First day of December and the weather is getting better. After breakfast I went for a walk along the beach.
Then we decided to go to a fish spa nearby and get the dead skin eaten off our feet. We had done this before in Phuket and it is a very weird feeling!
Went for a manicure and pedicure which I had never done before. We had a massage most days.
This is the little shrine in the hotel grounds...
That night more Thai food and then back to our favourite bar in town. Did some exploring and found some more bars. Didn't try this one though...
The next morning I woke early and saw a beautiful sunrise...
Had breakfast and then some beach time.
We had arranged a cooking class today and the van picked us up to take us to a local market.
She had allowed each of the seven of us to order three dishes which we would cook and then eat.
I started with a Tom Kah chicken...
Although she gave us a printed recipe for each dish, we didn't use that. Instead she gave us the ingredients and told us the quantities...

The next day I went for a walk. I had seen a temple on a hill overlooking the airport that I wanted to walk to. It wasn't far away. That's looking down on the runway...
It's our last night so we walked up the beach and sat at a beach bar...
Here come the kids...
We had a drink then walked into town for a final dinner.
The next day we had breakfast and ordered a Bolt to the Airport. Check in took ages as there were six of us all on different tickets even though we were taking the same flights to Sydney. Finally go the bus to the plane and boarded...
We got to Bangkok and had to check in again for the next leg. That was easy and headed to the Emirates First Class Lounge for a shower and change. Then boarded the flight to Sydney. I was in business but the family were in economy :-) It's a Qantas / Finnair code share flight.
Leaving Bangkok at 6pm...
