Not a great deal has happened since my last post as we've had a couple of lazy days around the resort.
On Sunday evening we had a bit of a hedonistic night in a new bar we've found called 'The Kasbar' with some locals. We were starving hungry when we got back to the apartment and I didn't get much sleep as Kev couldn't stop talking about food. I bet him that I could eat 20 Kit Kats so he went for a walk at about 3am to see if the mini market was open - the tactic worked for me as I got my head down for a bit while he was away ;0)
Kev then stayed up all night and headed down to get some breakfast when the first bar opened. I follwed a bit later and then we hired a couple of Kayak's and had a mess around for a few hours. We paddled over to a nice bit of secluded beach on a different part of the island when there were only a couple of people. The weather was ok to begin with then it started to pour down and we stood on the beach getting hit by the weather!
After Kayaking we had a siesta and headed down to The Kasbar again. The locals guys who work there are pretty cool and we sat around pretty much all afternoon in hammocks watching them make bongs - 'pre ordered batch' I think the term was. It was amazing to watch as they had one made within about 15 mins and then they would test them for a bit before starting on the next one.
They made us some food after a while, a really hot chicken and pineapple curry which was awesome. It was pretty cold after that so we headed back for a bit before we went back to the same bar to meet Pooch, Sophie and Cassie who we got talking to a few days ago. We also met another girl and her Dad, Sophie and Jim, who are from Newcastle. Sophie is coming to the end of a 7 month travelling stint and her Dad met up with her for the last week - quite funny actually as her Dad was partial to a bit of the old Thai special.
Today the weather is very poor, windy and rainy since we got up so it's not looking good for the tan. We've decided to stay on Railey Beach for another 2 nights before we're making a move for either Ko Samui or Ko Pha-Ngan as there's a full moon party on 14th Sep. Check out the resort we're staying at now - Tonsai Bay Resort, Railey Beach.
