On a spur of the moment decision we decided to go with our English friend Amanda and an English guy, Kevin, to Thailand and try to get some great weather. After squishing up in our rental car we returned it and hopped on a boat from Langkawi to Satun, which is a town in southern Thailand.

Spectacular scenery, what about the water!! Your photos are so clear, postcard quality. Malay Bay certainly looks appealing, great for the movies! You certainly captured a lot on camera despite your health problems, well done!! Love to you both, from Ngaire,xx

Wow
Such stunning places and such wonderful photos. I love the sexist sign outside the restuarant. Am going to use it as a starter for a discussion in Social Studies. My TRTM kids will love it too - ladyboys will really get them going.

hello
Thanks guys. oh yeah lady boys....everywhere! they are promoted for shows and things but it didn't really interest us. Kath yeah just check lunar calendar to try and avoid the full moon party time (unless you wanted to go). The water is truly amazing. And alisha, we could really contribute to your dvd watching - they are $1 each here so when we miss western things we just buy one. Will see if we can find some you'd like!

Kevin's Thai thoughts
Hi guys. Great to read your blog and see the lovely photos You say the pollution is bad. Is this before or after Matt added his personal form of pollution on no less than 4 times on the boat trip! Ladyboys!!! I've lived such a sheltered existence It's neat to hear how it's going, so keep the blogs coming. Love from Kevin P.S. Janey, how do I send this now?
