Swiss family Robinson or McGillivray

The original Swiss family, the Robinsons, were stranded on a deserted island , somewhere between Europe and Australia . They, too, had 4 children, although in their case, 4 boys and not 2+2. I should also note that Mr Robinson was a pastor, not something I ever considered, even if my looks and / or behaviour are angelic. Of course, the most important thing is that, like them, we are on a deserted island. Well, by modern standards deserted . You see, we are on Ko Jum island in the Andaman sea, and we are the only ones here. (Except, of course, for the adorable hotel staff). It's off-season, and in the off-season, the ferries don't come here. You can only get here by hiring a rather dodgy boat. (We came at night, and it had no lights, no navigation, no depth warning, etc. Just lucky the sky was clear and we had half moon).

We came here to recover from our year-long travel, which is far more exhausting than you might imagine. Good that we planned this week and another one on the next island, with no objective other than to relax and take it easy.

We could go eat about 500m away, but that feels like too much effort. So our day is breakfast at 10:00. Sleep or build sandcastles till lunchtime at 2 pm. Swim/rest/ build sandcastles till 19:00. Dinner, play cards, and beer for the adults. Sleep, repeat. I don't think we can turn that into a best-selling book.Meer informatie
