Fire Dancers on the Beach

June 21st. Koh Phangan Island is absolute paradise. It's the kind of place people dream about. I met a backpacker named Jackie, she came here for two weeks and extended it to 6 wks, now she is going back to Australia, selling everything and moving here. I can see what the temptation is. Good food, crystal clear, warm water, white sand beaches, friendly people and tall swaying palms. We swam in the ocean and couldn't believe how hot it was. Hotter than the air. You'd think the fish would fry. We ate dinner on the beach at Haad Yao Villa and watched the sunset while fire dancers performed in front of us. Panang Chicken and Coconut Shakes nothing better than that.
