This is our final day here. We will go on to Krabi tomorrow by boat. Then on to less populated beaches. Kata is fun but totally set up for the rich jet-set fromnorther Europe. Krabi, being tougher to get to ought to be a little less franchised and a little less crowded. From Krabi we can go to Hat Railay. It should look something like the redoubt used by Scaramanga in one of the Bond movies.
We are having a great time. Today we will hang out by the pool and figure out what the next week will look like. Kata Country house is actually a pretty sweet set-up ($25/night). And there is a 7-11 next door (useful for when Kris wants Pringles at 10 PM). We sat in bed last night watching Talladega nights and eating miniature pringles.
We wnt for a walk on the beach this morning. It was low tide. Unfortunately a lot of trash had washed up on the beach. I guess the last thought in this community is how to deal with trash, which I think washes in alonf the streams from the inland hills where the less affluent live.
PS Kris' hair has never been so frizzy!
