Nothing Day

Up about 8:30, took my time getting up. It rained last night and it's still cloudy this morning. Walked to Chalok Baan and had a great American breakfast for way cheaper than what Moondance does. At Moondance, they have cheap bungalows, but try to get you on other things like expensive restaurant and charging more for laundry and stuff. Used the internet, browsed a book store and bought a night boat and bus ticket back to Bangkok for tomorrow night. Boohoo, it's almost over!

Back to the bungalow, Carolina was sunbathing, Fredericko wasn't around. I decided to go snorkeling, Carolina kept looking at me and smiling. She has the hots for me. As I was snorkeling, Carolina grabbed her snorkeling gear and swam out and waved at me under the water. We snorkeled together for a while, I took her over to where I saw a big fish earlier, but couldn't find it. We swam to shore a bit down from the our beach and talked a bit more. I asked her where Fredericko was, she said he was up at the hut reading, he's not a big sun person. Then more snorkeling, she would sometimes swim away from me, then come back to me, presumably because her b/f could see us. Haha. After we finished snorkeling, she went back to her towel, and I stayed in the shallow water a short distance away, soaking it up. It's so warm. She casually meandered over, and kept looking up at their bungalow, then sat down beside me and we talked some more. She's sooo hot, and I told her so.

It was around noonish or 1:00, getting super hot, she decided to get out of the sun for a bit, but we made a snorkeling date for later in the afternoon to go swim around a small point between Moondance and the next bungalow over, as we've seen lots of other people snorkeling around there.

I decided to go rock climbing on some of the huge boulders near our beach, and got up really high, then it started to rain, so had to get down before the rocks became all slippery.

Carolina and Fredericko took off for lunch, and I finished the book I was reading, "The Golden Compass", by Philip Pullman. It's book one of a trilogy. They made a movie of it late last year, and a week or two before the movie came out, the Catholic school board in Calgary announced that they were pulling the whole trilogy from all the schools libraries, because it was anti-Catholic, against the Church and promoting atheism of some such thing. Yet the book is quite old, came out in 1995 and has been in the libraries since then. I saw the movie, and didn't understand what all the fuss was about. However, the book ends quite differently than the movie, and I can now understand why the Catholic church is so upset!!! Very good read. Now, I need to find book two.

The power went out on the island of Koh Tao today. Only places that have generators have power. Moondance is not one of those places. I hope it comes back on soon, not having a fan is gonna suck.

Went to a restaurant, Taraporn, for supper, then browsed a store that sells everything, including books, and found book two of the trilogy, "The Subtle Knife".

Ran into Carolina and Fredericko, they were just sitting down to have a supper, so I joined them and had a beer. Carolina is very non-chalant with me when Fredericko is around, she doesn't give anything away. I then went to Bubaloo Bar for a couple, and when I was there, two girls came up to the bar and one of them ordered a Chang. I made a remark that Chang is bad, and the other girl backed me up on that. Then the bartender started talking about he loves Chang because of the way it makes him feel...drunk and hungover. Haha.

I then back to the bunglows, and still no power. Tonight is gonna suck.
