2910-3310 (Ranong)
Posted by Stuart at 04:31 PM on October 22, 2003We spent the morning walking on the beach in front of our bungalow "resort". As the tide went out, sandbars between the small islands appeared. We hung out on the beach as long as possible before getting back into the car and on to the road again.
According to the Loneley Planet, Ranong is Thailand's least poplulated province, being made up mostly of mountains on the border with Myanmar. So that means that the road was very hilly and curvy. Unfortunately it was also raining most of the way from Krabi to Ranong.
But it was all ok, because we were staying at a hotel in Rayong that had a spa fed by a nearby hot spring. The spa was basically a huge 40-person jacuzzi with very hot water. It looked brand new, and was very well designed. Our room is not quite as nice, but that's ok, we'll go to sleep tonight looking forward to sitting in the spa again in the morning.
