KOH LARN 25-26 SEPTEMBER 2009
It's a short trip with my 2 close friends from school. We know each other since we were in primary 3.
Our destination is somewhere with coral and divable. We know, Koh Larn is the nearest place ..
I've just been there last April .. but no other choice. We took bus from Victory Monument, takes around 2 hours..
then walked in to a hotel at South Pattaya, New Day-Night Hotel, very cheap but not so good in services.
We went to Bali Hai Pier and hire a speed boat to the island. It took just 15 minutes. We had no lunch yet
but decided to start snorkelling right then.
The 'Thong Lang' beach is good, very quiet and still fertile. Like the sea is ours .. cause it's not a public beach
and it's Friday. My friend brought 2 snorkel masks but there're three of us. So I bought a new one..
we rent the fins .. which was my biggest problem.. there's no size that fit me. I ended up with cramp.
My friends have to drag me around. Fortunately, I already took many photos underwater for them.
Pirada came back Bangkok on that night, she had Hua-Hin trip on early morning next day.
I and Jaan went for a dinner on Oriental Star. It's a restaurant on the ship. We have to ride safari car
and speed boat to get there. Those services were free. The restaurant was very nice.
We back to Pattaya coast and take a walk at Walking Street, spent such a short time.. then went back
to the hotel.. really tired. Next morning I asked Jaan to teach me swim in the pool.
I'm still motivated by diving... wanna swim and take scuba course within this year !!
Jaan wrote on her blog about this same trip, in Thai. see http://jaan.exteen.com/20090929/entry
I back to Bangkok and went to Shar's home. She has to fly on that night.. to England.. So I came to say good bye
before went back to my home and took a long sleep around 28 hours.. exhausted from sun burn ><
