4,3,2,1



The day that we all regret--the last day of holiday....sweet sorrow. Over the past 12 days, I have experienced four (4) fabulously luxurious resorts, three (3) remote islands, two (2) amazing countries, and one (1) wonderful holiday! (don't forget the three days of travel time as part of the adventure too!) I've tried new foods, learned new words, bought new shoes (ha!) and absorbed culture. (And....I totally put my workout/eating schedule to the side as well--will feel that 5am Monday morning!)

This evening started out with a luge ride. A ski lift--which I find terribly ironic on this island off the coast of an island--took us on a "sky ride" to the top of the mountain where we were fitted with helmets (yes, child size for my peanut sized head). It was fun, but I disagree with the marketing for this attraction "One time isn't enough." One time was well enough!

Dinner and $12 beers were at the Siloso beach bar, Cafe Del Mar. For those of you not familiar (that's you Erik) Cafe del Mar is a music collection by Jose Padilla--straight from Ibiza (I believe?) Chill, lounge music, mixed by the best DJs around the world.....but I digress....Apparently there was a private party tonight, so we were told we had to leave by 9:30. At 9pm a girl came on the stage and started singing with the mixes--she was terrible. I think they purposedly put her up there to sing and clear out the place!

9:40am flight--land at LAX at 1pm. Wishful thinking that the flight will only be 3 hours, 20 minutes. I'd like to forget about the 15 hour time change.

I hope you all enjoyed reading my posts. I enjoyed sharing my experiences and getting all my thoughts down as they happened. If you plan on taking holiday in Western Thailand or Singpore--give me a shout. I'll share more:)

Until my next gallivant...
