Our TukTuk driver Neng, on our way home from Irie where we saw a Japanese reggae performer - fun scene!
Sucky pig loved the view from the beach at Relax Bay.
Groovy fishing area just off the beach from where we stayed...
Our favorite and most spicy dish of Ko Lanta -
minced pork salad with bean thread noodle! Holy hotness!
'
Bob' offered us a special for 10 nights, zero dollars to stay on Ko Lanta in the Bob Marley Room.
We have been basking on the beach on the Andaman coast in Southwestern Thailand - internet access is a little trickier, and really - why sit at the computer when we could be soaking in the sun and splashing in the tropical waters??
Took the overnight train from Bangkok to Trang on Wednesday night - quite a long journey, about 17 hours! Fortunately there was a disco party car where we could drink cold beers and play cards while the crew of Brit backpackers played DJ. The copious beer did the trick for lulling us to sleep on our stuffy top bunks.
From Trang we hopped on a 'mini-bus', aka cramped and heinously hot van for 3 hours down to paradise! Definitely worth the effort as we enjoyed thai massages on the beach during sunset!!!

Very nice, also it is low season so we are practically by ourselves there....
Needless to say we are eating well, lots of delicious local Thai food
Tomorrow we hop on an early ferry to Ko Phi Phi - Katie has been there before and it is apparently just breathtakingly gorgeous. It is where they filmed the movie 'The Beach'
Hopefully we will soon have some more convenient internet access so that we can upload some of our fabulous photos. I know that Sucky Pig's fan club is going into withdrawl...

I can hardly type because I am clapping my hands in excitement for you girls (i should say women - since you are both post 30 now)! What an awesome adventure. I wish I was sucky pig!! Have fun in paradise! peace - 127 albion
ReplyDeleteWhat a great looking place. And those prices are amazingly cheap.. Massage on the beach at sunset certainly trumps the internet anyday. Have fun at the Pi Pi place. Sucky Pig forever!
