| The View From Our Patio in Karon Beach, Phuket |

|
| Beautiful Sunsets Every Night. |
| Our Hotel in Karon Beach, Phuket, Thailand |
|
|
| A Best Western Right Across From the Beach. |
After the somewhat heaviness of Cambodia - we were thrilled
to have some down time at the beaches. Suzan was extremely grateful for the running trail around the lagoon - her first run
in five weeks of traveling! Pure Heaven! We also had swimming pools on several levels of our hotel (one right out of our door
which made relaxation time very easy).

| Boards the Boat to Take Us to Coral Island |
We took a power boat from Chalong Bay to our resort (about a 20 minute
THRILL ride). The swells in the sea had our boat slapping against the waves and thrashing to the right and left. So glad to
disembark and the quaint Coral Island Resort (only one on the island) made the trip so worth it.

| Coral Island. It Was Nice Falling Asleep to the Crashing Surf |
When we arrived at our resort, we walked through the sand to an
open air reception area. A young Thai woman greeted us with a ladle and large bucket and poured water over our feet and then
dried them off for us. Another person came out with two pink cocktails and we sat down on comfortable chairs to fill out our
paper work. What a greeting!

|
| Front Bungalow and the Clear Water |
The entire amount of beach here was about 1/8 to 1/4 mile
so we took many beach walks daily. We could snorkel right out of our front door so we spent most of the time in the water
chasing colorful fish and enjoying a multitude of coral reefs (colors and shapes). When I'd look for Jim inevitably I'd
see his feet sticking out of the water - he's one that wants to explore every inch of the area. On land we did have a
small trail (10 minutes max) through a jungle which led to another beach - Jim also enjoyed daily checks for monitor lizards
- Suzan used this trail for running (back and forth, back and forth)!
