And of course Ko Lanta has sticky rice with mango and coconut sauce!
We had booked a bungalow accommodation for Michele and …
… Racki and I found a pretty nice spot for our tent. With shade, next to the sea, and not too far from Michele’s bungalow.
One day, we rented scooters and went around the island. This was a nice scooter shop for Zuckerwatte.
Racki and I went to the elephant’s sanctuary of Ko Lanta, but didn’t want to pay the pretty high entrance fee. So we watched these majestic creatures from a far.
But still, it was so nice to see them. Every elephant had his own human guardian.
After that we went to a popular small jungle hike …
… to a beautiful waterfall.
Nice and refreshing.
On the way back from the waterfall, we met a gang of monkeys.
Racki trying to become one of the monkey gang.
A huge, beautiful jungle tree.
We had to pay an entrance fee for the first hike and a photo of us with the guard would give us free access for the other famous hike of Ko Lanta.
The second hike south of Ko Lanta was sometimes pretty steep but I liked the first one more.
But there was another nice, big jungle tree on the second hike as well.
With interesting skin.
And a nice beach.
After that beach, we went for another beach for the sunset.
There were real waves and we had a lot of fun and a absolutely nice sunset.
After we came back, there was quite nice electronic party at Michele’s accomodation.
And the next day we spent at the nice natural beach next to our tent, ….
…. did some t-shirt shopping, ….
… and witnessed a very instagrammable proposal at the beach.
During our stay on Ko Lanta, there was a big Thai biker festival with interesting Giger-style motorcycles, predator masks and other funny stuff.
There were a lot of biker chapters with all their individual leather jackets and quite nice Thai rock music.
