St Stephens Day

Happy St Stephens Day...We left Kho Phangan after a relaxing 8 days here, more importantly our resort (Haad Tian Beach Resort) I can't fault it one bit, well maybe the staffs taste in music! But credit where credit is due everyone always had a smile on their face and the staff couldn't do enough for you. So a big thanks to Dang, Sow Elzanne, Joe the Driver, The Guy who says KAP alot and the Guy with Dreadlocks (sorry I'm not good with remembering names), and the rest of the staff...you're all a credit to your industry. So off on another ferry to Kho Tao this time, only 45 minutes or so it says...45 minutes equates to over 2 hours in Thai time! Arrived at the island an headed to the Sairee Beach area, with no booking we were winging it I minded the backpacks and Tina went off for half an hour only to come back empty handed, I found out before she came back the fancy resort (which we assumed would be expensive) had a bungalow for 400baht ($12) it was great but only available for 1 night, so feck it we took it anyway...so let that be a lesson don't assume anything! I met an Irish guy who lived here for 9 years I was easily identified by my Dublin jersey, he said he hasn't seen an Irish person in weeks and now there's drives of us here!

So now all the chaos is sorted, what better thing to do then have a swim in the ocean, have a chang and watch the sunset...we had the nicest curries (nice and spicey) so far across the road from the resort.
