ThailandThis city is so freaking big! It really does my head in. We were out from 10am to 10 pm yesterday. Hoping today will be more relaxed. One more market to check out.
ThailandWe have an hour wait here for the bus to Bangkok. We opted in the end to do things the long but easy/cheap way. There are SOOOO many options for getting to Bangkok, it was almost overwhelming but in the end this made the most sense for us. Fortunately it's raining a bit today so we don't feel like we are missing out on beach time. Miss you all - see you so soon now!
ThailandWow! Another beautiful spot. Mikk and I are splurging at a 4 star resort for the next 3 nights until we head back to Bangkok. This place is so spectacular! The rooms are beautiful and clean, and the infinity pool spills out into a beautiful bay.
Oh Yes...now this is paradise. I'm envious of those surroundings! That's my kind of holiday. Enjoy it to the hilt! Love Mom
ThailandWe just arrived a few hours ago. The hotel is pretty nice. Things definitely have more of a "tourist" price tag here. We are planning on heading to koh nang yuan island tomorrow for the day. Google it. It looks super beautiful! So we will spend the day there. Our last few beach days we are going to splurge on a more deluxe resort. There are some truly beautiful ones here. Diving looks like it mayRead more
Dorothy WalterNow you are getting into places I can relate to really enjoying and chillin' and relaxin' That's my kind of travel. You have sent some amazing pictures with incredible sunsets and beautiful beaches. If it is windy i would say the snorkelling will not be great either. it tends to stir things up and makes it difficult to see. Soooo just find a sheltered spot out of thewind and R& R. there's more than one way to ..... oh forget that ... you wouldn't find that saying amusing!
Gordon WalterYou have found some real jewels of beauty and appeal. So glad you are having so much great R&R.
Time for a resetMom are you talking about skinning cats???? It's cloudy this morning but still heading over to the island. We walked by a restaurant that sells "Canadian Caesars" with home made Clamato. I'm intrigued. Cocktail hour may have a Canadian twist today.
Time for a resetWell we changed our mind on island away from the island time. The seas are so rough they wanted 2x more money to drive us over. Plus with the cloud/wind it didn't look like a great beach day so we aborted mission. Plus: my back has been a little angry ad we walked by a yoga studio with a class starting in 10 minutes! So I did my back a favour by getting my yoga on :)
ThailandWow! This place is spectacular! A beautiful beach and accommodations that are far better than our Mae haad accommodations for even cheaper! Looking forward to a day chillin on the beach tomorrow then koh Tao the next set of beaches....
Thailand
We arrived at our new digs for the next 2 nights. The full moon party is cancelled due to the Kings death. We think this is a good thing because apparently this party is really insane with literally thousands of people coming from other islands and other parts of koh pangnan. Were thinking it will be much more toned down without the loud sound stages and presumably less people.
We had a greatRead more
ThailandWe are staying in a little bungalow on the beach here on Mae Hat beach. Missing the luxury of the resort but the view (and the price) can't be beat. We are getting picked up this morning to start our scuba course (PADI open water certification). Sounds like it is just us and a French guy in the class! We asked about diving here versus koh Tao and it sounds like it is cheaper in koh Tao because theRead more
Time for a resetGood news! The French guy didn't show up...well he did but he "wasn't feeling well". From the smell I detect a hangover. So Mikk and I get private diving lessons with this awesome German dude named Nicky. His hair is amazing. Picture and 80's hair band hair + sun bleached and salty. Oh and he had a large spider in his hair that Mikk noticed once we got in the water. The thing was massive (huntsman spider we think?) And then it ran across the water....that should not physically be possible. Arachcmaphobic Mikk will not be able to forget that ever.
ThailandWaiting our boat to koh phangan at the pier. It's a pretty day ☀️
Nicola CampbellScuba diving? Meant to suggest Something re: scuba diving - for a school program, make sure they have a pool .... they shouldn't be taking you out into open water until you do a lot in the pool/dry land first
Thailand
