| Taking the ferry from Koh Samui to Koh Phangan |
The hor d'oeuvres were flowing, the French wine importer was pouring, the French artisanal ice cream maker was scooping, what a perfect way to spend our last evening in Thailand on beautiful Koh Phangan.
 |
| We thought this was blowing towards Koh Tao, but..... |
No matter that a monsoon suddenly struck in the middle of the beach bar opening party at the Blue Ocean Gardens. We, and every French expat on Koh Phangan and Koh Samui, managed to carry on.
Oblivious to the rain, Oscar held court with a bunch of kids from Portugal and Japan.

| They speak a universal language |
It was a perfect ending to our vacation from our sabbatical.
The last two months in Asia really took a lot out of us.

| Me and Neil on our "jet scooter" |
In five days on laid back Koh Phangan, we slept in, ate tiramisu and ricotta cheesecake (our hotel is Italian-owned), swam, snorkeled, read, played Munchkin, Scrabble, Cribbage and Hearts, tooled around on a moped, walked on endless sandbars at low tide, practiced yoga and violin, and did a water obstacle course called Wipeout.
 |
| Hmmm, tantra of the heart or tantra of liberation? |
 |
| We despise selfies but sometimes are left with no choice. |
We leave tomorrow for a quick overnight in Kuala Lumpur, then 8 days in Tokyo and Kyoto! So excited to eat sushi, visit Studio Ghibli, check out some temples, and sleep in a capsule hotel. Our last stop before LAX!!
