Koh Ngai and Koh Phangan, Thailand

I cannot believe Christmas has come and gone. Whilst you have been sitting around your Christmas trees opening your presents, we have been lying on sun beds and getting massages on the beach and getting engaged! Christmas eve at 12 midnight, Terry got down on his knee and proposed to me. He gave me a gorgeous wooden ring, carved by hand with a love heart on the top by a local Thai guy. We spent Christmas day celebrating and swimming. We’ve been taking trips on the long tail boats around the island and taking long walks down the white sands. The cottage we are staying in is beautiful. All made out of bamboo and local woods, beautiful bed and gorgeous surroundings, also with our very own hammock and sarongs! We left Koh Ngai with anticipation and excitement as we travelled to Krabi airport to meet Amanda and Lewis.

Shattered and disorientated, Amanda and Lewis came through arrivals with thie backpacks and smiles attached. I was so happy to see them. We spent a day on a bus over to Surat Thani and then another night on a boat to Koh Phangan island. The guys were exhausted and we were cramed in like chickens, each with our own mat and mosquito ridden window that wouldn’t shut. It left port at 11pm and arrived at 5am this moring. We took a tuk tuk to our resort and arrived at ‘Cookie Salad’. We stayed in really big rooms overlooking the beach and the ocean from our balcony hammocks. It was paradise, palm trees swaying in the slight breeze and the sun beaming on our faces saying welcome to paradise, all the travelling became worth every second. Today we have been lazing around together, catching up and sunbathing. Theres an infinity pool here so the boys have been somersaulting in the water and a few cocktails have been drunk.

We have the famous full moon new year party coming up, its suppose to be out of this world, 40,000 people on one beach, hmm...wish us luck!!
