Arriving in Koh Samui.....sun was blazing down and we were being fronted with 'taxi?' coming at us from all directions! After only 30 minutes on a boat we just wanted to slop out on a bed....the heat is tiring you know! Finally getting a good price for our destination the taxi driver had no idea where our place was....great!!
