On our last full day in Thailand, we awoke to brilliant blue skies, a blazing sun, and humidity made just tolerable by the occasional breeze… same, same… pretty boring, huh?

We grabbed breakfast at the resort’s main restaurant and headed straight for the pool; the last chance to give our Melanocytes a really good work-out. We spent a nice couple of hours in the pool and on the deck.

We then headed back to our room. There was a very comfortable breeze across our deck, especially when we opened all four sliding glass doors. It was the perfect place to work on this blog.

Working on this blog; cigar in mouth, skivvies to cover the “boys”, and tunes in the air.

The rest of the afternoon was spent cataloging our purchases and packing our luggage for tomorrow’s flights.

Once the sun went down, it was time to head into town for our last dinner in Thailand. We were impressed enough with last night’s visit to the Bai Toey that we chose it again. They didn’t disappoint; good food, great service, friendly staff, and lots of electric fans. After dinner, we walked over to the nightly market area and picked up a few last-minute additions to the ever-growing pile of “stuff” we’re hauling home. Then, it was time to head back.

Once in the room, we packed the new stuff into our bulging luggage and kicked back on the deck. We were rewarded with a refreshingly cool (in relative terms) breeze this evening while we sat on the rocking chairs, sipped cool drinks, listened to tunes, gazed out over the lights of the town and of the fishing boats out on the sea… and, oh yeah, let the cares of the world drift away with each exhaled puff of cigar smoke.
