Summing it all up.
 

Sep 14, Koh Phangan & Full Moon Party

After touring the island of Samui, we took a local boat over to Koh Phangan for the Full Moon Party. It was a let down.

To the left, you have the island. We landed at the South end of the island in the evening.

To the right, you have the view from the bungalow where we stayed. It was the Bangrak Samui Beach Resort at +66 7748 4595.

The beach we swam at in the mornings we stayed here. A place Martin would like to revisit.

Early morning breakfast at the sea. Martin and Tukta.

Visiting the Big Buddha (BB). All cities of any size has a Big Buddha.

Martin and Tukta at the stairs of The Big Fella.

Mr BB in all his glory.

The harbor we departed from in the evening for Phangan. Long and thin due to very shallow water way out.

The view from the BB's place.

The airport in Samui is smack bang in the middle of the main city.

Tukta's humble dwellings. A mattress on the floor. Arild is a good catch.

Martin's new bed for the night. A very fancy bungalow next to the sea. Lovely. Arild and Tukta really loved the main bed, three times the size.

Having a beer at our new porch. Beautiful.

The Big Buddha in the sky as seen from our porch.

Some ornaments next door.

Having a chicken claw for lunch. Not much food.

Fish market was fascinating.

All kind of funny stuff.

Martin and the crabs. Very popular food in Thailand among the natives.

Gutted chickens. Not very appetizing.

Squids in all shapes and sizes. Good for you.

Green peas, but very bitter.

Tukta and our rental for two days.

Sala Spa and resort.

Off to the island of Phangan.

 

Martin just fixed Arild up with a beer.

Rocky island on our way out.

Happy threesome as always.

The military is present, but doesn't lift a finger of watching corrupt criminals doing their business.

Booze is present everywhere. And cheap on the streets.

Crowded streets of Phangan where the Western ladies are flunking her sexy wares on the street. Look just vulgar compared to the Thai ladies.

The sunset of Phangan waiting for a lift back to Samui. Glad we didn't stay over.

Speed boat run by the local mob. Tried to charge us 6000 Baths (€ 180,-), In the end it was only € 15,-.  

The next day, Monday, it was time for visiting Bangkok. Originally by with boat and train but dropped and booked tickets instead.
