Left early in the morning (9:30) to Rai Lay beach, which required just a water taxi for some 15 minutes. The place at fist looked awful. As is the custom in Thailand, the garbage is simply burned. This induces a perpetual smell of burning, which one could do without. Furthermore, the place where we landed seemed like a place I would not dare go into the water - way too disgusting. Anyway, we got ourselves into a hotel for 800 Baht (25 - 30 USD for all three), and then we met 3 Israeli girls (2 sisters and their cousin - Inbal, Nati, Liron) who claimed there was a much nicer beach. Off we went, and sure enough they knew what they had been talking about. The beach was quite lovely with beautiful massive rocks on the side, which gave the place a rather unique touch.
We spent the whole day at the beach. We also met an Israeli new weds couple (Yoav and Rachel). other than that I tried to break my "hold the breath" record but with no success. It still seems elusive.
In the evening we went for dinner. It was most amusing to have the little sis argue with the old one about where to eat. Frankly,I couldn't care less. I went for an entire fish, which ended up being a bit of a blunder. Food was followed by a session at the pool. Finally, we were all planning to play Yaniv, but that didn't really work due to the incredible attention deficit disorder from which half the people (at least) seem to suffer. I am always amused (and disappointed) to see people that cannot concentrate on one thing for more than 15 seconds..
