Koh Samet Island, one of my favorite places in the world.
We stayed on the western side near the middle of the beach
stretch in well decorated traditional Thai bungalows. 
The island has a poetic history and artists sculptures can be seen along the beach.
It is a favorite stop near the border of Thailand and Cambodia.
Sadly all my photos prior to Kris's arrival were lost when a piece of photo storage
equipment malfunctioned So I have mixed both trips here.

Kris and companion (yes that is a designer monkey suit) The Thais hang them from the mirror
in their cars like air fresheners.

 

G'night everyone, I'm heading home. Lucky an elephant always remembers where I am staying.

The beach, sleeping and eating is encouraged. The water is Luke warm. I can assure you this is a unique beach
experience.


Q: What's better then sleeping on the beach when it's hot?
A: Waking up Aoy  and going jet skiing!

 

A very cool ape.

Well that's a lot of photos to download, so I will stop here, I hope you enjoyed a glimpse into my  adventures
 I return to Thailand in late January 2006. I plan to spend a part of every year there for some time
it's a wonderful place and I haven't seen even 1/4 of the country yet.
I am always happy to offer travel advise.
Sawadee Khap! Chokdee Khap!
(Goodbye/goodluck)
