Another day in paradise ...

Yep, it's another day in warm weather, white beaches and clear skies.... Do you like the picture of my bungalow?

Who can complain? Not I! Well maybe a little bit... I do have this massive "scrape" up my leg, which aches when I walk and I have managed to sunburn my forehead!

I was stressing about my flights out of here, cos the times were too short, but now it's all good cos the helpful people on reception have fixed it all up for me, well at least I hope, the language barrier is a bit scary... I guess we just have to hope for the best! I just checked the online view flights thing and now I can't see our flights, hopefully it's just a temporary thing...

Yesterday on our bike ride, I bought the coolest (literally) pair of Thai pant yesterday, purple and very very comfy.

Last night we went down to the town - cos we are up over a hill on a seperate beach - and watched a movie and had some food, and then watched Germany flog Sweden in the football.

This is the beach where it all happens at night, the alcahol you can buy from the seven-11 and then just sit on the beach and soak up the entertainment...

Tomorrow is our last day on Koh Phangan. We are going on a snorkeling trip to a smaller island called Koh Tao. Last time I snorkeled it was a bit of a disaster, so we will wait and see what happens. It was one of the more expensive tours, which takes us to the island 1.5 hours away in a a/c catermaran, at a whopping 1300 baht (50 bucks). Things are very cheap here even though it sounds expensive... I almost balked at the cost, cos it's a lot of Thai money even though it really isn't much in comparison to what it might cost on the barrier reef in Australia.

Went for a walk to get some photos of phangers... to share with all - sorry for delay but internet is slow here! This is the same beach as above, the taxi boats waiting for a fare!
