Thai One On - Day 6

  • Same breakfast in "garage restaurant" but this time tried orange shake and passion fruit shake.
  • Rode tuk-tuk to airport for Nok Air flight south to Phuket. Served complimentary snack of large chocolate-filled pretzels on plane. Tickets priced about $15 each -- what a bargain!
  • Wandered around market near hotel and tried durian, aka "poop fruit" because of its unbelievably strong and putrid smell (we weren't fond of the taste either! Ick!) Gave most of it to grateful local.  
  • Checked out cool Chinese temple near market and hostel.

  • Dined at Natural Restaurant set in a tree a la Swiss Family Robinson -- very unique and cool! Feasted on stir-fried catfish with chili sauce, grilled cockles and blue crab stir-fried in curry powder sauce, washed down by lemon grass punch -- all so flavorful and wonderful!
