We're doing great, currently enjoying the sunshine on the island of ko lanta.
Beautiful place, not very developed, and not very busy. I think the beach is about 2km
long? Great swimming, accommodation is a simple bamboo hut just off the beach, $20 per
day.
We spent 2 days in bangkok, enjoying the chaos, very delicious food, christy enjoys the browsing cheap shopping (unfortunately for her, I'm less interested). Enormous city, lots to see and do. We visited the national museum, it was
almost too much to see in one day. It's surprisingly easy to get around here, I expected
more headaches with travel connections, but the tourist path is well beaten. Still, we're
doing things on the cheap, so some adventure is yet to be found. It looks like some of
the major resorts around here will pick up people from the airport, making for a stress
free holiday. Lots of people with young kids on this island as well.
From here we will catch a ferry to ko phi phi in a couple days. We're going to spend the majority of this month in the south of the
country, island hopping. We're glad we came to ko lanta first, this island is very
peaceful.
Christy just received an email from macewan, she passed her acupuncture tests!
