Koh Kho Khao (Kho Khao Island): A magnificent surprise beautiful undeveloped island only four small resorts. Soon to be the place to go! Check the link on the update page. Lots of photos at Koh Kho Khao Island
Above: Andaman Princess resort on Koh Kho Khao Geckos!: What can I say I am an early riser. Not open when I was there again about 2:30PM. Obviously open for business but I like to get home after dark. Sorry! I wish they were open as I would like to see if they have deli type sandwiches. Arandara or Multiply - you must let me know! Baan Khao Lak: Up and running photos, restaurant review (excellent Penang Ped [duck]). They have kept their old menu and it is just as good, or even better than, pre-tsunami. Taco Time: Does anyone remember this restaurant on Nang Thong Beach? Now located at Koh Kho Khao great food. See the update page for information about Nan (the owner) and how things have been going for him. See the Koh Kho Khao Island page.
On the drive home - following a truck full of coconuts - a monkey that had, obviously picked those coconuts - keeping guard.
A Final Note What a great trip it was! The area is recovering, growing, optimistic, booming, but also at the same time - worried if you are coming back. Go, enjoy!
