Got up and checked out of My Way, we said our farewells to Dingo, a dog we had acquired and head off in the taxi, we said goodbye to Sarah who was heading off to Scabby Krabbi, and we went for food at the Green Restaurant, mmmm good ole days!!! Same man, no teeth, but new and improved bathroom facilities!! Still the same ole pot of chilli sauce placed on table with the same ole ramble from him about spicy food. We then went to catch boat over to Koh Tao, and Lisa and Gary were already on the boat! So after the intial hugs and kisses of hello, we settled on the top deck for a rather bumpy journey!! The sea spray was a blessing when it hit us!!
We arrived on Koh Tao and were imediatley jumped up by all the folks trying to get us to stay at their resorts, so we opted for a drink and sit down first then got a taxi, for what it seemed all over Koh Tao before finally settling on one of the first places someone had tried to get us to stay at the dock, always the way!!! We all checked in and were really happy with the choice, rooms were massive and quiet, although somehow I ended up sharing with Dunc, so we were married immediately what with not wanting to live in sin!!!
We went out for dinner at an italian restaurant, well of course, we were in Thailand!!! I did not feel too well, so tried eating to make feel better to no avail, so I turned in early, with the assurance of cold pizza for brekkie!!
04/01/08
Felt all better by the morning andf the cold pizza was ace!!! We wnet down to the safety stop, where we had had a drink the day before, where the others all had breakfast baps, I was gutted i had had the cold pizza then, they looked Proper!!! then the Lads went off fishing for the day and the girlies went to Sairee Beach, we laid there and had a swim, and some fresh coconuts before heading back up the road to the 7 11 for crisps etc to take back to resort to sit chill and chat, when we came out of 7 11, who should go past on their moped, but Tim Titman, we had only just been taling about the possiblility as to whether we would see him, and there he was!!!
So chatted with him and arranged to meet later at the Tattoo bar, his hangout. We got back to the Bungalows, and who should be sitting there but Chloe!! So we chatted for a while and she said when she had got off the boat andasked where Happy Bungalows were, a guy had found the owner, who we now called Mum, who was very excited chloe has been looking for her resort, gave her lift on her moped back to resort, where chloe had explained in best boken english that she was looking for us lot. Mum confirmed we were staying there, and Chloe had also rang Dunc from boat, who had told her where we were staying and actually saw chloe's boat from their longtail and we waving at her!!
So we all got ready and then went to meet Tim and Tattoo bar, the lads had caught 7 fish on thier trip, which they had dropped off in a restaurant, so we could go there later for dinner! We had a good little chat with Tim before we headed off for dinner, us girls decided t opt out of fish and settle for a curry instead. however the fish was not too bad, we were all a little put off by the bright green bones!!! We then went to the turtle rooftop terrace, so Dunc could have "Sex with a shark" it was a cocktail, before going back to bungalows. Another early morning tomorrow as heading off to Ko Samui
