Poshing it up in Koh Samui
So we are waaaaaaaaaaaaay behind in our blog entries, sorry everyone. It's tricky as internet costs a bit and usually it's more the time that we don't have to write it all up and more so, upload the photos.
Anyway Koh Samui....aaaah the hotel we stayed in Koh Samui!!!! We were lucky enough to get a 5 star plus plus hotel through work for penuts in Koh Samui, just near Lamai which is about 15 minute drive from the crazy Chewang (party) town.
Basically, our two nights and three days on Koh Samui included enjoying and eating as much of the free breakfast as possible as late as possible (so not to have to buy lunch!), sipping cocktails by the infinity pool, resting in the luxury of our a/c room and...perhaps venturing out in the evening to find some food!
I did try my hand at some Mui Thai (Thai Boxing) (pics to prove), although being in the dress wasn't very convincing! The hotel also did this thing where at sunset we were given a cocktail (!) and a lantern which you light the bottom, write some stuff on it (mostly
mushing I love you forever stuff!) and then let it float away into the sky! They floated for ages before finally disappearing into the nights sky.
Literally, that's what we did! I know bad, we didn't see anything really - but hey, we made that our 'honeymoon of the honeymoon'!
We left Koh Samui by boat and took the ferry to Koh Pha Ngan...our real Thailand experience started here!

What are you doing to that tree jessica?
Ooh, now that looks like my kind of place. I also want a honeymoon suite and to be lighting those gorgeous thai lanterns with mushy messages! How sweet. Seriously, that place looks awesome. I have no idea how you guys are going to settle back in the reality of life after all of this. Enjoy what is left of your honeymoon and keep safe. Love you both and miss you like crazy.
