Take me to the Beach

Old Man o' the Sea

It was a real wrench to leave our new friends in Phrao, but if we don't leave now, we never will. Next stop is the beach, and because it's the weekend, Sara is happily able to join us (it's a bummer having a job, eh?). Koh Samed's your classic Thai island. White sand, clear water, cheap beer.
Even better, getting there involves a trip on the world's longest bridge (Bang Na Expressway, 60km long), which nobody else seems to get excited about.
