Island Time – I Forgot What That Meant… I always forget about Island Time…nothing is ever on time. I was all set to be at the ferry port for my 4:30 ferry for my last island in Thailand…Ko Tao. So I left my hotel at 3:00 to allow enough time to get there, buy a […]

We made it to Ko Phangnan!
Finally made it to our wonderful beach for happy hour. Good news…Vanessa and I finally made it to our beach resort in Ko Phangnan.
