Hi there Everybody!!!

In it's newest Version of Google Earth 4.3 you can now view Hua Hin in Great detail. In previous versions you can only view Hua Hin from a wide shot and when you try to Zoom in its get blurred like a Pea Soup. Now In it's newest Version you can view Hua Hin in great detail. The clear viewing starts from Palm Hills Golf course in the North ( You could even see my old Campus where I studied in geat detail) all the way down just south of Ban Hua Don. If some of you regognize your Home you can mark them down as well.

Well This is my Christmas Present (suggestion) to you all.
And for all of you here I Wish all of us iHua Hin Enthusiasts A Merry Christmas and a Cheerful Seasons greetings

Sorry everybody it's the latest version of 4.2 Sorry my Bad

Your's The understudy!!!

Will start working on some new maps for the area and HHAD in the new year ... watch this space!

It's GE 4.2 and our German friend is right.
Indeed updated pictures of Hua Hin and no problem to identify even your house buksi.

I don't think you need the latest version of GE to view the pictures as they are stored online - I have just fored up GE 4.2 (Mac) which is a couple of months old at least and can access the new improved shots of HH.

As it's Chrissie , and as I'm lazy, can someone "mark" it and post the link here?

Maybe now that HH is clear on google earth (about time), this could be another feature over and above the map - sponsors can highlight their locations via google earth with photo's etc.

Another forum I belong to does this and its a real help, although the location isn't as compact as Hua Hin.

Guten Tag webmaster!!!

You hafta Download the entire Program of Goolge Earth on your PC to see the difrence. Google Maps won't update six month or even longer cause they don't won't people to loose interest in Goolge Earth. Hmm I found it kinda reasonanle because Google Maps is more focussed on America and offer other Maps as a least updataed suplimentary

I just decided to check out Hua Hin on my early version of google earth. When I opened it up, a message came up stating "this version of google earth is no longer supported. Do you wish to load the latest one" I now have version 4, and HH is as very clear... Very Happy

Great Stuff

We are at 12,578556N 99,888908E

My guess is that this image is about 6 months old but far better clarity than before.
