Sinterklaas in Hua Hin: a lot of fun!
A lot of fun, worthy of Sinterklaas in Hua Hin. That is how we can call the arrival of the good saint in the royal seaside resort. The two Black Petes came tearing into the Happy Family Resort on quad bikes, while St. Nicholas followed with dignity.
The Saint was awaited by more than 30 children and 40 adults. For some children (and adults) it was as if an angel, accompanied by two devils, had descended from heaven. However, the children, who had made beautiful coloring pictures, were patiently waiting in front of the stage with Sinterklaas until he and his helpers handed out the many presents. The Pieten had equipped themselves with the necessary blasting and spraying, which increased the festivities even further. Sinterklaas promised to come back next year, with his faithful black servants. Bye Sinterklaasje, bye, bye, bye, bye, black pete...
Then it was time to attack the beautiful buffet that chef Patrick served to those present.

Dear Hans,
Glad this is being done.
These kids don't get this in Thailand and will love all the fun.
When we are in our village in Thailand we do three days.
The first is dinner with the family, the second is our son's birthday and
than an evening for the villagers.
Very good initiative to let children share this party.
Yours faithfully,
Erwin
