Koh Chang Day 2

Koh Chang Day 2
7/6/2011

Today we went on a snorkeling trip to four islands to the south of Koh Chang.  There are actually quite a few islands around there, so we could have island-hopped all day.  But we didn't.  :)  The double-decker boat had probably 50+ people on it.  People of all shapes and sizes. :)  And the boat crew even handed out anti-sickness tablets.  Which was good for me because I forgot to take one before I left...

The snorkeling was really great.  Lots of fish and choral.  Pretty much everything you like to see when snorkeling. :)  We also got to go onto the beach in two of the islands, so we took some pictures on the beach.  The best way to describe it is to just upload a bunch of pictures, so here goes...!

Fish!

Plant-thing that opens and closes (and just so happened to be blue and purple!)

Pokey yellow sea urchin-looking thing

Feeding time!

Watch out for the sea urchins!

Really cool-looking coral

I wonder how the coral made that "5"... :)

After the snorkeling trip, we relaxed for a bit and then went out for dinner.  I got cashew chicken that was phenomenal.  The sauce had a slightly sweet, slightly burnt, mostly amazing kind of flavor.  Bridget got a cooked a shrimp dish.  We kind of mixed things up a little bit. :)

Dinner!

After dinner, the sun was setting, so we ran to the beach and got some pictures of the fiery sky.

We decided to leave the next morning and head to Bangkok, so we did some packing before bedtime in preparation of another day of travel tomorrow...
