Girls on the day# 2...Getting more colour...


Me..at the restaurant..taken by Jo...It's me...yes...and No...it's not Rudolph!!!

Jo...at the restaurant, taken by herself...

Jo...on the beach!!! Trying to get some more tan...

Jane...on the beach!! You can see the beach and Jo from my sunglasses.. ;-)

Day# 2 : On Koh Phangan...


First picture of the day...it's the view from my bed through the window... took it before I got up. (Of course, I have my camera with me even when I am sleeping!!)

Our hut...670 baht/night...with one bed for two...a ceiling fan...2 towels...and a mosquito net provided.

I thought it would be a cloudy day when I saw the sky..but I was wrong... The sky was so clear and so beautiful...too!!!

Sun rised..already when we got up...but not many people woke up...

I don't know who did this...but I found this poor little fish in the early morning...and I think it just got killed!!! (but I didn't see any suspect around though)

Jo's feet...of course it was taken by herself!!!

Not mine...just saw it...and took the picture. I didn't do anything much there...only swimming...eating...sleeping...and taking photos...

I thought he was dead...but he was just sleeping...I think he was having a very good time on the beach like us!!!

A bit too dark...because there was not much light at that moment...but I can't do anything...

I think the sky colour was nice...and with the shadow from the coconut trees...it would be a nice picture... Do you agree?

Got a chance to take this pic before he sailed his boat away...

I have so many pictures during sunset...most of them look similar...but I have many...so you have to see many!!!

Almost sunset...but at this beach, we can't see the sunset...as it's on the sunrise side!!!

I was waiting for my dinner....and I think I should take some pictures. This is one of them.

Girls on the day# 1


2 Happy girls on the beach!!!

Jo...on the ferry to Koh Phangan.

I'm too lazy...

As I didn't have enough sleep from the long journey back to Bangkok..and I went straight to work...so I'm too lazy to put more photos today...
Please be patient with me...I promise I will post more tomorrow! I promise..

Day # 1: On 25th August...


The first view I got when I was on the ferry to the island...in the morning...it's not very far from the mainland's pier...

Finally arrived to Koh Phangan!!! After a very long journey...by bus and ferry boat...13.5 hours...from Bangkok!!!

Our beach!! It's called "Tong nai pan noi" beach that means Mr. Pan's stomach, small beach. (There is another beach next to this one called "Tong nai pan yai"...yai means big, noi means small.)

What we and others at this beach did all day is...to indulge oneself with the sun, sand and the sea... Oh!!! and the book plus pretty girls in bikini for me...

The sky was full with stars...so we just sank ourselves on the beach after our first dinner here... It was a real starry night!!

300 photos...

From this 4 days 3 nights trip to Koh Phangan, I took 300 photos in total!! Exactly that number, no more no less...300 pictures... We will see how many that will be posted.

Jane is back!

Sleepy..tired...3 hours on boat and 10 hours on bus...arriving this morning....going straight to office and work!! oh....
I will show the pics later when I get home this evening....ahh....Just let you know..I'm still alive...happily alive too.. :-)

I had a weird dream...

Last night..I dreamed of snow...snow flakes falling on my face... I remember that I felt so happy seeing that...I looked up on the sky and it's at dusk...the sky was dark blue...but very clear. In my dream, I felt that it's cold..icy when the snowflake touched my cheek...
I don't remember the other things in my dream...I only remember this...and I felt really good...very happy..in my dream...
