Back to Bangkok

My hotel is one 1 km from the airport but it is nice and very reasonable.
A very tempting pool directly outside me door.

Last day in Rayong

Strange how fast time has gone past. Today is my last day here in Rayong. Tomorrow I will be travelling back to Bangkok where I have a hotel room near the airport. Monday I will fly back to Zurich and onwards to London. There are no organised taxi service here, basically anyone with a car can call themselves a taxi driver and offer to drive. They usually don't speak a word of English so it snot so easy but I met a German who was interested in driving me and I hope he will show up tomorrow morning.

A Splash of Colour

To mark the end of another year of my life, and what a great life ! I have and so much to be thankful for. ...I have a the best most loving family anyone could wish for and many loyal friends. I have had the opportunity to travel and explore and I enjoyed every minute of it.

More impressions for Ban Phe

I found this lovely quiet place the other day.

Lots of fresh fish on offer.

Dried fish is also popular 

Another Divine Sunset

After the ugliness of Pattaya, I had to spend some more time on the beach. The colours always reminds me of Turner ad I think I have to go to Tate Britain when I get home to enjoy some of his seascape.

Longan

I had seen this fruit in the shop for a while and it was time to try it out. I bought a bunch cost 46 Thai Bath, which is 89 pence or 11.27 NKR. It taster very nice and sweet, very similar to Lychee.

Mangoes and coconuts growing everywhere

I walk past these trees every day and I wonder when they will be ripe. By the way the young coconuts are particularly delicious, the meet is soft and sweet and the coconut water is very refreshing.
