Our 3rd day there and our first sunrise. It was quite stunning.
As I said, Ko Samui felt very overrated to me, but I cannot fault the Jasmine resort. I loved the place. Everything was beautifully done and exuded pure class all the way. There were many of these flower arrangements dotting the path from the hotel to the beach, and they were always fresh and always beautiful. I would go back just to stay in that hotel.
After breakfast, we decided to take a walk down the beach. This time north towards Chaweng (we walked south on our first day). Two people reading this blog will find these huts familiar. They looked exactly like the ones we stayed in on our trip to Tioman. Arrr. Pirate Rum.
There was this lovely makeshift bridge spanning over an inlet. Figure the locals got sick of getting their feet wet when trying to cross via the beach.
Random artyfarty shot. I named this "Lonely Planet"
"Floating Along"
"Morning Catch"
"Dog buried in Sand"
"Pembrella?"
For dinner on Night 3, after walking up and down the street and not really seeing anything appetising, we decide to go back to the street food place to get another helping of Mussel omelette. Sadly, she wasn't open. Oh woe. We decided to try the other stuff that we missed on the first night. The kebabs weren't that good. A little tough.
Various deep fried items.
The stall that sold the grilled chicken hearts we ate on the first day. Definitely had a repeat performance this night.
This is what low season looks like at night. I'm guess during peak season, this street would be full of whitepeople. IMO, the whiteman has ruined Asia. The peace and quiet was definitely welcome.
