The slothful life--Day 3 Krabi

​The air was less humid and a breeze felt nearly cool this morning as I made my way to breakfast. In fact, I had my coffee outside today with the leaves from the trees occasionally skidding over the table. So nice to be less humid.

​First order of the day after breakfast was writing the blog and posting, since the wifi had made it difficult to load anything yesterday. It’s not easy to blog with weak wifi. Pictures and all take awhile to download. So...two hours later I was ready for the water.

I’d planned a lazy day and knew I wanted to have a chaise near the pool.  The group had earlier strategically placed beach towels on chairs near the pool (thus claiming them for the day) and we leisurely read, jumped into the pool, ordered pina coladas, beers, jumped in the pool...you get the idea. We blissfully behaved as sloths; I closed my eyes and thought to myself how thankful I was to be able to explore and have adventures like this.

​I’ve intentionally kept myself from hearing any news from the world around me. I’m in the world, but not of it--just for now.

Long boats constantly ran back and forth along the coast and I noticed several coming to the resort’s dock and unloading large amounts of supplies--like paper products, etc. It dawned on me that this place needs to have all supplies brought in by boat--all food, housekeeping products--everything. Amazing.

​Some walked into town via the Monkey Trail (I may have to do that tomorrow--get my “steps” in for the day). During the most intense heat of the day many took to their rooms for naps. We could see the resort setting up for a surf/turf buffet for the evening.

​The entire wedding group sat together on the veranda outside the main dining area and enjoyed the buffet. The staff had set things up nicely for us, and we tried all the delicacies of the area. It was stifling, and we drank more water than alcohol, I think--a first for this group.

​Later the ladies and gents separated, and the gals showered Tak with a few fun gifts. A mini-bachelorette party complete with more wine, cheeses, and fruit!
