The forecasts all look very good as well, with sunny skies. Max temp reached 29.3C.It looks at last that we left the rainy season behind us.Camille

Wedding party on Chaweng lake road
2008-03-13 13:08:00
It is wedding season on Samui!This is the second wedding we attend this week with three more coming up within the next week! The stars must be right according to the various Monks.Today was a big wedding, located at Chaweng lake road.This to give you an idea how big the party is, with chairs and tables seemingly stretching forever. This table dressing indicates a fairly well off wedding, with a bottle of Johnnie Walker Red label. A lot of weddings have cheap Thai whiskey, earlier this week there was Thai Brandy and today saw Johnnie Walker Red. Here a view of what was served, some form of Moo Waan (sweet pork, a massive leg!), Plaa Jaamet or Pomfret fish and a salad, later to be completed by fried rice, a soup and mixed vegetables with a sweet sticky rice as dessert. All well organised! Here a view of the tables and eating part of the party in full swing. The place really filled up, we arrived shortly after 5 pm and when we left around 6 pm, there were still plenty of people arrivin...

Spring is here and an update on the local temple
2008-03-09 05:22:00
Spring is here and an update on the local temple, Wat Plai LaemIt's early March and also on Samui, spring roars it's head, unfortunately, not necessarily weather wise but definitely fruit wise. There's a lot of blossoming going on and our garden is no exception, fortunately.One of the fruits that is blossoming in large quantities is a fruit called chompoo or rose apples, the red variation. Here's a picture of the very young fruit. This is how they look when they fully blossomed. We can pick at least a kilo per day or more for over a week already.Unfortunately the mango's or Mamuang in Thai are very rare so far. Here's an update on the progress of the new Bot at Wat Plai Laem, the local temple, around the corner. If I stand on my balcony, I can see the temple.The roof construction is now complete and it's really looking good. There's a few more things to complete at ground level which I'll keep you updated on.This shows the new roof and especially the Cho Fa, the elongated a...

Welcome to March
2008-03-01 03:26:00
Let's welcome March 2008.In general March is a nice month with lot of sunshine and not a lot of rain. The indications are there that this March is making a slightly different start, with possibly some rain towards the end of the week.Samui will most likely be very busy during March, since the Easter holidays are during late March, traditionally a very busy period on the island.I'm looking forward to a nice and warm month, once the first few days are out of the way.Camille

Nang Nual Restaurant, Walking Street, Pattaya
2008-02-18 17:23:00
Nang Nual Restaurant , Walking Street , Pattaya Was our choice of the evening and it proofed to be a good one!They're around since 1965, the very early days of R&R for American soldiers, when Pattaya must've been a sleepy sea side town. They make sure that you know that they're unique! One interesting feature is that they're located in Walking Street, a happening on it's own. The restaurant is at both sides of the road and massive on either side. Nonetheless, the food is good. One of us had this delicious sea food platter for just 450,-Baht!The Seafood Hawaii pictured here, was delicious and settled nicely in my stomach!Good place to eat on Walking Street.Camille

AowThai Restaurant, Ban Don
2008-02-16 09:02:00
AowThai Restaurant , Ban DonAfter not having visited this place for at least a year, we went again yesterday and it was pleasant.Lot's of (local) Thais visiting but also plenty of Westerners. They have a massively big screen, good for sport events, and a live band playing. Make sure to get a table that's not located in front of the band.It's located opposite Bandon Hospital, on the road leading away from the ring road. Behind the Irish pub on the corner. Here's the band in action, they mainly sing Thai love songs or soft Thai music, no rock and Western main stream songs.The food was good, especially their specialty, the sizzling plate, here with mixed seafood.AowThai is very big and has outdoor tables and two big roofed areas as well. It's enjoyable and worthwhile visiting.Camille

Pee Soon Restaurant, Chaweng
2008-02-16 02:18:00
Pee Soon Restaurant , ChawengHas been an all time favourite of my wife and me for the past 7 years that we know each other. My parents are also very fond of this whenever they come over as is my sister and her family and pretty much everybody we ever brought here! Nuff said, one would think!It was a while ago that we've been here last and things have changed a bit. Unfortunately their cook for more than 10 years, who started out as a young boy as kitchen help, has left and that was noticeable. The seafood is still as good as ever but the the 'a la carte' dishes didn't have the same magic anymore as with the former cook! We loved the Pomfret deep fried fish and the other fresh seafood, but the soups and other dishes just didn't have it. They were still good, don't get me wrong but just not up to the same standards as before.Here's a bit of the food we had, bottom left, a green curry (Kaeng Khiao Wan Kai), Garlic Pepper squid (Pla Muek Thot Gratiam Phrik Thai), Deep fried Pomfre...
