... watched the infamous Simon Cabaret show...
Drove past various beaches & then to Promethepe Cape intending to catch the sunset but it was raining :(
Drank Pina Colada from a coconut @ this quaint eating place situated ard Kata...
& we went elephant trekking & got bitten by lotsa mosquitoes!!! :P
The elephant was really smart; could totally understand the guide's instruction whether to turn left, turn rite or to lower its head for the guide to come off!!! Dar & I were both amused & impressed!!!
It was also q an adventurous trip as we rented a jeep & then a scooter to get around. Check out the jeep... only 1.3L... almost couldn't make it up the hills as we drove from place to place.
Went around the markets q a bit & it was amazing @ how high the stall owners would quote u n wat we end up paying!!! I bought this top that the gal wanted to sell me @ 1200 bht but in the end I only paid 350 bht for it!!! But some of the stall owners who were originally from N were q pissed that we were always cutting the price and they made comments about us in their language once our backs were turned but we were not far enough for them not to be heard. As Dar commented, they can't really blame us for giving them such a low price coz they did ask us how much we were willing to pay & they were the ones who quoted such a high price intially mah.
But all in all, it was q a fun & relaxed trip... first together as a couple... & we got a rather big room as we told them we were on honeymoon hee hee! Got bathtub & shower place plus a small balcony inside the room :) *pleased*
