We're currently on Koh Chang Island in Thailand! The beach is gorgeous!! The mountains, palm trees, blue skies, etc. are definitely the stuff of posters and paradise resort ads.
The day we got here we picked up another traveller who was alone. So we turned into 4 and found ourselves a bungalow. Last night we had 3 different mosquito nets up in the tiny hut! Mike went exploring and found a half built bungalow, so we all went to go find it to see if we could camp in it comfortably enough. On our way to find it we discovered a deserted resort!! So... we explored a bit, found an empty hut that was to our liking and checked out of the other bungalow. So now we're camping in an abandoned resort! For free!! We took a bunch of palm leaves and put them down, sort of weaved the edges together, and threw a tarp over them for a bed. We're literally 10 feet from the white sand beach when the tide is in. I think it's pretty awesome.
The weather of course is amazing. The only downside of that is that the bananas around here are pretty much useless except as food. (Although, I'm sure Eric could come up with something else).
Our Australian roomie (temporary #4) didn't feel up to the camping, so we're back to three.
Next on the itinerary is Cambodia, so stay tuned!!

Good to hear you're doing well in Koh Chang. Let me know how much you have to pay when you cross over to Cambodia. I "bargained" with the corrupt official down to 1000 baht, but I think it's really supposed to be more like 700 baht. Blessings!
