First Adventure: Koh Samet

I have officially moved to Bangkok, Thailand.  My fiancee Soojeong took a job here in March and after my contract ended in Korea, I headed out here to start our new life together.  Our first trip together in Thailand was to the island of Koh Samet.  It was a 3 1/2 hour bus ride to the pier where we caught a boat, and then another 30 minutes to our weekend retreat.  The water was nice, the food was delicious, and the beaches were beautiful.  We swam, snorkeled, and sat in chairs next to the water as we drank and ate fried bananas by candle light.  It was a great way to shed off the stress of teaching children for a year.
