Day 38, Sunday 26 May - A day of rest and relaxation...

It's amazing what a quiet room and a comfy bed can do, several good hours of sleep and we were all feeling refreshed and ready to take on Patong Beach. Well, that might be a bit of an exaggeration, all feeling great but just going to take the day to get our bearings and plan our strategy for the next couple of weeks.   And, thanks to Groupy, our accommodation was secured for the rock bottom price of NZ$250 per week!

Had toast and spreads in our rooms, and simply chilled out for a couple of hours chatting, doing the blog and not much else.  

Russell is after some eye wear and Brent keen to see about a bike jacket so one of the rare times that the foursome split to follow different paths for a few hours.  Met back up around 3.30 to compare notes and K & R had bumped in to a guy from the UK married to a fabulous Thai cook and they have a bar restaurant just around the corner that puts on a BBQ 3 nights a week with a promise of some delectable vegetarian delights for the girls so that tonight's tea all sorted out.

Looks like the boys have given the cameras the day off today so no photos, you'll just have to imagine how lovely Patong Beach is ..... will try to give you some photos tomorrow!
