Last Lazy Days

Hello everyone. We have settled in nicely at Sensi Resort on Koh Tao Island in Thailand. As you can imagine, we've been VERY busy. Our days go like this: 7ish wake up, sit on the porch of our cute little bungalow for a bit before heading down the short hill to the beach at our resort where we acquire two of the 8 chairs, drink our coffee and coke, read our books, mosey over to breakfast when we get hungry. Then, back to the chairs, in for a swim or snorkel, back to the chairs to read, back in for a dip. Hunger moves us over the the restaurant right at the beach for some lunch. Back to the chairs to let our food settle before another swim or float on an inter tube. Around 4 is Happy Hour of course and this takes different forms. Even the form of a gin and tonic with peanut butter on crackers on our porch. It was a big deal finding peanut butter in a small shop since it's not been anywhere for the last 5 months. For dinner sometimes we shake it up and go down the beach to dinner but our resort has a wonderful restaurant that plays nice music and you sit right at waters edge, so that's become our favorite. And they have BLT's for lunch, one of Melissa's favorite. We fall asleep around 9ish and then start all over again the next day. It's really rough. Once in awhile we do talk about getting jobs and the realities of going home and we good with it all. We are especially excited to see our family and friends. Internet has it's issues on this island and is expensive so we won't be posting much. We will try to post some pictures soon. Bye for now.

LOL, your busyness makes me feel oh so sorry for you...NOT! LOL

Be honest...Have y'all had ANY arguments while on this journey? You know why I ask? I don't watch much TV, but I like to watch that Amazing Race. Maybe that's why I keep coming back to this blog to read your adventures. LOL Of course, I know the tension level is lower since you're not actually racing with anyone for a grand prize. Oh me...what a comment! LOL
