Along with a couple of our tour buddies, Suzy and Long we made our way to Koh Samet for a holiday! Got ourselves all organised and sorted the transport from an agent down Khao San. The journey was only supposed to take 2.5 hours. I think the Thais need to adjust their watches.
Had no accommodation sorted but with a lonely planet under my arm we sorted out a couple of beach huts. Basic, but cheap!
Basically spent 4 days chilling out on the beach and eating dinner on the beach surrounded by lanterns and fire dancers at night. Pretty awesome.
Not so awesome was the amount of Western, balding, overweight men strolling up and down the beach with small attractive Thai ladies. It cannot be true love every time...
Long left us to continue his travels and the 3 of us headed back to Bangkok so Suzy could catch her onward flight to Oz. This included a speedboat of doom and a drunk man falling off the pier and cutting up his leg then appearing on our bus, bloody bandage, groaning and all. Great.
Booked into a hotel that specifically had a pool in Bangkok, got attitude off the lady boys at reception, had more buckets down Khao San and didn't use the pool.
