well, our speed boat to koh mak got delayed due to rain and rough waters in the ocean.
so, here we are two day slater at bang bao, the little fishing viallge i previously mentioned. it is lovely and quiet. we have a delightful sea hut, which is a hut that stands on some cement piers right in the water. our view is unblevable and the room is cozy! jamie LOVES the mosquito net "nest" as he calls it! (the net goes all around the bed and tucks in under the mattress, kind of like a see-through tent.) but we have these french doors that open up so we can sit inside and have the fresh ocean breeze even if it is pouring down rain.
we woke up last night to some roaring wind, the thatch roof does not meet all the way to the walls, and it was loud! we woke up, commented on the storm, and were fast asleep right again!
we just got some thai massage with lots and lots fo coconut oil. the women were very funny, laughing at my tattoo, and laughing at jamie when he was tickled. it was very nice. no happy ending, however!!
tomorrow weather permitting we hope to be on our way to koh mak. wish u sluck, as we are getting a bit bored here at bang nao. i've finished my book, and am starting on one i've already read. argh. jamie is reading "the perfect storm" and is enjoying it.
not much else to repot.
love to all
jo and jamie

Wow! Bang Bao sounds cool, literally. Your experiences of places and things sounds diverse and very enjoyable. Keep up your blog; we're enjoying the vicarious experences with you. Later, HR
A book? Jamie? I know its about storms but come on! Must be a picture book.
Sounds like you are having a great time. If you like I'll see if I can google a better massage parlor for you. Just let me know. ;)
hey jammie and Jo. Glad to hear things are going well. A guy in my office was on Koh Chang last year fora week. HEa said it was great. Quiet and off the tourist path.
love ya

Get a haircut or just a shampoo once you get to a place where there's a barber shop or beautician. Along with it comes a whole scalp & shoulders massage that feels as great as getting your feet massaged. Love from Y.M.
You gonna bring home lots of coconut oil...wink, wink?
Love you!
