We took a much less insane boatride yesterday from Ko Lipeh to Ko Lanta. This is the busiest island that we've been to so far and it's much bigger and more well developed. For example, it boasts an ATM! Actually there're 20,000 locals on the island so really it is quite big. After checking in to our place, the cheapest place we've stayed yet and besides the ants everywhere we're not sure why it's so cheap. Oh right, there's the sounds of a dying jackal outside our room at night. They didn't bother us much though.
We walked along the beach past the resorts to the more local food stalls. They're cheaper and have better food. We enjoyed yet another set of Thai pancakes, we get very strange looks when we order four but they're just not that big. Our plan was to swim after breakfast this morning but the walk back was enough to soak us in rain and the waves are pretty rough for a swim. I was planning to put up more pictures today but the computer tried to eloctrocute myself and the camera, so it will have to wait unfortunately. We're staying here too more nights and then are off to Ko Pi Pi, where the movie the beach was shot. It's supposed to be pretty touristy so we'll see what happens. Clearly not much to report.
I hope all's well. Happy birthday to Mark and Jeany.

Just figured out I can comment! Not really that hard to figure out, but I think I was so wrapped up in the stories that I wasn't thinking. Good to hear you are having a relaxing yet challenging go (given the wildlife and boating adventures). I was showing the kids the photos in an effort to slowly transition them to saying yes to this type of travel. I figure if I convince them, Klaus will follow along. Enjoy you two...
Loving living vicariously through you two! Bring me back some pancakes!
Love Annie
