Back at the Resort
2020年3月4日, タイ ⋅ ⛅ 28 °C
Our tour went for 7 hours. Not much walking and the step count today was only 10247. Lots of sitting in the minivan.

Back at the resort for a swim and watching the Sunset.

Dinner was at the same resturant as last night as it is only a 5min walk from the Resort and the food is not bad.

Day finished and time for an icecream and a movie.もっと詳しく

Another Day in Paradise
2020年3月5日, タイ ⋅ ⛅ 29 °C
Another beautiful and lazy day, morning swim, read, breakfast. I love this sort of morning.

Then our little daily walk, we visited the local school this morning the kids are lovely and so appreciative of our gift of books, pens and pencils.

Before heading back to the resort we stopped by our local resturant to purchase takeaway for dinner. Lazy is the best way to describe being on this part of our holidays.

Lunch and more swimming and reading, I am on my 3rd book now.

The afternoon was spent swimming, frying in the sun until I was crispy and of course reading. Basically doing nothing except thinking I would love this life permanently. In my head I have designed our house in the sun by the sea in a land somewhere.

Then a short walk as it was time for a massage. Today the step count was only 3943.

The day is nearing the end as we have a drink on the day bed looking out over the Gulf of Thailand awaiting the next sunset before dinner and a movie. Looking forward to tomorrow another day in paradise.もっと詳しく

Fisherman's Village
2020年3月6日, タイ ⋅ ☀️ 30 °C
This morning was like every other day here. Swim, read, breakfast, swim, read, morning tea, swim and read. John is working on a poster for our Travel and Entertainment Room, more on the poster later. Lunch, swim, read, a short swing and more reading. Finished my 4th book.

Today's adventure was to Fisherman's village for cocktails at Cocotam over looking the beach. Then we walked around the markets I was pretty good and only purchased a few items. Hilda we did get you coconut oil items the shop had changed locations but I still managed to find the store. Time for dinner and we decided on the street food rather than a restaurant. We sat basically where we sat last time in Fisherman's village except now it is a bar where you can bring in the street food provided you purchase a drink. The cocktails where way cheaper than Cocotam and you could actually taste the grog. It was a bit too strong but I managed.

Back at the Resort and still a little warm so we decided on a swim before completing days activities on Find Penguins before a movie. Life is rough.

Not much walking as we took a tuk tuk to Fisherman's Village and back. Total steps 6763.

Tomorrow we leave for Ko Phangan.もっと詳しく

Koh Phangan
2020年3月7日, タイ ⋅ ☁️ 29 °C
Koh Phangan, with an overall area of 167sqkm, is Thailand’s fifth biggest island.

Located 70km from the mainland and just 12km from Koh Samui, Phangan does not have an airport and relies heavily on ferries from the mainland and Koh Samui.

Predominantly made up of granite, Koh Pha Ngan almost unspoilt beauty is accented by a hilly, lush tropical jungle interior, many idyllic, long white-sand beaches and over 20 nearby dive sites.

The main disembarkation points are Thongsala and Haad Rin. We disembarked at Haad Rin.

Transportation is mostly provided by ‘song teaows’, converted pickup trucks that ply the hilly roads and rental jeeps and motorcycles while private taxis can also be hired.

Parts of Phangan – especially between Ban Tai and Haad Rin – are extremely hilly with not the best road conditions so caution should be exercised – especially at night and in adverse weather conditions.

Phangan’s main claim to fame is largely due to its many Full Moon Party, ‘Black Moon’ and just about any other moon beach parties, with the Full Moon celebrations attracting from 10,000 to 30,000 revellers at New Year’s Eve.

Full Moon Party has become a world-famous institution, but its ancestral home remains the crescent cove of Haad Rin Beach on the southernmost tip of Phangan Island in Thailand. More than 12 powerful sound systems turn the 800-metre beach into possibly the most popular open-air nightclub in the world once a month, with a lively festival-like atmosphere, great music and huge quantities of alcohol. This one-of-a-kind event is routinely listed on bucket lists as one of the essential experiences in Thailand which absolutely must be seen to be believed.

As many as 30,000 party people gather on the famous strip of sand to party in the glow of the Earth’s nearest celestial neighbour, right through the night and into the dawn. Due to the cost of cleaning up after such carnage, the local community implemented a 100 baht entry fee to access the beach on the night of Koh Phangan Full Moon Party.

