so just got back from koh panghan, had a wiked time. its so different to bangkok, very quiet and relaxed made a nice change of pace!
we went mainly for the half moon party, but was nice to chill out on the beach for a few days, catch up on much needed sleep and see the beaches.
didnt do anything to be honest whilst we were down there except sunbathe and my tans coming along nicely :). arrived at about 8am, got ourselves sorted, made a few friends, some swedish guys and also a few locals working on our site, who came in very handy!
the party was amasing! had a few drinks in the site bar whcih was a very nice bar 2! then went down to the bar on the beach and had a few cocktails with the thai guys b and golf. really nice people so friendly, i was quite ashamed that we didnt know any thai and they were fluent in english! then off 2 the party, which we had been told was on the beach but no even cooler it was in the jungle! so sureal, we went to a rave in the jungle haha!
and it was so much fun, loads of people all nationalities, fire dancers, djs, cheesy trance(if thts possible), lots of fluorescent paint, flasing lights, lots of alchol loads of fun! although sdaying that im pretty sure we were the most sober people there!
knowing the thai guys was very handy, they got in for free because they were locals, got us chepaer taxis, showed us round and generally looked after us for the night which was nice! didnt end there though, got in a atxi and went off to the valentines party as it was on avlentines night funily enoguh haha. on the beach, so got a mix of both, wa also fun, not as busy and not as much going on, some guys skipping with fire, alex and kady nealry joined in thank god didnt when we saw a guy get rather burnt! stayed for a little bit then went home. danced all night loads of fun!!!!!!!!!
next day got up late, well what we thoguht was latev they seeemd to think was early but yeh got up late, sunbathed for a long time wandered into the tiny town, grabbed some food at a very nice restaurant (still so cheap though) had a few drinks at the bar and then went to bed for an early night!
left koh panghan on sat mornin and spent the day and night in koh samui also very nice, very similar but busier and bigger than koh panghan, more shops and more to do. didnt have long there though . alex did manage to lock us out the room for a while though oh dear but wa sall ok! wont be guving her the keys again though. woke up verye alry again for a flight at 6, found a cockroach in my bed, not the nicest of experiences but wasnt as abd as i thoguht and it quickly scuttled off!
back in bangkok now, nice to be back as theres more to do. but do miss the islands there just so beautifull and relaxed! went ot the weekend market today, great photo opportunity for me, really cool place alot cheaper for souvenirs than weve seen so far so stocked up, ahd a wander round, left when it got too hot. had to hanga round for ages while our roomw as getting ready so we could shower which was so nice when we did and here i am typing now! ill update again soon, but off upto chaing mai!
