Today has been a pretty low key day. Our walk last night led us to the beach and all the beach bars so we didn't get back to our room for bed until 3am. Perhaps the red bull in our bucket kept us up or going ahead another 5 hours in time. Probably a combination of the two.
We ended up hanging out at "stones bar" where the party was happening. After who knows how long and some buckets of beer. Yes they give big beers in buckets too, we headed back to the room to call it a night.
We stayed in bed until 11 and then went in search of delicious food. It was pouring rain really hard so we put on our jackets and set out. We found a little back alley looking place and grabbed a seat. I had a pad Thai and Niki chicken and fried rice noodles. It was of course very good.
After food we went back for showers and then another wander. The walk led us to a beach bar where we sat with a beautiful view and had a papaya and a coconut shake and a big local beer. We hung out here for a few hours reading and enjoying the view.
It's too bad we have rain today because we were supposed to take a sunset tour today snorkeling and seeing the beach from the movie "the beach". Too bad! Perhaps tomorrow we will take one of the many taxi boats over to the island to check it out on our own. See how the weather is and what we feel like. Sometime tomorrow we will be taking another ferry to Koh Lanta where we will stay for 3 nights.
Bummer! We just found a taxi boat that could take us tomorrow as well as a snorkeling tour to 3 awesome spots. Unfortunately we just found out that tomorrow there is only one ferry boat leaving from here to Koh Lanta at 1130am. We probably won't have time for the snorkeling trip. We have emailed a place in Koh Lanta about a four islands tour. Hopefully that one will work out.
Off to bed. It's already midnight here somehow. The whole day disappeared today. Early morning to repack our bags and if the weather is good see if there are taxi boats at the pier early enough for us to take a ride before we leave
