...where are all the tourists? All we could see was a smallish beach with lots of stalls and quite a few thais playing football on the beach but that was about it.
You could tell the place was made for tourists with the cheap bucket signs, reruns of friends in one restaurant and the ease of internet access.
To me it seemed like a club before it opens, all the razzmatazz and the workers all ready and waiting but with one crucial exception... no punters. Hat rin really is a one night a month kinda place but to be honest I liked it. I preferred the fact the accommodation wasn't sky high and the fact I could move around freely. And the fact is there was still some decent parties going on when I was there especially at catcus bar. I managed to spend the equivalent of two pounda the whole night on alcohol because I kept winning buckets. I was proud of two in particular ... my win in the musical chairs and the one that Sachin will probably claim some help with, throwing a basketball from a considerable distance for it to swish through earning me a bucket, you really can't put a price on that feeling!
The next day wasn't much fun as you can imagine even moreso because it was the day Hayley and Meagan were going off to Bangkok and then home, but it also was the day I booked my open water course in Kho Tao :)
