Ko Pha Ngan

25th May

After quite a comfy train journey we take a coach to the pier and then a boat out to Ko Pha Ngan. After arriving at our accommodation (a beach hut, literally on the beach) we both crash and sleep until sunset. When we wake up I wake Charlotte too and she seems concerned - asking me where the group has gone. We're both finding it odd readjusting to not having everyone else around!

After dinner we sit out on some sun loungers as neither of us feel sleepy. It's a much more comfortable temperature here than in Bangkok - shorts and t-shirt at 11pm is just about perfect.

Wake up early because of the heat, our fan hardly manages to give a light breeze. I update my blog in the afternoon, but pay about 3p/min for the internet! The islands seem quite a bit more expensive for everything, but it's worth it just to be on a beach like this. I fall asleep in the afternoon - getting into a very European cycle while I'm here. Taking a siesta is defiantly the best sleeping pattern when it's very warm.

The boat out to Ko Pha Ngan

May

Explore the beach a bit in the morning and decide to go snorkeling in the afternoon. The snorkeling is very good, but also very painful as we didn't rent any fins. After about half an hour we've had enough of kicking rocks and scraping our legs, so we head back to the shore. Finish off our day with cocktails while watching the sun go down.
