Gulf of Thailand

Its been a while since we last updated the website, as the gulf is so much more expensive than in Bankgkok or the north so time spent on the internet was mainly used for emails! First off on a good note, Tim successfully completed his diving course which he can use internationally to further his experience diving! unfortunately i was unable to complete the course as my sinuses with hayfever was causing me trouble with my breathing underwater and i could not use my nose to clear my mask of water. i have been referred however and i can carry on the course anywhere else, as long as my sinuses are clear, however this isnt going to happen anytime soon, so we left koh tao as planned on the 16th May to arrive on Ko Samui to a beutiful beach bungalow with fantastic views of Lamai Beach.


we checked out the sights and places to eat and found ourselves a great little roadside diner - Ninja Crepes......and oh my god, they do the best food ever and were brilliant hosts! we ended up eating here for breakfast lunch and dinner!

A funny sight on Ko Samui which is often frequented by tourists and locals are the two rock formations that lie south of Lamai Beach. They are supposed to represent the spirits of a couple that lost their lives to the sea and so their spirits took to shapes in the rocks, tims photo next to the lady spirit (for want of a better or rather the more obvious word!!!) is one of the best! the rock in my photo is not so impressive!!!!!
