Koh Miang was a different story; the sun was out
and the colour in the water was just stunning. On the first day we anchored
close to a rocky island, where we snorkeled from the boat in beautiful clear
water. We have been so spoiled with colourful coral in Indonesia, that we find
the snorkeling here not so interesting. Plenty of colourful fish though. We also
went ashore and took a walk up the hill to the view point, where we were
rewarded with stunning views. On day two we moved to the other side of the
channel and went snorkeling again. This was much better and we saw a turtle as
well. The best thing about this place is that we have a mobile phone signal, so
we are in contact with our children again and get photos of Lanah, our grand
child. We have to move south now to check-in at Ao Chalong and get some
supplies. Many important things, like mayo, are running out; we are
even reduced to eating cheese out of a tin!! So holiday over back to the real
world.
