Khao Sok Las Orquideas Resort







After an eight hour train ride, we made it. I enjoyed the train and was glad I brought my own food. It was nice to see the country side. I took videos of the progression of the ride also known as jump cuts. When we arrived at the train station we still had an hour and a half to go by car. We rented a taxi and make it quickly. The hotel/bungalows is very nice. It is owned by a Spanish man named Francisco. We woke up this Christmas morning or I should say afternoon to an excellent breakfast and amazing surrounding. Orchids, tall limestone mountains, paradise! We are now off to a tour of the jungle on elephant back. I will post more later. Merry Christmas everyone!

Francisco that wrote this did mean to say that he did not like us here. Lost in translation! Darn translators. He is from Barcelona and tried to translate that he likes us at his resort. If you ever get a chance to stay here, you should! The best breakfast in town and the friendliest service. Thanks Francisco!
