Ao Prao Resort Koh Samet

... our open mouths. As well as the fire show we could watch fireworks and fire lanterns rise into the sky from all along the bay. The serenity was only broken by the pack of wild dogs that roamed the resort, often deciding that 4am was a good time for a fight and a big barking session. The earplugs came in useful once again. <br><br><br> Thankfully the weather had picked up as we ...

... upd*ted on scores. There w*s obviously no internet *t the resort *nd we only h*d 6 tv ch*nnels *ll in Th*i. I w*s dying!

... Emma and hlen were lying on the floor crying a lot and there was blood all over Helen and a big deep looking wound on Emma's leg. Apparently they had just lost control coming down the hill and were both thrown off after rollig down the very steep hill for about 10 metres and they slid quite far acoss the rocky dirt track floor with the moped having landed on Emma's leg. Not nice. I realised that we had all stupidly decided not to bring much with us and ...

Koh Samet<br><br>The journey from Pattaya to Koh Samet consisted of an hour's taxi ride and 1/2 hour boat ride - speed boat to be precise. The pressure points worked a treat - I actually felt fine the whole journey despite the extremely hot weather.<br><br>The beach hut accommodation was beautiful and basic - but Spence and I opted to sleep on the beach instead :o) The food on this island is amazing - gorgeous sea food, which I couldn't really eat but I did ...

... vege dishes anywhere. I have ate 2 fish dishes since being in Thailand, naughty i know but i did fell incredibly guilty afterwards so I've decided to just struggle on. The fish dishes i ate weren't even that good... crab sticks and a tuna sandwich.... i could have made a better choice! Though the other evening we visited a posh restaurant .... a floating restaurant that we had to get a boat too, it was beautiful. It was ...

... I cannot draw. I tried to draw a man scuba diving and I drew a muppet with wings. It's bad. I mean really bad. So, here I am with this terrible lesson plan, with a terrible dialogue, in a hundred degree heat, sweating profusely and I almost touch a monk. I'm a touchy girl. I grew up in a family who hugged each other all the time. I use touch to tell people that I need to get by them. I use touch to tell ...

... amazing. Were off now for a quick night cap with a new friend Paul, he's a proper hard core traveller, we're learning lots, (as if we keep spending money like we are we'll be home in a week) he stays in the cheapest accomodation on the Island, but goes to the most exspensive hotel every morning for the complimentary breakfast &amp; so he can request a clean towel, legend!! Ok, that'll do for this instalment hope your all well back in the UK, missing you all Lots of love Mike

... lightning had started and we were about as far as you can get from civilisation on an Island this small, we were riding for a little bit then we were a bit worried about the wheel rim, so i got off and jogged along side, roughly 15 seconds and one hill later, i told muzz to leave me and save himself, but he wouldn't leave one of his men behind, what a trooper !! Fortunatley we were saved by a passing policeman who nearly fell off his bike ...

... walked to Ploy Talay and sat at a table on the beach. It was really nice. We were sitting there and a girl approached me. It was my sister's friend from back home! Wow what a coincidence. They were even staying at the same place as we were too. Well we finished our dinner (it was just okay) and all headed inside for the music. They were good and by 11pm it was pretty busy. It was a Philippine band, and M had ...
