We are going out on a high note.🎶🎶
We have had pretty good luck with hotels so far on this trip. Aside from the insect drama at the first place, every place has been very pleasing! BUT all that being said….this place we at at now in Khao Lak takes the cake for awesome! We slept very well, the beds are not soft by any stretch of the imagination, but they aren’t any harder than anywhere else. The room was quiet and the air com was perfect. Then we got up and the breakfast was fantastic. The first really good buffet breakfast we have had this summer. Most places have had a set breakfast of egg, toast and fruit. Here they have real bacon, French toast, all kinds of fruit, cereal, croissants, eggs made to order, yoghurt and granola, chicken nuggets??, some Asian food too, green curry and rice. Anyway, it’s great! We had our fill then hit the pool. Great weather day. I (we) may in fact have gotten a little too much sun as I was out until 2:30 😳😳 before I realized it.
Loving the pool access room. I think I have secured an additional 5 nights and hopefully will not have to change rooms. I guess we will see when the time comes.
The view from the room….
And our balcony…..
Our traveling companions are delighted!
After we had our sun and pool time we thought we should go for a walk and explore the beach. We are close by an area we walked through when we were here with the kids in 2009. We stopped at a place where we stopped for a drink back then (and had an ice cream 😉) maybe they will recognize it?
There are many places here that have markers that show how high the water got back when the tsunami hit. This road has several. It’s a reality check….
The clouds were rolling in by this point, it hadn’t rained, but not sure what will occur this evening….the beach was lovely though.
Troy has gone across the street to get a massage and I think after I’m done blogging, I’ll find a place to get the laundry done. That’s the extent of my work today…..I guess we will have to find somewhere to eat supper too, but I’ve heard the restaurant here is quite good….so we may not have to wander far 😊😊
