Koh Samui Island, Thailand

After Koh Tao we went to Koh Samui for just a couple of nights - not at all
as beautiful as we were hoping. Koh Tao was much cleaner, less commercial,
less people and far more remote. Koh Samui had lots of large advertising
billboards, the big M, and plenty of plastic bags and other rubbish in the
sea where we swam. Something seems to be changing in Thailand as so many people have said how
nice the people are, but perhaps I must of caught them on an 'off' day,
everyday. We had fun in Thai, but the highlight was definately the diving
and getting my diver certification - I highly recommend it!

And yes, the airport is an attraction in itself! Check out the luggage weighing system in my photo's...
