We are now in Koh Samui and once again have been laying on the beach for most of our time here. The day we arrived we went for a walk along the beach to go and visit the big standing Budda and had a look at the small shops around the area in which we are staying but that has been really all we have done during the day, it really is too hot to go far. We have both been suffering abit from all the thai food so we haven't wandered to far just to be on the safe sid...

We had to wear clothing that covered all our body and we had to carry our ...

It was set in the start of the jungle next to rice fiels.....absolutely breathtaking. She served us a traditional lunch and after we went on a bike ride. We had to ride 4km to the nearby village, round the village and back on what I can only describe as the oldest bit of tin I've ever seen and to make things worse my be...
