It was a looong trip by plane, bus, train, jeep and boat, but it was worth it. We arrived on Koh Tao in the Gulf of Thailand. The Thais really have their tourism infrastructure sussed out, so apart from the duration of the journey it was actually quite easy to get to our destination. I can't help but think that Venezuelans could learn a thing or two from Thais interms of tourism organisation.
Anyway the resort where we stayed was quiet and away from the main village. The little bay is called Laem Thian and the water was crystal clear and very warm. Just really, really nice. Monica spent most of the time sunbathing while I spent my time swimming, snorkeling and jumping off rocks into the water. Brilliant fun!
Today we're off to Koh Phangan, another island nearby to change scenery, but spend our time doing much of the same...

We'll write again from there... Hope everyone is well.

Che viaggio per arrivare fin qui! Piu' o meno 30 ore di viaggio, fra aerei, treni, autobus, traghetti prima di arrivare a destinazione, ovvero a Ko Tao, un'isola nel golfo della Tailandia. Ne e' valsa proprio la pena! Una volta arrivati abbiamo ancora dovuto prendere un pick-up che ci portasse al nostro hotel, dall'altra parte dell'isola. La strada (se si puo' chiamare cosi', perche' assomiglia piu' a un sentiero di montagna che a una strada) finisce all'hotel e posto piu' sperduto non esiste. Veramente un bel posto per rilassarsi e adattarsi alla bellezza di questo paese. Noi ci siamo rimasti 3 giorni, passando il tempo a sguazzare o a dormire. Un sogno!! Oggi ci dirigiamo verso un altra isola, Ko Phangan da dove invieremo altre foto. Per il momento godetevi queste!
