Saz and Dave's travels
Today we had a nice lie in and were relieved to see the rain had finally stopped and it was a beautiful day! We met up with Rochelle for breakfast and also Zach (from the cambodia tour) who got the night bus down last night and arrived here this morning. We went to a cafe just round the corner from our hotel which was slightly strange as the portions were miniscule and the waiter whispered in Zach's ear that he was wonderful and very handsome! After quickly paying the bill we went in search of the beach, which was about a 10 minute walk away. The beach here is massive - 6km long- but it's really nice as there aren't any hotels or bars really to clutter the place up just a few palm trees and straw umbrellas. We splashed out and payed about a dollar each for comfy beds and Rochelle got her legs 'threaded' - kind of waxed using cotton thread. The water was a bit churned up today because of the weather yesterday and the waves were massive! When we went in the water for a 'swim' the waves were so high you had to kind of dive through them which I didn't realise at first and got sucked right under and bashed about which was a bit scary and embarrasing as my bikini kind of fell down! The waves were just so powerful it wasn't nice and we didn't stay in for long. We stayed a bit longer on the beach and Rochelle got an oil massage, then we went back to the hotel for a shower.
We had tea at a fish-barbeque restaurant which was good although we were sat right next to the lobster tank where the waiters kept plucking out lobsters to show people before they ate them - it seemed really mean.
We are just on the internet now updating the journal for you to read although you have all probably lost interest by now! Dave just had a web camera msn with neil m which was cool. We have changed our plans again and we are now going to fly from Da Nang to Singapore then up to Phuket instead of going back to Bangkok as it works out cheaper that way! In the process of booking the tickets now!
