Christmas Kung Fu Panda Yo-Yo
We celebrated Christmas 2008 on Koh Whai. The day started with sunrise through the bungalow window and yoga, followed by breakfast of a fresh pineapple and then the exciting part - opening our Christmas stockings on Coral Beach. We each had 5 minutes in in minimart at Khlao Prang, Koh Changwith which to buy each other presents. The old adage about the best-remembered presents being the small ones definitely holds true. We managed to buy each other an assortment of smoked cashew nuts, roast chestnuts, candles, soap, chocolate covered almonds, paper streamers, balloons and a Kung Fu Panda yoyo! We then decoratedour balcony with the streamers and balloons before going swimming and doing some snorkelling. After a lunch of yellow curry and fruit salad we made our own Christmas movie in the afternoon - the sad result being viewable here - http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Ns3MJkdXrBI. It was turning into one of the busiest Christmas's we have had for a long time.
We headed over to the Paradise Restaurant about 6 or 7pm to find a bunch of Germans around one table inside and a bunch of Anglos on a table outside by the surf. We then partied until midnight, drinking Thai Regency brandy and Samthorm rum.
Thank you to the people we shared Christmas with - Dave, Nick, Jan, Claire and Bruce. Spot which one is the Australian!
