The last full day on Ko Samui was a free day with no formal planned activities so the awesome group of ladies I've been hanging out with headed out for shopping for souvenirs and gifts to bring home. We had a late breakfast to let the people that went to the full moon party sleep in. At breakfast they shared their stories and pictures from the party.
The most common form of transportation on Ko Samui is called a rod song taew which is a tiny pick up truck with two benches in the back. Because of the rain they were covered (similar to a jeep with plastic) so the air flow while riding in the back was minimal so we usually chose to ride standing at the back.
We shopped & shopped and had good luck bartering and finding deals. A few of us enjoyed the Indian dinner so much from the night before that we went back for lunch. We rushed to squeeze in one more 2 hour Thai massage before leaving Thailand. We hurried back to the hotel to meet up with the group for our final dinner together.
After dinner our guide Dan led us to the local cabaret show featuring the "lady boys" I described in an earlier post. It was an experience, strange, odd & a little funny. One of those experiences you can say you did but don't really need to do again.
