Happy New Year! We enjoyed a New Year's eve celebration unlike any other - cocktails at the resort, a huge dinner of European and Thai food (a menu misprint, Chicken Gordon Bleu, was priceless), raffle giveaways, Thai dancing and fireworks.
Earlier in the day we lounged around the resort (which will likely be the primary activity over the next week), walked to the only market nearby (a roadside stand run by a large family), saw the largest spider I've ever seen in the wild (I'll have to get a picture) and caught sight of a school of leaping silverfish (at first I thought it was the singha beer as it appeared a mirage - they looked like silver ornaments moving in a wave across the surface of the water - there must have been hundreds just larger than anchovies, it was spectacular).
Anyway, miss all of you & hope you have a wonderful new year!
