After my adventures up north I flew back to Bangkok and met up with a few of the ITP crew. We packed ourselves into a ten person mini-bus, put on some old school tunes and set out on a 5 hour drive toward Trat.
We took a speed boat to Koh Mak, an island off Koh Samet that's very close to Cambodia. We were part of a big destination wedding party that looked like a Benetton ad being shot on location in paradise. The people in attendance were beautiful--multi-ethnic, multi-lingual, fascinating professionals and creative folk--all having a ball being part of this wonderful celebration of this couple. Even for people who don't believe in marriage & weddings this was one to look at in awe.The best bits included: snorkeling, hanging out on the beach, the great food from the grill, and our 2-hour Thai massages. The not so great bits: sand fleas, sea urchins, salt water in your eyes, a nasty long ass not-so-glam ferry ride back. Overall: absolutely the best NYE holiday ever! I know where I wanna be next year.
