This morning the sun rises blood orange turning the black ocean waves silver and then a tranquil marine blue. This is the view from my yoga mat as I stand in "tree pose" on the beach of Koh Samet island. Koh Samet is located about four hours south of Bangkok in the Gulf of Thailand. An impromtu roadtrip adventure to the beach manifested itself and the results so far have been soft white sand dunes and salty air boundless.
After breakfast with friends at a beach side cafe, we plopped down under an umbrella for the rest of the day to take advantage of Thai "sabai sabai" (take it easy) lifestyle.
Hmmm, should we go for a tumble in the warm bathwaters or wait and watch while the tide slowly brings its waters to us? Perhaps we'll purchase some tropical papaya salad from one of the many vendors that sluff by in a constant meandering drove. Can't pass up the cheap Thai massage: it's given on a towel right next to our umbrella. Don't forget about that old Charles Dickens classic you've been wanting to dive into. Yeah that's the ticket. Some choice reading followed by a promonade down the beach to let our chameleon skin change colors. If the moment feels right, we might even expand our sea shells collection.
