KO PHA NGAN....FULL MOON PARTY

JUST A BRIEF NOTE ON THE EVENTS OF THE FULL MOON PARTY

PRETTY MAD, ABOUT 20 000 PEOPLE PACKED ON A BEACH STRETCHED WITH BARS,FOOD STALLS AND DRINKS STALLS SELLING LARGE BUCKETS WITH SPIRITS AND MIXER VERY CHEAP.
NOT ALOT GOING ON IN THE WAY OF ENTERTAINMENT JUST A LOAD OF RAVE STYLE MUSIC. WE SPEND THE NIGHT DRINKING BUCKETS AND TRYING VARIOUS FOODS FROM THE MANY STALLS.
THE PARTY GOES ON TILL ABOUT 10AM BUT WE HEAD BACK TO THE RESORT IN A TAXI WELL BEFORE THIS AND GET BACK A BOUT 4AM

TO GET BACK TO OUR BUNGALOW WE HAVE TO WALK ALONG THE BEACH.JUST AS WE ARE STAGGERING HOME AN EXTREMELY LARGE COCONUT FALLS FROM A PALM TREE ON THE BEACH ALMOST KNOCKING US OUT. WE DECIDE TO CARRY IT BACK TO OUR BUNGALOW COZ GONNA HAVE IT FOR BREAKFAST THE NEXT DAY !!
THE NEXT MORNING AFTER HAVING DIFFICULTY LIFTING MY HEAD FROM THE PILLOW I REMEMBER THE COCONUT ONLY TO GO OUTSIDE AND DISCOVER ITS GONE ! GUTTED I GO AND SEE BARNEY TO TELL HER WHAT HAPPENED. BARNEY IS GREAT SHE CANT SPEAK HARDLY ANY ENGLISH SHE JUST LAUGHS ALL THE TIME. INSTANTLY FROM SPEAKING TO HER WE COULD TELL SHE HAD STOLEN IT AND HAD IT FOR HER OWN BREAKFAST SHE FOUND IT HILARIOUS BUT PROMISED US SHE WOULD GO UP THE TREE AND GET US ANOTHER

THE NEXT MORNING WE HAD FRESH COCONUT FOR BREAKFAST ON THE BEACH IT WAS GREAT..

IVE ENJOYED STAYING IN KO PHA GHAN BUT READY FOR A MOVE AS THE RESORT IS A BIT TOO QUIET. THE STAFF IN THE BARS WORK A RIDICULOUS 12 HOUR DAT 6 DAYS A WEEK AND ON THEIR DAY OFF GO AND CUT DOWN COCONUTS BUT THERE ALL SO HAPPY AND LOVELY !!
