I promised to talk about what I did in Than Sadet, but then I realized that I didn't do anything. When I first was heading out there, I reserved a bungalow for three nights. I figured that was long enough to get a feel for the place without it being so long that I would become crazy if it wasn't nice. It turned out that Than Sadet was exactly the type of place I wanted to be.

Unfortunately, a lot of other people also decided the same thing, so it looked like we were going to have to leave after just three days. However, due to a new bungalow being built and some good fortune, we ended up being able to stay for a week. Even this wasn't long enough, but it was definitely a good start to our vacation.

So, what did we do in Than Sadet that took an entire week? Absolutely nothing. We would wake up in the morning, have breakfast, go for a swim, hang out, eat lunch, go for a swim, hang out, eat dinner, go for a swim...you get the idea. It was pretty much exactly what a vacation should be, pure relaxation. My biggest difficulties were deciding what I wanted to eat and trying to perfect my ratio of swimming time to hammock time. I never quite got it perfected, but there is always next year.

Actually, during this week, I taught Jisun how to swim. She had no experience in the water before, much less the ocean, but she was a good sport and trusted me. Even though I have never taught someone to swim before, she managed to pick it up somehow, and is doing ok. Granted she only had a couple weeks to practice, but she can get around pretty well. Other than that, though, we did just about nothing. So, to make up for the fact that I have nothing to tell here, I will just post a couple more pictures of our island paradise.

Here is my lovely girlfriend and I just hanging out, which is how we spent a good portion of our time. Getting my ebook reader just before this trip was perfect timing, because I spent a good portion of my waking hours just sitting around and reading.



Next we have a candid shot of Jisun going for her first swim. Learning to swim in the ocean is a bit scary, but it all worked out nicely.



And finally, what I know everyone has been waiting for, pictures of our favorite beefcake, namely me. And yes, I am wearing the perfect swim trunks that say 'Vacation!' on them.



What is that? One isn't enough? Oh yeah, here is another action shot!



Wooooo!
