Welcome to my Paradise... Ko Samui!



Chaweng Beach... with fresh pineapple

Ko Samui is what I've been waiting for this entire trip: white sand beaches, tourquois water, and palm trees all at Thailand prices!
So far all we've done is beached it up and zoomed around on our bikes. And I think that's all we'll do for the 4 nights we're here. We've been eating well as well- the boys usually getting stupid big seafood platters, myself sticking to amazing thai currys. Mmmmm.

Some volleyball


Our matching bikes

After a day at the beach we decided to go for a little ride on the bikes. We ended up finding the Big Buddah. We also ended up running over a huge drill bit and popping our tire. You would not believe how big this thing was. Luckily there was a bike shop just past the place where we hit the drill bit... or was that a set-up?

Seafood platter... this was part of a 950B meal for 2 people (thats about $30CAD)

One more thing... today at the beach a small child, a one year to be exact, started playing with our volleyball. Shortly after his dad/caretaker came over and started talking to us. It started out normal enough telling us the kids name etc and led to him trying to sell us weed, fair enough, but after we refused that he, in all seriousness, offered to sell us the baby for 1 million baht. No thanks. Picture of child for sale to come.
