Another quick update. As Much as Ko Tao's paradisal lifestyle entices me stay ive decided to move on. Tonight @9 im getting a night boat to Surat Thani (a transport hub) where i'll get the 6am bus over to Khao Sok national park to go and do some jungle trekking. A national park pass lasts three days and there are some 9 treks around lakes, waterfalls etc. So i'll probablly stay the duration. The scenery and tree house accommodation here are supposed to be a real treat so im really looking forward to it.
Im currently in quite a bit of pain. Badly shaped flippers from this morning SCUBAING?! has left broken blister burns on 6 of my toes, and sunburn on my shoulders (despite wearing creme and a t-shirt on 2 dives) is making my backpack rather awkward to carry. They say say no pain, no gain, and that certainly seems to be the case on Ko Tao where ive an awsome time. Sawat Dii (Bye)
