We are now in Koh Samui, it is an island off the east coast of Thailand. After Koh Lanta it was a bit of a let down coming here! Everything is geared up for tourists who want to get pissed!and you feel like you are getting ripped off the whole time, funny thing is there is hardly anyone here! Just lots of very empty pubs, one bonus is you can get some normal food yey!
Some parts would have been really nice if they hadn't been trashed or completely overrun with resorts, you cant even get to the beech without going through a resort! It hasn't all been bad though, we had a good night out where we saw a ladyboy show, found a great rock pub that played everything we asked them to and then followed by a band at a reggae bar!! Bad heads in the morning!
Did manage to find one quiet beech and some good waterfalls for Simon to try and climb up! and the hotel is really nice, even got a balcony, for the bargain price of £10!
Waterfall, what more can i say!
Yes we are shiney, was very hot!!
Sun set from the beech near our hotel
Grandmother rock!! we have been reduced to going to see this to keep ourselves ammused!!
And of course grandfather rock, was actually right next to grandmother rock too.
The only empty beech in Koh Samui, the water was so shallow, it had actually got hot, it was like having a bath!
The magic gardens, at the top of a mountain that our poor scooter only just made it up! was quite eerie, just needed some mist and it would have been in a horror movie, old statues everywhere staring at you!
Hi Simon and Andrea I know Koh Samui quite well I go to a restaurant in Manchester of the same name and one of the owners comes from there. I won't tell him it wasn't your favourite though even though, by the looks of it, the food was.
