Koh Samet

Sawadee ka,

So my latest adventure was to Koh Sahmet Island, Thailand.  Koh means "island" in Thai and I have seen Sahmet spelled Samed also.  The island is located about an hour from Rayong, which is where I currently reside.  We took a "taxi" to Ban Phe and then a ferry boat from Ban Phe to Koh Samet.  The island was beautiful and words can not describe it, so that means.....PICTURES!!!

The people on the island were great and I went to a Bob Marley Reggae Bar, BUT it was not run my Jamaicans my friends, it was run by the locals.  They have a live band, which was not there when I was there, but they are locals as well.  So, I MUST go back to hear the band play.

Today we went on a 6 hour, yes, 6 hour snorkeling adventure.  There were 15 of us in the group and we paid 550 baht each which is about $18.33 USD!!!!  The trip was great and I am definitely going back.

The island is beautiful and post cards don't begin to describe the beauty, it is a MUST see my friends!!  I am truly blessed to have this amazing opportunity and I am writing this blog to share this with you all!!

Never stop learning,

Charmel

P.S.- I want to post more about Koh Samet, but I am ready to get the pics up!! I will post another post later on about my views.

PLEASE leave comments!! It should allow you all to do it now!!
