After nearly three weeks of good times, our dear friends Mike and Sarah have gone back home to Ottawa, to snow, winter, and cold. They left behind sunny beaches, clear water, and two travelers with no bridge partners.
After our visit to Cambodia and the Temples of Angkor, we headed back through Bangkok and then south towards the fabled islands of Thailand. We packed a ton of traveling into the first part of Mike and Sarah’s visit, including an overnight bus ride from Bangkok to the ferry at Chumphon. It was time to find a beach and relax. Our destination: Koh Tao, also known as Turtle Island. We were looking for blue water and white beaches, and we found them in a big way. We arrived on the island early in the morning and checked in to Freedom Beach Resort on Chalok Bay, where we rented bungalows on the hills above the beach. Then what did we do? Breakfast and bridge. It would become a theme.
