How about the prices, AO?
Can you still get a bungalow on th beach for 150 baht? Is the little rickety bridge across to the the Reggie Bar still there?
This still looks pretty nice; nicer than I thought it'd look.
I went back a few years ago, the taxi stopped in the middle where those few bars and the green mango used to be, now looked like Bangkok, so I told the driver to continue on to lamai...The beech looks smaller, more built up, but not bad.
