March 20-25, 2010 – Koh Chang, Thailand
For the next 6 days we are going to settle into a beach existence. But before we do so we need to take care of one very important matter…
We must buy a hammock.
After all, no self-respecting beach bum can exist without one.
This being achieved, everything else is just details. Here’s a breakdown of our daily routine while on Koh Chang:
- Wake up when we wake up and then chill out before breakfast.
- At 10:00am our breakfast place of choice, the Stone Free bar, opens. It’s time for some fruit, yogurt & muesli.
- After breakfast we return to our hut and prepare for the beach.
- We walk to the beach and spend the next few hours swimming, reading, sitting, sitting, reading, swimming, reading, swimming, sitting and so on and so forth.
- We head home from the beach between 3:00pm-4:00pm.
- While preparing for cocktail hour, we rotate turns lounging in the hammock.
- Cocktail hour starts around 4:30pm over a friendly game of Skip-Bo… on the menu is Gin & Tonics, Scotch and chips, and occasionally there’s also Oreos.
- Dinner happens between 5:30pm-7:00pm, depending on how hungry we are and if we’re meeting friends.
- After dinner we stroll around the town, which isn’t very big, so we end up doing it twice.
- We grab a drink and quickly check the Internet.
- We head back to our hut to read, watch TV or play Skip-Bo.
- Around 10:30pm we fall asleep to the distant sound of bad cover bands until we’re woken up to drunken idiots between 3:00-4:00am.
- It’s back to sleep and then begin the routine again.
It’s a rough life, but somebody’s gotta do it.
