In memory of (not a really serious thing)

Todays post is dedicated to the memory of the little paper roll guy. We would take turns in the household hiding him in different places where people would find him and say “whats he doing there”. I ‘smartly’ took him on holiday (packed secretly in the other half’s luggage), only to have the cleaners ‘steal’ […]

So our time had come to an end. The Holiday was over. As mentioned yesterday, we got up before the crack of dawn and began our journey home. After the initial travels, we found ourselves on a plane to Thailand. I followed with interest as the plane made a 360 turn in the middle of […]

Beginning of the Return Home

Our last day in Thailand was a long one. I forget exactly, but wakeup was something like 4.30 am to begin our escort from Ko Lanta to Phuket (and then from there to Bangkok to Australia to New Zealand). Our driver was a great host and put on some mostly English western music. The one […]

Welcome Ko Lanta

After a ~2 hour boat trip we landed in the sunny (really really hot) Ko Lanta. Spending the rest of the day at the hotel area, it was like its own little village (much larger than our other temporary homes). An interesting observation (perhaps) also that it was the most English-western of all stops in […]
