Paris and the Questions

Well, its over… and I’m happy for that. I’m not saying the trip wasn’t awesome. It was! I’m just happy to be somewhere that I know. Paris was really fun and If I had to live in a city that would be on the top of the list. Now, to answer some of those questions that I know all of you will ask. #1. How was your trip? It was awesome… duh. #2.What was your favorite place? Well, that’s a hard one, but I would say my top three would be Ton Sai, Thailand, Jordan, and France. #3. What was the funnest thing you did? We went to see the play Monty Python in London. It rocked. #4. Would you do a trip like this again? NO, not one exactly like this. #5. Where would you like to go back to? Thailand, Israel, Greece ( I want to go to the Island, Kalymnos for the climbing) Nice, and Paris, France. #6. Where do you want to go next? Spain and Portugal are next on the list. P.S. If you have read this, please don’t ask me the questions that I just answered. 😉

Αθήνα

The city of Athens was amazing. The ruins were so much more than I had expected. I also found three euro pennies so I’m feeling pretty lucky right now.

Mae Hat

We were able to easily hike back and forth between Sai Nuan and Mae Hat, the main town where the pier is, so we did that a few times in our attempt to find better food and change money. We found a Pancake Man whose sign read, “The Best of the Best Pancakes” so they must have been.

Gilligan’s Hideaway

We headed to the west side of the island for our last days on Koh Tao. As we walked along the beach we found ourselves deeper in Gilligan’s camp. This is where we would spend Thanksgiving. You will see from the pictures that they (or maybe I do) have a thing for swings.
