This was the first stop on my day trip around the island with my new friend Mark. A bookstore in the middle of the jungle, with English and Swedish books for sale!
This shrine near the highest point you can drive to on the island.
Such amazing stone work!
Turtle!
We just about ran right into this monster, it was about the size of my hand!
Made it to the waterfall! It was about a mile hike on a rocky trail.
Hi Mark!
Big fat millipede, not to be confused with centipedes, which are the ones that bite people.
The close up. Isn't it cute?!
Pad See Ew, the lesser known cousin of Pad Thai.
The famous Grandmother and Grandfather rocks, named for their, uh, interesting shapes.
Heading to Koh Tao!
This is the beach in front of the resort where I learned to scuba dive.
Back on Koh Samui, in my ridiculous suite for my friend Jake's wedding.
Look at that glorious bathtub!
No big deal, just my own private swimming pool overlooking the ocean.
This is the view looking down from the reception area at the Conrad.
