Lazy Christmas Eve
We awoke to the birds singing and the sun shining. Breakfast was quite a regal affair being seated in chairs the size of sofas, I enjoyed a breakfast of smoked salmon scrambled eggs and bacon. Jjohn gave the salmon a swerve but still ate well, all the breads are made fresh and the home made jams are superb - too much variety here to maintain a trim figure.
We spent a lazy day in the sea and the pool before stopping for afternoon tea and home-made biscuits and delicacies which tasted good but we haven’t got a clue what they contained.
Out to town about 8pm for massive tiger prawns ummmmm and a few beers. The latest way to sell time share is for Thai boys and girls to walk up and down the road with Christmas hats on playing Christmas tunes, tacky but entertaining.
We found a little bar where Ami, the waitress spoke amazing English and told us of a man who could provide us with transport back to Bangkok at a very reasonable price, so we will visit again to make arrangements and share a few more beers.
After having such a relaxing day we felt shattered so headed back to the villa and by 10.30 we were in bed ready for Christmas Day.
Tomorrow, we will be doing little or nothing except soaking up the sun and looking forward to our gala Christmas dinner – we’ll tell you all about it on Boxing Day. Until then, Merry Christmas to everyone – we miss you but not the weather – lots of love and have a good one wherever you are.
