Sweet Dreams

Sunday evening: Trang Thailand - very cute small town - great night market!!!
Monday morning: Kho Lanta (Big giant Island of scariness)
Today (Tuesday): Emergency escape to the wonderful city of Krabi

So.  Ko Lanta.

Thailand is proving very different from Malaysia.

Here's the story:

We find ourselves an affordable hut on the beach and spent a wonderful afternoon swimming, wandering the beach and watching the sunset.  

  • 10pm:       try to fall asleep
  • 10:30pm: turn on the fan
  • 10:45pm: adjust the fan
  • 11:00pm: move fan into mosquito net
  • 1am:        give up trying to sleep
  • 1:30am:   sit outside waiting for the thump thump thump of Bob Marley to end
  • 1:45am:   lay in bed listening to the squishy sound of gigantic snails moving underneath our hut
  • 2am:        rat sighting in the rafters of hut
  • 2:15am:   AHHH!!!!!!!!!!
  • 3am:        fall asleep
  • 6am:       wake up to someone outside hut raking
  • 10am:     departure forever from Ko Lanta...$%^&*%$!

Today we checked into a wonderful hotel in the small town of Krabi.
The hotel's name?  Good dream.  No kidding.
