Samui

Samui Departure hall :D


Huh.... EFT.. Koh Samui... Nice....
Well... I went to Koh Samui 2 weeks ago. Stayed there for a week. 15th till the 22nd of June. Great place. I learned a lot there and am really happy I took up my mom's offer to learn EFT.

Well we went on a Berjaya Air plane taking off fom the old Subang airport. If you never heard of it before it's understandable. I never knew the Berjaya Group that made Time's Square has an airline :D They fly to islands hehe. Islands in Malaysia where they have resorts like Redang... and Koh Samui. Don't know which other places they go to, just read Redang in their in-plane brochure. Ah we flew on a de Havilland Canada DHC-7 series 110, a dash 7 for short. A small plane and quite slow. I know why they use it tho, did a search on it. It can take off and land on short runways. That explains the weirdness I felt on both counts... Anyways there were only 113 made up to 1988 then they stopped producing it. Wonder where Berjaya Air found these antiques....

This pic is in Samui...

First thing I noticed there in Samui was the complete lack of a terminal. At least a terminal that I can see. It was actually there but further away from the track and it's made completely of wood! No walls hehe.

Was lovely the stay there. The place is okay, not too full of people. No swimming though... High tide comes at night and low tide makes for a very shallow walk till you get to the rim where you just drop off :D :D :D

All in all a very nice trip.. Wish I'm more rajin in typing this... Decided to cut short halfway....
