Klong Muang Beach, 28.12.2012 Am tired, short post. Great thai breakfast on the road, noodles and rice, both with pork, 70 thb. Today we checked Phuket. Interesting, nothing exciting on the island. We expected more tourist rip-off. But probably that gets visible only at night. And our discovery wasn’t thorough enough. But for once IContinueContinue reading “Race (km 1530, Kho Kho Khao-Phuket-Klong Muang Beach)”

On the road backContinueContinue reading “Action day (km 1020, Khao Sok-Khao Lak)”
Xmas eve on the river
Khao Sok, 24.12.2012 Dear friends, our Xmas dinner is just over.

We’re sitting in front of our ananas desertContinueContinue reading “Xmas eve on the river”
Jungle hut (km 910, Suk Samran-Khao Sok National Park)
Khao Sak, 24.12.2012 The day started with a broken back in our Thai motel. Opening the door a little lake with ducks welcomed us. Other inhabitants came to visit, especially a peacock and some turkeys. Hot shower, instant coffee and off we went to check out last night’s beach during daylight. Unfortunately there was noContinueContinue reading “Jungle hut (km 910, Suk Samran-Khao Sok National Park)”
