Anyone for Thai food?
Journal

You can't spend this long in Thailand, eating mainly thai food and not wonder what goes in it. As we are staying in Ko Lanta for a while we had loads of time to find out. Luckily Lanta Thai Cooking School is very close to our bungalow so we booked an afternoon course. Sharon enjoys cooking but my skills only extend to baked beans and spag bol so I wasn't too keen on making a fool of myself. To my relief we were the only ones on the course which surprised me as it was always busy when we walked passed. Once we selected our 5 dishes to cook we put on our aprons and moved to our stations. We were given a very very sharp knife and we learn't about and chopped various ingredients. At this point I could make the story dramatic by saying |

A great bar on Khlong Khong beach, the Majestic bar is typical of the area, very rustic, great chilled tunes and friendly staff, even if he was addicted to Fifa on the playstation :-)

Staying in Khlong Khong on Ko Lanta was proving too much for Sharon, she had to have a lie down.

Klong Khong Beach

After a lovely week at Lanta Emerald we thought we'd better reduce our accommodation costs. We had a look at a couple of other bays but couldn't really find anything that compared to Klong Khong. The touristy areas cost more and the quieter areas that were cheap were just too quiet. We struck gold though when after some hard bargaining we moved to another place on the same beach. Sea Sand Sun Resort bungalow has air con, sat t.v., fridge and a lovely pool, all for 600 baht per night. We even got the front bungalow so another sea view :-) Another bonus of the off-peak season is that we haven't shared the pool once!
During the last week we've totally chilled out, worked on our tans, finished our books, played games, had massages, drunk too much but eaten really healthily :-) We |
