Elephant Ride and More Shopping. Fri, 8 Jun

We woke up the same time this morning despite the pick up time for the elephant ride was 10am.

Had our breakfast in hotel again...it's free mah........ It was the same menu...less than 15 items to pick from........hahaha

We explored the hotel and the beach in front of our hotel before the pick up to elephant ride.

At the far side of the beach was a monkey "gathering place"...lots of monkeys.

There was a steep path at the beach, which I believe will lead to Railey beach....but we gave up trying cos the steps are too steep for Nathan to climb.

Just the few of the monkeys and the steep climb

The tour guy came on time again....and off he went for a long journey to the elephant camp.....

The elephant ride was not that fantastic...maybe we had better ride in Koh Samui years back. But it was a great experience for Nathan......hmm...he siad he sat on one when he was a baby..... ( later we remember had ride on one when he was like 3 or 4 years old in Bintan)

The whole excursion was like 2 hrs and we were back to Aonang by 1pm. We decided to have McDonald for lunch since Nathan has craving for it.....hahaha. It was a cheap lunch...like less than SGD10 for the 3 of us........on our walk back to hotel we tried some street food....




After lunch, Yvonne proceeded for her manicure after lunch, and I had a massage in the room while Nathan watch CN again.........

It was swimming time, after all those relaxing moments.... we swam at the hotel pool....

We decided before dinner to visit the hotel ES & Denise stayed the last time, so we took a tuk tuk there......nice hotel, but not near to the beach. Than it was followed by shopping and shopping again (envy or not Denise.....). Later we sat down and have ice cream before dinner.......lol

Nathan after all the ice-cream wanted to go to the beach and play..........


The dinner place was beautiful.....outdoor dinning with beautiful sunset..........

End our thrid day with more CN and HBO...........
