Katie and Nicole . . .Thailand 2007/2008

Hello again from Koh Chang after a long day out at sea. Tomorrow we will leave the island and head back to Bangkok. So as a farewell how 'bout a few highlights of our time here . . .

1. Crystal blue ocean, white sandy beaches . . . swimming . . . sunbathing

2. Nicole ordering a whisky coke at one of the bars and receiving a bucket (literally a bucket with a handle and everything- the only thing missing was the shovel) full of whisky coke with 6 straws in it. Good thing she was thirsty! Apparently glasses are a waste of time. Ha.

3. Watching a night time fire dancing performance on the beach.

4. Watching the Simpsons at an outdoor bar while eating French fries and tuna sandwiches.

5. Nicole randomly singing some tunes at an open mic while the Thai folks praised her and announced that she sounded like Norah Jones and Pink put together.

6. Renting air mattresses and floating in the ocean for hours.

7. Snorkeling . . . clear water, dancing fish, stunning coral.

8. Applying greasy sunscreen all day and Aloe Vera at night.

9. Pina Colada . . . Mai Tai . . . Daquiri (fru-fru tropical drinks).

10. Wandering the pier at Bang Bao (the fishing village) and eating the most DELICIOUS food -- crab fried rice and Pad See Ewe with Shrimp . . . . mmmm seafood

peace, katie

p.s. 11. Seeing 4 monkies randomly hanging out in the road.
