After already the last breakfast on Thai soil, once again in the hotel room I packed up the last things in my suitcase before we checked out. Outside the taxi, which we ordered yesterday in advance was already waiting. After about an hour driving we arrived at the airport where we dropped the luggage, passed the security check and continued to the gate. About 45 minutes later we could board the airplane, and then it was 11 hours and 45 minutes flying to Schiphol Airport.
Today was already the last day in Thailand unfortunately... This morning we had breakfast in the hotel room once again. After that we wanted to go to Dusit Palace Park and Suan Phakkad Palace Park. We walked out of the hotel onto the streets to take a taxi which can take us there. But upon arrival it turned out both are closed, double down on luck... And the day had just started! All and all we were in the taxi for more than an hour for about 15 euro, how 'expensive'!
This morning my dad brought us some breakfast from the 7-Eleven, so we ate it at the table in our room. After breakfast, we would be picked up by a taxi booked in advance who would bring us to the floating market. It is approximately a 1.5 hour drive from Bangkok. This (overpriced joke) was quite funny to experience it, with the old ladies rowing their boats and selling their trades or preparing meals. This tour (with a long tail boat) takes about one hour.
Today we left the last location before going back to Bangkok already. After getting up early (we would supposed to be picked up between 6:30 and 6:40 AM by a minivan) I had to pack up the last things in the suitcase which wasn't that easy. After finally completing this we were waiting at the reception for our transport. When that finally arrived we drove back to the ferry (after picking up some more people at other lodges on the way).
For today there's actually not much on the program, except relaxing. With a good breakfast on the stomach we went snorkeling and the gods were with us today. During snorkeling we saw a lot of beautiful fish, big and small. Including moon fish and horn pike. But also crabs and a hermit crab.
Today we had to get up early again, because we are supposed to be picked up at 8:00 AM by a minivan to go to our next destination: Koh Lanta! The day started with a quick breakfast, so we could board the minivan on time, the minivan also picked up other people from other lodges, and then we drove for about two hours to a central place.
The last few days I stayed at a remote place, that's why I wasn't able to publish a post. But in this update you'll read all about the last three days!
Today we had to get up real early, because between 6:30 and 7:00 AM we would be picked up to go to the elephant sanctuary. On our way we stopped a few times to pick up other people at other guest houses. After driving for a short while we stopped at a gas station for coffee and tea. After that we continued our way for 1.5 hours to the sanctuary.
