We definetely do agree that it's a place to chill out and relax. The reason behind this is that, in actual fact, there is nothing to do on these islands apart from swinging in a hammock, reading books, and swimming in the river. Now, don't get us wrong, it's great to be able to do that, but since we have been travelling (and especially now that we are writing this after having experienced Cambodia) we have seen much nicer places.
One thing was definetely great here....the sunsets. Some pictures which we will be sharing with you are simply amazing.
We spent one night in Khong Island, which is the biggest island of all. We find great accomodation in a teak guesthouse and spend some relaxing time with some of the other guests who had just come from Don Dhet and suggested we go to Mr.B's bungalows, which we did the following day.
The bungalow we had was great! Although it only consisted of a small room with two beds and a mosquito net, their location was the best in the island. The best location for sunset, one of the best restaurants, and we also had a landing where we could go down and swim directly into the river...and the hammock were just infront of the river...
So the days went by, lazing off in our hammocks, reading books and swimming. We met some nice guys here, amongst them an English guy, an ozzie guy and Papa Chief, who has been travelling the world for thirty five years now.....he claims to be Indian...
Our plans to go back to Bangkok due to Janet's vaccinations changed as Yakof managed to find out that she could take her vaccinations in Cambodia!
So the next country we were going to visit was the Kingdom of Cambodia.
