Unfortunately they didn't let us stay here for long - but these 'magic gardens' at the top of one of Koh Samui's mountains was easily the highlight of the whole day

I wouldn't let Aaron go on top of the jeep at first...but he eventually co-erced me into riding on top with him. We had to hang on for dear fucking life, as the 4x4 jeep hurtled us up and down the mountain, swinging into tree branches and spider webs. It was like a rollercoaster ride without the safety straps. Aaron thought it was the most exhilirating experience he's had yet. I thought it was the closest experience to shitting one's pants yet.
