We spent 3 lovely days in my favourite place in Thailand, Ko Mok. I came here before but it definately deserved another visit so that Gaz could see it as well. The island is part of the trang province and after spending the night in the city of trang we woke up in the morning to get the minibus to the port where we would be picked up by boat and taken to Ko Mok. It is so so beautiful and as the boat pulls round the corner the view of the cliffs that fall into the calmest of clear waters and white sand makes you want to never leave.

Hello all! Enjoying the sun in Aus. It is soooo hot here but it helps to have a beutiful beach about 500 meters from your little hut! Last time I updated this blog I was in Kao Sok National park and that evening a few of us walked through some palm farms (which harvest the fruit) to get a cave temple. It was a prety cool temple where monks even teach the locals english and they have a coffin with the mummified body of the first monk to discover the cave. There was also a picture board with some animals and mythical creatures that people had believed they saw in the cave. We went in further and pun pun our tour guide convinced us to climb down a dark hole to touch the holy water below. ... read more
