Day 6; A day off!

Today was my first day off since I got here, I had a lay in until 10.30, which was nice to say the least!

After a 7/11 breakfast I set off to explore the south of the island with 3 of the other volunteers, Anna, julienne and Bianca. We made it all the way to the southern tip of Koh Lanta, stopping at a few beaches a long the way. According to the Lonely Planet books, the beaches in the south of Koh Lanta are 'splendid', maybe we were looking in the wrong places, maybe it's the wrong time of year, but 'splendid' is not a word I would of used!  After the white powery sand and crystal blue waters of Koh Samui and Koh Phangan, the beaches here are nothing to write home, or blog about.

We stopped at a small village and found a place on the beach to eat, they had a pool so after a quick bite to eat we swam for a while.

Later that night a group of us went to a vegerterinan restaurant, Kunda.  Even though I'm not a vegi, I enjoyed the food and the company was good. I'm starting to warm to this place.
