Koh Phangan

we got to Koh Phangan yesterday and its beautiful!  The past few days we've done a lot of moving around.  The first hotel we were staying in Koh Tao was in a great location, but the room smelled pretty bad.  There were tiles missing in the bathroom so every time we would shower the water would just go under the tiles and the room smelled really moldy and gross.  It was so hot there that we had to leave the windows open and there were no screens so i got a ton of mosquito bites, one being on my eye so i had a swollen eye for 2 days.  So we decided we needed to get out of that hotel so we switched to the other part of the island, Tanote Bay which was really nice.  there was nothing around (stores, markets, etc), but the beach was big and it was nice and quiet.  The picture above is from our beach in Tanote bay. 

For the next few days we are planning on exploring Koh Phangan.  We have a kayak we can use at our hotel so i think we are just going to kayak around the island.  We have about a week here so hopefully we can find plenty to do!

After this, we are headed to the western side of Thailand to Koh Phi Phi.  We will then head down to Malaysia because Stacey and i really wanted to be there for Chinese New Year!

Thats about it for now.  sorry for the lack of pictures, i haven't found anywhere to get a cord for my camera so i can't upload pictures.
