Villa Liberg Thalang

... went body surfing. After awhile, I got bored, so I went to build an underground castle (as I call them). It was fun going snorkelling and I made a sand mine and Dad made the best sand castle I ever saw. It had perfect walls and perfect castles, but it was not even strong enough to stand a touch.

Jacob's journal:

Yesterday we took a 20 minute “tuk tuk” (a large cross between a car and tuk tuk,) to an awesome beach. Since I already ...

... bedroom was delightfully made up and frequently changed, cleaned and appropriate mossies repellents updated every day.

A word of caution, the mini bar was refilled at regular intervals, I'm not sure how many we drunk, or how many times the Thai girls refilled it, but it can be expensive! Sanga Beer does go down rather well! The view as you can see from the front living room was amazing, i will post some more of those later.

... him update the rest of the story on Phuket Town. Phuket is very Resorty and again charges more than other places within Thailand because they can. On our final night we headed into the rowdy area of Patong which ia full of loud bars and hostess bars. That day a US navy boat had just pulled in so there was a lot US navy personal looking forward to the cheapness of the bars and other things. BAsically in the very tourist areas it is impossible to go into a bar and have a quiet ...

... make my way around via the beaches on the other side. Not recommended. The descent was good fun, climbing with tree routes and rocks rather than the man made steps on the way up. I reached a beach on the other side and couldn't face climbing back up or paying the 10pound taxi charge (by longboat, there are no cars on the island) so decided I could make it on my own. Ended up clambering over rocks and even wading at one stage. In hindsight it was ...

... go to a wakeboard park..." "Well the airport is still closed, and they haven't made any progress towards opening it. I don't think it's going to be open tomorrow either; things may get worse. I talked to your Dad and he suggested you go with the back up plan, and just leave now." "OK, I'll pack up and had out for the train station." "OK, let me know if you have any problems. Call me when you get your tickets." "OK, thanks for the heads up. Bye." "Bye"........... That shattered my day of ...

... the computer, im backing my chair up...anyway, the first nite we arrived here there were three beach parties we decided to check out...wouldve been a great idea if i had chosen to familiarize myself with the island first...after hitting a really chill bar called the hippie bar, a more dance scene called cancun bar, and finishing up the night at the tiger bar, everyone in the initail crew split ways...i found myself on the other beach ...

... screeching started again. Something about it costing 3 bart and being at number 2. Number 2 what? I asked but all I got was a screech and "You pay me 3 bart" in return. I turned away from the screeching but the woman came to my ear and started demanding 3 bart. I told her to forget it and went off in search of another toilet, which I found in a very friendly tourist shop. And that one was free. Bonus. When I got back Ed was taking a photo of ...

Alarm at 6 am. Got up and made myself some burnt toast. I think of my dad every time I eat it. And for some reason I like to burn it on purpose. Why I'm craving burnt toast I won't know... Cut myself up a very sour green apple and realized one knuckle was sore and my right foot. I got extremely tired at the moment and looking back it was almost like a self defense mechanism. I decided to skip the morning practice and sleep ...

... cop. This was not much of a surprise considering the circumstances. "Sorry about that officer. We didn't know where to sleep; we're not from around here." I said groggily while waving my hand vaguely in the direction of our car and it's out of state license plates. Praying that he would pay more attention to the fact that we were far from home then how dilated our pupils happened to be that morning. "Just pack up and get going, okay?" He ...

... as possible! We had selected an anchorage for our last night but when we got there we discovered once again that the wind was in the wrong direction and the anchorage was too rough. We continued north to Koh Naka Noi, otherwise known as Pearl Island (p. There is still a pearl farm in the waters adjacent to the recommended anchorage, so we spent a long time finding a secure spot. It ...
