Ko Sumui

Well we finally arrived... The drive here was better than the drive to Phuket from Ko Lante. I went out one final night last night in Phuket and saw some live local bands. Some of the people do covers almost like the original. Everything is a knock off in Thailand, even most of the woman. I must say that Ko Sumui and Phuket are so for the sex turists. It is so in your face here. Also whoever said that the prices on the islands were cheaper were lying. Its so damn expensive on the islands compared to Bangkok. We thinking that after a few days we are going to go to Chiang Mui from here. We will see though. Looks like the night life here will be good. Watched night at the museam on the circuits here, good movie, and the cinemas are awsome. Tickets are around the same price though. So I would equate Ko Sumui to Patong... very sex driven lifestyles for the Thais. Btw I cannot add certain punctuation to this blog because the freaking keyboard layout is set to something wierd. Will fix that when I get back. So as promised here are some more photos, even though they are a day late.

Here on the right you can see the dish that made my sister cry. Its prawns in a curry sauce. Now I have had some of the currys here and my sister has tasted them. She says they have nothing on this dish on the right. So if you ever come to Thailand and see this dish on a menu, BEWARE! My sister says that I must tell everyone that the red things in the meal are not tomatoes as she originally thought. Take a guess at what the where... hehe.

On the left here you can see some of the accomodation that is available at Kata beach in Phuket. This was a little steep, but still managable. We did not stay here though for we had decent accomadation already for a much cheaper price. That aside, you should really see the place we are staying at now. It is classified as a backpackers and has everything a 3 star hotel could ask for. It is really cheap in comparison to the other places here on the island. Oh and I have checked. We can stay at amazing places in Chiang Mui for dirt cheap. Cannot wait...

On the right is an example of not being tanned enough. Even with the badly lit photo you can see that she is tanned. But no, its not enough. So you should see her now... Anyways you can see that I have been gradually gaining one as well. The photo was taking at one of the bars we visited in Phuket town. It had a pool table and man let me tell you the balls and the pockets were huge in comparison to South Africas tables. This reminds me that the pool tables we played on in Ko Lante were much more to my liking and similar to SA. Anyways this is costing me a bit. Not very cheap on the islands as previously mentioned. So... to the moon and back...
