There is not a great deal to say about the last leg of our trip. We stayed for 5 nights over Christmas at the Nimmanoradee resort on the island of Koh Samet. The resort was 50-50 thai:westerners and was at the very tip of the island.

We spent our days hanging out in hammocks and deckchairs, reading and catching some sun
We walked to the other side of the island a few times to watch the sun set and feed the mosquitoes, watching out for the tree dwelling chickens on the way

and Christmas dessert
we did leave the resort one day to go on a snorkelling trip, and were relieved that we had chosen where we were, despite its so-so restaurant and not very good breakfast, as it appeared that the rest of the island was overdeveloped with package holiday european tourists baking together on a not very large beach
lovely beaches

| only way on and off is by speedboat |
Back in Bangkok we went to the Bangla mall and IKEA (sad sad people), and enjoyed all the trappings of the material world before our return to Dhaka.
