1. Narrow water caves so claustrophobic you have to lay flat down in your sea canoe (I’m a human hot dog!)to get through.
2. Stunning little coves and lagoons with blue blue water directly on the other side of these caves.
3. Drifting quietly in the water on your boat until you spot the monkeys scampering on the tall rocks surrounding the lagoons.
4. Seeing (& smelling) hundreds of insect bats hanging upside down, all sound asleep, inside one of the caves as you float through.
5. Learning how to make a krathong–see last entry–and setting it afloat in the water of the bat cave. (I have no excuse not to continue this yearly tradition now!)
6. Seeing bioluminescent plankton for the first time. Like fireflies trapped in the water.
7. Sitting on the starlit boat deck and talking to my hubby during the trip back to shore. About this trip, about the year to come.
All is well with the world….
Night night!
