Lonley Beach


So we have been on an Island named Khao Chang for the past week. It has been back and forth for me. I love it every night around sunset, and then sometimes I hate it. Like when I get bamboo'd that might not make since to anyone other than Cole and Chang boot. So I have been staying on a stilted little Thai hut. Its on the water, literally when the tide rises every night the water rushes up and can be kind of scary if it rough at all. So referring to being bamboo'd has to do with my boy Chang Boot aka Shang Hi. He had a rough look on his face after waking up at or around 1:30pm. I asked him what was a matter. He told me there was this piece of bamboo that had been smashing against the legs of his hut all night, keeping him up. I totally knew what he was talking about and had seen the large piece of bamboo earlier that day. I too had rocks randomly hitting the legs of my hut, totally scaring the living shit out of me. So it turns out there was some kind of ropes and or fishing net attached to it making it impossible for him to free it. So he went out there boots and all with his belt attempting to attach it to the hut somehow. He said it worked for a bit but the belt failed and it kept him up all fucking night. Man he looked like shit.


So back to that last night I got bambooed by multiple pieces along with my neighbors hut as well. We are attached by a bridge so we can here all the bangs back and forth. This is after I have been a sleep for hours. Somewhere around 3:30 am. I am out there half nekked with my led light trying to locate the culprit. It took me a while to locate them, and I couldnt figure out how the fuck my neighbors was sleeping through this. It turns out he wasnt even in there. He came home to find me searching the premise with a led. He was a Little freaked out and kind of thought I was a nut case. So I pulled out all the pieces I could find, Tried to go back to bed and then it started again. Oh man I was fucking pissed. I get dressed and come outside to find my NZ neighbor with a head lamp on treading trough the surge pulling all kinds of shit out of the water. We had a little bonding moment. It was kind of awesome. but I couldn't sleep after that whole ordeal. It was one of the times I hated Khao Chang.


But the place was cheap. We were nestled in a nice quiet area with rooms around $6.50 a night. Food was cheap as hell and super tasty. We ended up missing our ferry out of there and staying another 2 two nights. We had a blast and a crazy drunken buck nekked swim while it was raining and burnouts were dancing to the half moon party. Nuts and super fun.


Were back in Bangkok now we are gonna spend St. Patty's here and drink some Guinness and get fucked up. We are then parting ways with our buddy Chang Boot. He is gonna head north towards Chang Mai and were gonna head south and do some more island hopping. Not bad not bad at all.... Alrighty have a good st pats you drunken turkey's I will be back on the blog soon enough my friends... till then. keep it real
