Bart got to talking to a few people and I headed for the beach. Nice day to lay out in the sun. After a while, I was in the water. We couldn't lay out to long today, because the sun was so hot. Bart snorkeled for a bit, I swam. We ending up talking to a bunch of girls from Sweden that were in the water as well. They were on their way home and had already been here a year ago, so they gave us some travel tips.
Went make onto the beach to lay out and a guy came walking down the beach with pants and sarongs. The girls purchased the sarongs and I bought a pair of pants. One of the girls showed me how to wear them and I was set. I needed something new in my wardrobe, just getting a little tired of my clothes.
After a long day on the beach, we headed to the city, had some food and were off to the Thai Boxing fight. It was interesting, never say a fight like that back home. Dancing around the ring thanking their teacher and the methods of fighting was different as well. They kicked a lot instead of using their hands. We were originally sitting in the back, when 2 Americans came along with girls they meet. After a while the girls were very drunk, pushing each other around falling on the ground. We were pushed a couple times as well. We couldn't take much off it, talking all the time. So we moved to the second row. Better seats, no one talking and we were able to get some good shots.
Headed back to the bungalow for a nights sleep..
