After spending a month living with Utit and his family on Koh Mook it finally came time to leave. We had an amazing time there, exploring the island and learning far more about the Thai (and specifically Buddhist) culture, values and beleifs than 4 weeks of 'town hopping' would ever have taught us. We're now in Surat Thani and waiting for Tom to arrive, tomorrow we go to Khao Sok national park to do some trekking and hopefully see a tiger or two.
Unfortunately, due to most of Thailand's antiquated internet services, it doesn't seem likely i'll be able to upload any photo's for a little while.
Before coming here we spent a day in Krabi and stayed with Utit's mother and father-in-law. We visited a temple on top of a mountain for which we had to climb 1,237, at times incredibly steep, steps. By the time we got to the top the giant seated Buddha more than made up for the ardous journey.
I think we're going to head out into the streets now and grab a bite to eat from some street vendors, the choice is overwhelming and everything is delicious..or 'a-roy'.
