Koh Phangan - 'Bottle Beach'

It was once again time to go back to the beach. We choose to go back to the island where we first started our trip on, Koh Phangan. This time however, Walter and I wanted to check out another beach that wasn't as busy with stores and tourists while we waited for Gabe and Jess to get back from the Phillippenes. We took a 12 hour bus ride from Bangkok, waited another 2 1/2 hours at another location, then took a 3 hour ferry until we finally arrived on Bottle Beach. Much more quiet than any beach or island we've been to, Bottle beach was extremely relaxing and was free of people asking us to buy things and take taxis. We also scored a really cute hut just steps away from the beach for only $9 a night! A really nice change of pace for our last few weeks of vacation.


Every beach and city in Thailand has their own type of dog roaming and lounging around. We'd find them sleeping in the middle of the roads or under our tables while we're eating. Here on Bottle Beach these were the kind of dogs that were running around, little furballs! Totally cute. This one here looks like he's actually posing for the picture when really he was watching the volleyball game going on on the beach and I interrupted him! Well after time well spent on this beach it was time to pack up and get ready for the main party beach where we would soon meet up with Gabe, Jess and eventually Cindy too!
