Hi everyone, Becky here!! So after a day in Bangkok, we got a tuk tuk to TAT where we had left our bags for the day, only to find that it was closed with our bags locked inside!!! With our train to Surat Thani leaving in a few minutes, we somehow managed to get our bags and get to the train just in time (de-ja-vu)?!?! The journey was due to take 12 hours, this time we had sleepers so were able to get some rest!! After a 15 hour journey we finally made it to Surat Thani, being directed to a hot busy bus, then transferred to a coach full of people all off the port, where we caught a ferry across to Koh Samui taking 1.5 hours.
Looks like paradise island, white sand beaches and crystal clear waters. We arrived at our resort pleasantly surprised!! Big clean room with air con, a pool and right on the beach!! We spent a few days by the pool and beach relaxing or recovering from the night before. Emily got a tattoo (just thought i'd slip that one in)!! One day we rented out and open top jeep, only 12quid!!! Had a nice drive around the island, until the car had a funny turn (while emily was driving) and basically broke down. While waiting for the guys from the rental company to come fix the car, it decided to pour with rain, being an open top car, this prooved interesting!! The popper-on cover wouldnt stay in place, leaving kerry in the back getting absolutely soaked!!! We got back in one piece!!
Next stop Koh Phangan...
