We were all very sad to leave The Sanctuary, mainly because we knew that going to Koh Samui meant that Craig was leaving that day. His flight home was a couple of days earlier than ours so he had a flight booked from Koh Samui to Bangkok to then get his onward flight. We got a boat to Koh Samui and when we arrived we went for a quick drink before taking Craig to the airport. The owners of the cafe we were at also happened to have a taxi as well as being very friendly so they offered to take Craig to the airport and then find us somewhere to stay. After saying our goodbyes to Craig:( we found a guest house to stay at, which was pretty much on the beach :) We found somewhere to have lunch then we chilled on the beach. Debs and I (Anna) got pedicures on the beach for about £1.70 each! I was a little embaressed though, as the ladies that were doing our pedicures were clearly laughing at my feet and after the lady that was doing Debbie's feet had finished, she had to help the lady do mine!! Seriously, they can't be that bad!!
We went for a meal that night at a rather posh restaurant on the beach
Anna and Debs get some on-beach pampering
. We had barbequed seafood and many cocktails. They kept getting confused with the orders though and Debs ended up not getting her fish :( but they brought her out a banana split to say sorry, which made her smile :) Many, many cocktails later we paid the biggest bill we had had for any meal all holiday (still incredibly cheap though, considering the seafood, starters, puddings and cocktails we had). Not quite the same without Craig though. We went on to another bar for a while and made friends with a thai man called Mr Jack. Another drink or two later we went back to our guest house. The next morning we had some breakfast in a german cafe (random) and then had to say our goodbyes to Will and Debs as we had to go to the airport to fly back to Bangkok for another night before we flew home. It was very hard saying goodbye. Tears were shed! It was an awesome holiday and it was so good to see Will and Debs. Here's to the next visit :)Back to Will n Debs........
After the guys left we felt a bit lost and decided to leave Koh Samui the next day. Off to the other side of the peninsular.............
