Day 29 Friday 21st May






Woke up today to find my tattoo, along with myself stuck to the bed and with the rain pounding down outside today wasn't looking like a good one, We had decided the previous night to take things easy on Friday and go for a run on the bike but I had a funny feeling that was about to change as i'd been caught in the rain while on the bike once before and that was not going to happen again. We decided to sit on the balcony and watch everyone else getting wet while having a nice cuppa coffee. It wasn't to long before the rain stopped and we headed off down to the town center for some last minute shopping. Mcdonalds for breakfast!! I't wasn't the best choice but It would keep us alive until we ate something that tasted like food. We headed up to Tri Trang beach resort to see Da and the girls for a manicue and pedicure. It was brilliant, we both came out with shiny new hands and feet and a free head massage from Da. All nice and new for going home. The sun finally came out so went to the hotel pool for our last bit of sunshine before getting ready for dinner. Went to No. 6 on the beach. We made a bit of a mistake and sat down at the wrong restaurant, we didn't realise this until after the menu's had been put down in front of us. As Angie really wanted to go to No. 6 we made our apologies and toodled of across the sand into the next restaurant. Was a bit embarrasing but it's Thailand and they wouldn't see us again anyway. Had a lovely meal right on the beach and then lit a lucky balloon and set it off from the beach and watched it fly into the distance until we couldn't see the flame anymore, how romantic. Then headed off to the Bangla Boxing Stadium to watch some Thai boxing (Muay Thai). It was pretty good to see, started with some small kids about 7 or 8 years old kicking the living sh*te out of each other until the big boys came on. Watched a few matches and then decided to head off down Bangla Road for our last night. Met Joan and Mike at the Kangaroo Bar and after a few beers, couple of bottles of champagne later headed off home. Had to help an Oz lassie find her hotel as she had loast all her mates and was a bit pickled. Found out the name of her hotel, took her in a tuk tuk and dropped her off safely home. Good deed for the day done. Got ourselves home for our last head down before packing.
