 30th
of July, Ko Tao
We decided to walk to Ban Mae Hat, the "main town"
on Ko Tao. All the guidebooks I read about Ko Tao wrote
that it's less touristiy then Ko Pha Nang and more beautiful.
Unfortunately those books are not longer "up to date".
Ban Mae Hat is not longer a "one street town" it start's
to look like a little Thong Sala. You find diving-shops,
bars and restaurants all over the island. After dinner
we decided to walk north along the beach of Ban Mae
Hat.
 31st
of July, Ko Pha Ngan
My second visit on the "Party Island". Martin and
I decided to stay up in the north of the Island at a bungalow
village I discovered during my first stay. The northern
part of Ko Pha Nang is still a quiet and peaceful place,
you don't have the mass tourism there and the local people
and tourists are more like a little "community". The place
we stayed is next to Bottle Bay, but still reachable by
car and called "Coral Bay".
1st of August, Worst Case Scenario
The day started usual, the sun was shining and we
planed how to spend the day. We wanted to hike up the
highest mountain on Ko Pha Nang, which was supposed
to be a great experience. Unfortunately the car driver
took us to Thong Sa La instead of dropping us of at
the entrance of the hiking trail. Planes changed, like
many times before, so we decided to do some shopping
and get money from the ATM-Machine. We thought that
we would hike up the mountain just a bit later.

8th
of July Stopover in Bangkok
We
where already back on the way to the taxi, when I suddenly
had this "feeling" that something was wrong. I checked
my stuff and discovered that my "VIP Bag" was missing.
OH OH credit card, passport, flight tickets, almost everything
of importance to me (and also the passport of my friend)
was in that bag. First we checked all the shops we went
before, even started to look in the garbage cans. Someone
must have had stolen it.