Fingers crossed as the articles we have read indicate that it has been cancelled because of COVID -19.もっと詳しく

Cocohut Village
2020年3月7日, タイ ⋅ ☁️ 30 °C
Now on the Haadrin Queen on our way to Koh Phangan. A driver is waiting for us at the pier ready to take us to Cocohut Village our home for the next 3 days.

When we checked in it was confirmed the full moon party has been cancelled, however, the Resort will be holding its own party with free food and drinks from 7pm tomorrow night.

Our room is quite nice and the resort is just as good. Cocohut Village is a much larger resort than the one on Koh Samui so more people and noise. All good though as it is the Party Island for a reason.

Once unpacked we jumped in a cab and went into town. It was time for my tattoo. I researched a few places and came up with DNA Tattoo as the reviews were quite good and prices where reasonable. No pain and it was completed in just under 2 hours. I found it more painful being still on my side and leg twisted than the actual tattoo. I am very happy with the result.

No swimming or reading this afternoon just watching Netflix while I rested my leg. Later in the afternoon we sat outside and enjoyed a drink overlooking the pool but soon the mozzie's were bad, so we went back inside and watched another interesting show on Netflix.

Dinner time was a short walk up the hill to a local café for pizza as we are getting over the Thai food. Some Italian will be the next best choice.

Back at the resort we went for a short walk around the resort, it is very pretty with all the lights.

Now for icecream and Netflix to see out day 8.

Step count for today 8616.もっと詳しく

Full Moon Party Day
2020年3月8日, タイ ⋅ ⛅ 30 °C
The morning was nice and relaxing, back to breakfast, swimming and reading. We basically did nothing until after lunch. We thought we really needed to do something so a walk to where the Party is meant to be.

The beach is very much like our Aussie beaches, very burnt tattooed people laying in the sand and swimming. Not a lot of people but it is a long beach so the people are spread out. I am sure if the party was on there would be so many more people. I cannot believe this is another one of those places we visit and the reason for coming is cancelled. So many people over reacting to the virus.

Tonight we are going to a Full Moon cocktail Party put on by the Resort with free food and drinks for a few hours.

The Sky Moon Hotel, where the party was held, was very nice with a lovely view over the beach. The food and drinks were plentiful.

We are back at our resort thinking about going for a walk to the Full Moon Party Beach, we did come all this way for a good party but the beach looking down from Sky Moon seams pretty empty.

We walked to the beach anyway and no there were not 30,000 people as usual but maybe 10,000. The music is pumping out and people are having a great time. The fire show was pretty good and the skipping rope on fire was really good. Lot's of people skipping and missing the rope but it was all in good fun.

Not the real party atmosphere but I am saying close enough for this old couple. We enjoyed walking around, feeling like we were at the party without the hassels of a crowd.

Steps today a low 6573.もっと詳しく

More Relaxing
2020年3月9日, タイ ⋅ ☀️ 30 °C
Today is just like the other days, not much happening just relaxing, we will be very well rested by the time we get to Bangkok tomorrow.

After breakfast we went for a walk along the floating jetty, it was really weird walking on it as the waves keep making it move. It was difficult because I was a little scared my knee would give out but it was OK. Back on land we walked along the beach to a walkway which hugs the side of the rocks over the water. Once at the end you find a rather chilled out Restaurant and some cabins, not our style of cabins but the location is great.

Back at our resort time for a swim and you guessed it more reading.

Lunch time and more relaxing and reading before we head into the Jetty area for a check of my tattoo, it is all part of the service to go back a few days later for the artist to check that everything is going well.

Another great massage I must be getting taller with all the stretching and pulling, my muscles are quite relaxed.

Back in the room and watching Netflix we have started watching a series where Forensic Science is the main tool in ascertaining who the murderer is each episode only goes for 20 min or so which is great for holiday watching.

Dinner time we walked up the hill of the Resort for about 3 min to a nice Thai restaurant, then back to our Resort for homemade ice cream for dessert.

Now maybe a movie.

The step count today is 10570 although not high it is the most we have walked since arriving. I guess that is what a relaxing holiday is about.もっと詳しく

Goodbye Koh Phangan
2020年3月10日, タイ ⋅ ☀️ 28 °C
Today we are leaving The Full Moon Party location for a much busier section of our adventure.

Morning was packing, breakfast, doing my blog and some reading before we catch the ferry back to Koh Samui.

Not much relaxing for the remaining 2 weeks. We are off to Bangkok for a few days before we join a tour group.もっと詳しく

旅行者 I didn’t see any reference to playing volleyball on those beach courts... probably to much activity for your kind of holiday 😂
