Leaving the Islands

---

Due to unreliable Thai transport and the weather we decided to make our way back to Bangkok a day early.

Spoke to the staff at the Buri resort and they arranged a taxi for us!! Unfortunately they had completely the wrong information and we had a hour long goose chase going from port to port trying to catch a Ferry to Ko Samui. Arrived at Big Buddah beach which looked fantastic. From there we caught a flight to Bangkok.

D loved the airport at Ko Samui - very quaint - felt very Hawaiian!

Learn't that 11 people had been killed on Koh Samui over the 3/4 day period of storms!!

Flew into Bangkok and stayed at a hotel close to the airport it was called The Miracle Grand Hotel. Very nice - once again got a last min deal so wasn't too expensive at all.

Spence - does the photo title "Spencoconut" refer to your drink or your head?
