When in Thailand, you must buy Elephant Pants. Comfy, lightweight, and found everywhere! It’s a little harder to find kid sizes, but we were successful at larger markets. And you can’t beat the price… the equivalent of about $5 US....
After leaving Khao Sok National Park we drove out into the countryside through coconut farms to find Ban Nam Sak (Village Water Clear). We had no idea what to expect, all we knew is that Iris told us there was beautiful water to swim in. Turns out...
Superman was the one who found out about Khao Sok National Park by watching YouTube videos about the best places to visit in Thailand. Cheow Lan Lake looked absolutely amazing and we figured we couldn’t pass up the once-in-a-lifetime chance to...

Another breakfast at the Sunshine Center then 45 minutes in the back of the truck. This time the driver avoided the huge bump in the road that made us all fly yesterday. We got right to work where we left off – NixiRay painted a panel of fence...
