he's an idiot, the pics are ok., but a little too much of the same ol same ol

but those thighs are fookin GREAT!

Actually, some really nice shots there, mate. Post em all. I've not been there but am seriously considering it.

They are quite stout aren't they, I'm surprised.

Are not....just the way she is laying and one squashing the other.

Check out the knickers thread for a vertical pin shot....for comparison of course.

Fvckin crap photos nawty, I could do better with my brownie box or should that be the other way around I don't believe yr wife has stout thighs at all and if I were you, and thank Christ I'm not, I would plug JJ in the goolies for saying that.

Thanks for the pictures, I'm always up for the Islands.

Cheers.

Yes, don't you reckon it would pay to have a daily cleanup? It's not as if labour is expensive, and the payback would be more tourists to the clean area. I know it would be a never ending job for some poor bastrad, but a bit of attention to detail is lacking in most of the beachfronts and it really wouldn't take much to turn it around. Bloody hell, the recycled plastics and thongs would probably pay the wages.

Anyway, thanks for the pics NT and I wouldn't be so rude to comment on your wife's thighs even though I thought they were well above acceptable.

Crap Photos?!?! What photos? The man says he ate the best crabs he's ever tasted and when do we see them? When they come out his wife's perfect ass?

Yes, forgot to get photos of crabs.

Little girl was not 100% when we first arrived on the island, but she always looks like that in the morning before she makes herself bewtifull again.

And her thighs are not ferkin fat....sheesh...do I really need to put up another pic of her ?? I am saving that pic for the 'sexy mothers' comp...

Ok second section, part 2, the next bit....

My son and I hiked across the island to a beach we were told was on the other side, very nice, good snorkelling I was told. Only thing was that the manager of the hotel looked at my son and said...oh no...don't think he will make it, to young. The track is throguh the bush, very muddy and wet, walking through water, mosquito's the size of golf balls that will carry him away.

So, we decided to take the sensible, responsible, caring parent approach and say 'fcuk it' and go anyway....

Here is the track, mud, water, mozzies, jungle, steep ascents and descents the other way, 2 mountain ranges traversed and arrival at a deserted beach...









Nobody here, just us and our footprints...



and a few thousand of these little suckers....



We saw about 30 of these Sam Toucans flying about and landing in the trees above us on the wild and wooly adventure trek across the island...





This boat rocked up and guess they are fisher peoples, living nearby as they wandered into the jungle and collected coconuts only and departed ....














This pic was where we went snorkelling on the other side of the island...it reminds me of the American scuba divers on the Great Barrier Reef in Oz several years ago that got left behind by their dive company....look out behind and all you see is ocean and a huge storm approaching



This is how far out from the beach we swam to find a good coral and fish spot and some decent clear water....



Then sometime later, this dive boat rocked up and we 'mingled'...before swimming off to our beach, leaving the tourist hoards to enjoy their mass experience...





More to come....if ya want..

Keep it coming. Great photos. He's a plucky little lad, your son.

Probably need more of the wife as well.

Good on you for exposing the kiddie to a bit of adventure, not enough parents make them get into that stuff. He looks very happy slopping about in the mud and would learn more on that trip than a week at school I reckon.

He likes adventure....think he is a bit like me in that respect.

He wants to learn to dive, so waiting till he turns 8 and then get him started in a pool in Bkk....then the world of adventure will open up.

He also wants to learn to surf after his boogey board success in Malaysia.

If you can see it, in the backpack he is carrying he put a coconut in it that had germinated....he carried it all the way back from the other side of the island himself to keep it. Told him that was how coconuts get from island to island and all over the place and grow.

nice one mate, looks like you had some fun, cant wait to see some more pics of the err..beaches, and ermmm sunsets

i vote yes to both.

I'd never even heard of this island! Nice pics, nothing wrong with a nice thigh shot.

That's brilliant. Well done for giving the kid the encouragement and opportunity.

Ok...some more, the 3rd instalment....3rd bit...

We went to koh hai towards the end of the wet season, so the good was that there were very few tourists around, lotsa storms and I like storms.....so got to take some nice stormy pics, or try at least.

Bad was that the clarity underwater was not that great and a couple of the islands/destinations we wanted to go to were not accessible because of the storms each day.

One place I really wanted to go was the Emerald Cave....if anybody does not know it, it is an island that has an inland beach and lagoon. Only way into it is via a cave on the rugged open ocean side of the island and once inside, the small beach and lagoon has vertical cliffs all around it, pure white sand and the lagoon is a rich turquoise blue colour.

Getting through the cave can only be done at low tide and it is also only really worthwhile going when the sun is shining cos it gives the water in the cave the 'emerald' colour it is named after.

Everyday at the resort, they said not worth going because of the storms and rough weather to get to and through the cave entrance. But on our second last day there, they said we could try, just me, my son and the guide.

So we went, we tried, we conquered.

Pulling up at the cave entrance you are faced with the huge cliff faces coming direct down to the ocean, very clear water below you and obviously rather deep. The actual entrance to the cave is very hard to see, even when right there in front of it.

We entered the water, my son being dragged through by the guide while holding a life vest. The water strength was reasonably strong, rising and falling with each wave and current flowing by. Now the colour of the water at the entrance and exit of the cave is simply brilliant, it just gives you a feeling of floating over a pool filled with fluorescent lighting. Then some metres into the cave around some bends, it goes pitch black for some time, you can smell the bats, feel the water and hear it rising and crashing against the rugged walls. The guide had a small torch and that was it going through the pitch black.

Then it starts to become light, emerald green in fact and the exit is there, again an amazing emerald glow and you exit into this chasm with pure white sand and surrounded by a blue lagoon.

It was extra special experience because the guide said that if you come here in the tourist season, there could be 200 people inside, we were the only ones there. We swam and lazed around for maybe an hour before heading off.

My son loved it, we will go back again and I will get better aquatic pics next time, these turned out blurred with my little waterproof camera, simply because of the waves and current unable to maintain a steady shot.



the entrance from inside the island



boat trip back




Bloken boat trip back...











Now these are not clear, but wanted to include them to show the colour of the water...







When we exited the cave, we were met by the people train, must have been 60 or more people lined up to be towed through....I always like being the ones not joining the hoards....

Posted this pic before, but I really like it, it was just there as a storm approached and we stuck our heads up to see what was going on...















This lion fish was amazing to see, we just passed over a bombey and there it was. I was hoping to see one and there ya go. Most of these, including the nemos and Lion fish were just off the beach of the island, so accessible all day long.
























While the clarity of the shots is not great, they are here to show anyone with kids what you can see just off the beach from Koh Hai, even my 3yo daughter was having a go with goggles and snorkel, sticking her head in and breathing as she should, then pulling her head out, grabbing a breath and straight back in. She was amazed by all the fish and colour.

Well worth it if you are able to do it, best education ever for kids, real life experiences rather than books and school all the time.

I agree totally with Longprong, tooooo many Thai sons are held back from the adventure side of growing up. Words like He might get bitten, wet , cold, lost, scared come to mind. Well done and great shots. TP

My daughter would have come also, but I could not take them both snorkelling out there alone and the trek was thought to be to tough to be able to carry her a lot of the way, she only 3.....but she will for sure be into it, as it is she gets into everything and will have a go....here she is rock climbing in Pattaya...







And its not a tiny wall for pre schoolers ....
