Laziness
Sunday, August 31st, 2008I’ve been spending my time on Koh Tao for the past few days being lazy. The kind of lazy where you lay on the beach, read your book and sip fruit smoothies. Last night at a pancake cart, I met a group of Swedes. I impressed them enough with my poor Swedish skills to be treated to dinner, followed afterwards by a fruitless search to find a non-existent live music scene. Tomorrow, I will go on a dive to Chumpon Pinnacle, where I hope to spot some sharks. Not the dangerous kind! Fun dives here are incredibly cheap- $21 includes all the gear, the boat, and snacks.
I don’t know when or where I’m going next. Possibly Ko Samui. On my round-the-world plane ticket, I was originally supposed to leave out of Bangkok 2 days ago to go to Singapore. I’m glad I changed it to the 14th, because there are protests going on in Bangkok right now against the government, and apparently a lot of flights were cancelled. I’m sure it will be less chaotic in 2 weeks time.
