Day 14: Phuket to Ko Samui

-We woke up for a 6:45am last buffet breakfast, checked out and left the hotel by 7:30am.

-We were a little early to the airport so lounged around before flying to Ko Samui in a tiny little plane.

-Once we landed we took a mini-bus from the airport and got dropped off at the wrong hotel. We were a little disappointed because once we realized we couldn't drink the delicious mango juice that they had given us. Luckily they were super nice and called the bus company to take us to the correct hotel.

-We finally got to our hotel. It's not nearly as nice as the one in Phuket but it's perfect for what we need. There's a small pool and some chairs by the beach.

-Ate some delicious Indian food for lunch and took a brief afternoon nap before finally heading out to  the beach to catch some last minute sun rays. Our hotel is on the wrong side of the island to see the sunset but it was still gorgeous.

-We walked along the beach to find somewhere for dinner and then walked on further to the Arc Bar. The Arc Bar is a big backpacker hangout. We got a drink and were accosted by a monkey. This guy was trying to make us pay for a picture with his monkey and decided to try convince us by just dumping the poor monkey on us. We didn't buy the picture.
