Dream Team

After spending the last 5 days in diving school we decided it would be nice to get a little R & R. Understandably the trip as a whole is R & R but we are running around so much there is often little time for just hanging out. Enter Koh Lanta and the Dream Team Resort.







Now this is classy. Fresh flowers on the bed, big infinity pool, and a sea side restaurant that serves, you guessed it, bad spaghetti. We spent three days lying by the pool just reading and relaxing. Most importantly, I was able to catch up on important celebrity news from December 2005 with an Australian tabloid.



It was a very relaxing 3 days and best of all I didn't even have to use the lodging upgrade coupon Michael gave me as a Christmas present. I'm saving that for Bali.



On our way off the island we read in the International Herald Tribune that Koh Lanta had received tsunami alerts for two of the three days of our visit. While absolutely nothing happened on Koh Lanta, Ko Phi Phi, the next island over, had people move to higher ground for 12 hours on one day. It was strange to hear this news after the fact as we had spent much time wondering what it had been like during the tsunami in 2004. Strange.
