We finished work on the 27th of Feb, moved out of our house, put our stuff into storage and are preparing to say a somewhat sad goodbye to The Comfortable Life, and a rather nervous hello to The World.
Instead of wondering this: We're thinking this:What will the traffic be like this morning? / What will 80% humidity be like?Which parking bay? / Which malaria tablets?What time is that meeting? / How will we keep the time?How many kids do I need to put up with today? / How many t-shirts can I fit in my bag?When can I go get lunch? / When will I get used to wearing khaki?Woolies caesar salad or woolies couscous salad? / Hiking boots or off-road trainers?Mmmmm that Urban dress..... / Mmmm that gortex rain jacket....How will I fit all this in my day? / How will I fit all this in my bag????
The next day we started our best experience so far for both of us; we caught a longtail boat to Bottle Beach which is a small, quiet beach on the north of Ko Phag Nan, and only accessible by boat and found a beachfront bungalow 41 steps from the sea! First thing we did (besides diving into the turquoise sea) was buy a hammock and string it up right on our front patio. The next 3 days went something like this: Wake up, swim, lie in hammock reading, swim, hammock, swim hammock..........such bliss! We had finally found our spot o' paradise and it was rather hard to leave...
