Today, Pete and I rented a motorbike with our new friends and explored the island. The island is tiny, so it is easy to get around. We went to the West Coast and were pleasantly surprised to find a beautiful bay surrounded by trees and fluttering with butterflies. It is said that there are butterflies the size of birds here. We didn’t see any of those, but we did see hundreds of brightly colored ones flying among the trees. We swam for a while and then had some lunch. I had seafood noodles. The mussels were very tasty, as well as the prawns.
We then rode around a little more before heading back to our beach. The afternoon slowly went by to us reading and napping on the beach. For dinner, another meal on the beach and then early to bed.
By the last day in Koh Samet, we were so relaxed that it was difficult to accomplish anything. We did walk into “town” and get some postcards and filled them out on the beach. Other than that, another day of reading and napping and Peter making art in the sand. We are off to Cambodia next to meet up with a New York friend and see Angkor Wat.
