Then we hopped in the back of a songthaew (a pickup truck with bench seats in the back) and headed to the port to catch the high speed fairy that goes from Ko Tao to Chumphon (on the mainland).
Wednesday was our last day out on the islands before we had to start making our way back to Bangkok. I got up super early on Wednesday morning to get two more dives in. Here's the parking lot rendezvous spot!
We all piled into the back of the truck and everyone huddled together to try to stay warm. I just have to say, nobody has more fun than Thai people. For seriously. If these photos of a truckload full of wet and shivery happy smiley people who just got finished tubing down a country river for ninety minutes don't make you want to fly to Thailand right now...
...we rounded a corner and our driver pulled over to the side of a the road so that we could check out one of the most breathtaking scenic overlooks I've ever seen!
