Koh Phangan

Tonight its party time, the huge storm yesterday wasn't so bad, we got stuck at the pier for a few hours waiting for a boat and the ride over was wet and cold and VERY rocky but so much fun. The boat was rocking so much that I'm amazed everyone stayed on board and noone blew chunks, I had the greatest time Yarring at the pirates as I walked the plank. I'll stop and give you a minute to insert your own Yarrrrr now. Okay now we are all feeling better I'll continue, so we jumped into the back of a converted pick up, which is the main way to get around here and headed over the worst roads I've ever been on to the new place. The roads were very bumpy and were very steep, another fun ride! When we got to the new place we were greated by the owner and they took us to our new hut in the Jungle. This place is nicer then the last but the room is really small, basically a double bed with just enough room to walk around it. The guy was really nice and said I could come down and watch their tv anytime I wanted and they have a whole bunch of movies on VCD so i'm sure I'll be watching some soon. I spent the after noon sitting on the porch of my hut reading and listening to the rain and loudest thounder I've ever heard in my life. We went down to the restaurant for dinner and I tried to order Shark steak but they didn't have any and the manager said he'd go down to the market for me today and see if he can get some. While we were eating dinner the manager was sitting there drinking whiskey and coke and he sent us over two glasses, hes such a nice guy, he also is going to give us the bigger room if the people don't show up for it today. I spent the rest of the night reading and writing on my porch, very nice and relaxing. This morning I woke up and went for a walk in the jungle behind my hut and saw some cool plants and then we headed into Thong ala to book our tickets to Krabi for the 30th. And thats where i'm at now, so i'm going to check my email now and see how many i can respond to before I run out of time.

Hi Brandon, did you see the wizard? I have my own blog set up...thx to a little misunderstanding between my computer and your blog! I think I called it 'auntiesherriblog'. I did try to send you a note on the first day, but had to 'sign up' as a blog user...and ended up creating my own blog! I know, everyone is laughing at me...but they don't have a blog...and I do!! I just had a chance to read your letters - sounds like you are having a great adventure, except for your breakfasts! Try cereal and milk! All is OK here. Wishing you a great time, Auntie Sherri.blog and gang bloggers.
