Once upon a time, I never dreamed I would be visiting Thailand.
I never thought I'd go to China, either.
I guess Asia in general wasn't really in the picture.
Stop #3 on our Spring Festival travels list (after Beijing and Chengdu) was Koh Phi Phi Don, and island off the coast of Thailand, where we (my teammate, Natalie, and I, that is) met up with friends from other teams in our program.
Slightly overpriced, quite hot, and full of crazy Europeans: yes.
BEAUTIFUL, BEACHY, AND FULL OF FRUIT SMOOTHIES:
DEFINITELY YES.
Six days of sun, beach, sitting, eating sweet things, dancing, playing cards, and wearing shorts.
Along with a bit of hiking and some snorkeling.
Glorious.
Fire shows outside of our bungalows every night.
Island!
Our bungalow.
My favorite.
We made it to the top of the island!
Because I could.
Beach.
Jeannie really wanted to get into that coconut.
Beach.
Volleyball with some Thai guys.
Of course, to conserve money, we stayed at a place that gave us a giant towel as a blanket.
Coconut juice actually tastes kind of like corn chips.
And the other thing is a Thai pancake called "Roti".
Sometimes your unexpected dreams really DO come true.
LOVE THIS!!! so glad you got this escape!
