Here comes the second part of our Thailand trip. As I mentioned before, the weather wasn't always with us. Just like the air hostess on our trip back put it : " I have been in Thailand every year for the past 15 years. This time was the worst weather ever!".We did enjoy ourselves totally though. And went to magnificent places. Thailand is such a vibrant place. Click below to see more!We decided to escape the rain in Koh Kho Khao where we were staying and pay a visit to the beautiful Phan-Nga bay. We had an amazing boat trip around it. It's totally magical even in cloudy weather. We also had the chance to go to the Island called "James Bond". The name is due to a duel scene of the movie " the man with a golden gun" between Christopher Lee and Roger Moore. We did some canoeing and more boat ride.We also went to a fishing village that was originally built by Indonesian immigrants. So much life in there. Such an experience for the kids.The cafe they go to before heading fishing:We also visited a school there, they have a football pitch on pilotis!Last part of our trip was for visiting a temple with a giant buddha. I can safely say this was a full on day:Of course, there will be a part 3 to this trip. An amazing experience overall.I hope this gives you a bit of warmth on these cold days!
A little more of Thailand - part 1
We are having a terrific time in Thailand despite the (very) unpredictable weather for the season. I had already posted some picture in my last 52 project post. So here is a little more. There will be a 3rd part coming soon.If you care to check, you can click below.I have a thing for long tail boats and you will see many pictures of it.We went on a trip to an Island called Pha. The tiniest thing you have ever seen. It was entirely devastated by the Tsunami 12 years ago. But they managed to use it touristically anyway. You go snorkelling first and then you have lunch on the island. And we had the Island almost for ourselves:A lot of fishermen around. Kids went fishing with us while we were snorkelling. Different priorities.Always with a book in his hands.He recently read the entire French series called Manoir: And we also went to a busy market in Khao LakWe stayed on an Island called Koh Kho Khao. Ideal, if you ask me. It's quiet. It has beautiful beaches. But still a lot to do around if you wish so.The beach near our hotel was almost for ourselves every day. I'm dreading recommending it as it might spoil the place. I'm therefore hiding the name of our hotel from this blog, haha.We didn't have much sun in fairness. Especially for the season. But when it came, it was quite a party!To be continued...
