Koh Samui – Miscellaneous pictures

As usual, I will end my Koh Samui entry with a few miscellaneous pictures. Enjoy 😀

Road safety is not a high priority in Koh Samui. Most motorists do not wear a helmet.

On a songthaew (truck-based vehicle with a pair of bench seats in the back, one on either side). Can fall off anytime.

Hello Kitty motorcycle!

With Doraemon mat!

Inside a convenient store. Got dog sleeping here. -_-

Intellectual Property here doesn’t seem to be protected well. 7 Express that looks like, 7 Eleven, also can…

Bitagen! Left bottle looks like..

Vitagen Bottle.

And right bottle looks like Yakult’s!

Woah..bird nest..

Si beh hot ah kua! reminds me of Bimbobum!!!

Koh Samui – Dr Frogs @ Chaweng Noi

We were told that there is nothing nice to eat in Koh Samui. Hen, who stayed in Chaweng, didn’t find any place that was tasty enough worth mentioning. In fact, he went to couple of bad restaurants.

However, Dr. Frogs was one of the places we had dinner and it was quite good. It is located next to Lad Koh View Point and it faces the sea. They claimed that they serves Italian cuisine with a full Thai menu. They also boosted to have the best pizza in town.

The interior of Dr. Frogs is mainly wood and the atmosphere was indeed very nice. The draw back of this place is the price. A single meal could costs up to RM80.

Since they boosted that they were voted to have the best pizza, we ordered their seafood marinara pizza. I also ordered a plate of carbonara. The dishes took a while to come but the wait was well worth it.

The pizza was fking awesome! It came with a thin crust and also big and fresh scallops . I wish I could remember how it tasted like but at the time I wrote this entry, I forgot how it tasted like. FML!!

Nevertheless, if you are in Koh Samui and have some money to spare, try out Dr Frogs @ Chaweng Noi.

Koh Samui – Ang Thong National Marine Park – Koh Kua Talap

Ok, back to my Ang Thong National Marine Park, Koh Samui entries! This would also be my last entry on Ang Thong National Marine Park.

Koh Kua Talap was our last destination for the day. In Koh Kua Talap, we may choose to hang around the beach, explore a cave or hike up a hill which overlooks the entire island and its surroundings.

We opted for the hike up the hill. The hike up was fairly easy. Further, there were ropes to help us climb the hill. The hike is about half an hour upwards. It is highly recommended that shoes are worn during the hike. But I saw some guai lous going bare foot notwithstanding that there were red ants and spiky rocks everywhere.

At the entrance to the trails!
