Still enjoying Koh Tao

On a Thursday morning we went to eat breakfast together with Steve to a buffet which was included in the price of our room. Emilie didn't want to eat so it was just the two of us. After eating we had this big plan to go and try to chance our room to a smaller two bedroom one since Emilie didn't have so much money and she was willing to sleep on the floor with her sleeping back. Our plan worked out well and they got us a smaller room and to our surprise when we went in, there happened to be two beds of which one was a double! So we actually ended up paying less for a almost same size room!  We were lucky that they even had free rooms since after the full moon party the island is packed and there are usually no free beds anywhere..



In the morning or early afternoon we hang by the pool enjoying the sunny day. On the boat over Emilie had met this older Dutch guy traveling alone so Emilie left for the island's  view point with him, I didn't wanna join them since I had already been there. Me and Steve were left alone and we went to walk around and do some shopping. On the way Steve finally forced me to go to the pharmacy  to get something for my throat which was soooooo painful and had been already for days.. I got these pills and pain killers and they cost me a lot (in BAHTs..)! We also went to meet Pooh since she wanted to give me some t-shirt to give it to her friend back in Finland.


The day went past really fast just wandering around and figuring our plans for the night. When Emilie was back we went to watch the sunset with her while Steve was somewhere with his friends. Me and Emilie booked a snorkling / diving trip for the next day. 








After the sunset we walked back to our room and there was a short power cut and the whole island went dark right after the sunset. See below.


Shower and pad thai time was next. Poor backpackers that we were we spotted some free drink coupons and of course went to have those at this one bar. Then we went to our hotel's outdoor restaurant / bar and ALL of Steve's friends happened to be there too.. I was a bit nervous since they had noticed him being with me all the time and I was nervous what they might think of me. Me, Emilie, the Dutch man Jeroen and Steven hang out together while Jeroen insisted buying us beers all the time! I really really did enjoy myself that night! We also went to the next door bar CanCun for couple of more beers after most of Steve's friends had left. 

I have written to my notes of this day: The best night ever!
