August 5, Day 8


I spent the day doing girly things with Kim and Leah. Weatherwise, it was the nicest day by far since I had been in Thailand, so we did a little sunbathing in the foot and a half deep water and did a little more chatting. After this the ladies took me shopping, where we had some more fun bartering, and I bought some more crappy sunglasses as the ones I had bought before had already broken. After that I am ashamed to say that we actually went to Starbucks. Apparently, Kim was in the mood for real drip coffee which was hard to come by, so I figured ok I can manage that. But then she bought some sort of mango iced smoothee of some sort, which I think kind of defeated the purpose. Oh well, I guess if you’re gonna be a tourist, you might as well go all out.

By the time the feminine activities were all over, it was around 5 o’clock and my flight was at 7:30, so we mozied on back to our resort (we happened to also be staying at the same one), where I grabbed a quick burger, we said our goodbyes and I grabbed a taxi to the airport. I took off at 7:30pm and arrived at my doorstep at 10:30am the next morning. And that brings you up to date, and no there’s no epilogue, not even a concluding paragraph. I hated those things anyways, might as well just copy and paste the introduction paragraph… friggin’ English class.

As always, comments are appreciated!

I just read this in one sitting. It reminded me a lot of my own trip to Thailand, except you did a whole lot more stuff. I mostly stayed on that first beach for a week, which was still awesome, and actually exactly what I needed.

Still, I want a picture with a tiger...
