For those who don't know, we're on Koh Samui at the moment... it's an island in the Gulf of Siam - I assume :o
Wind isn't up to much - it's the off-season... but the relaxation is top-notch!
I gotta give a shout-out to my man Buzzinasia for hooking us up with his villa - it's #@%$#!ING AWESOME!!!

OMG it's SO nice! Little fenced in compound, nice and private and peaceful.
Feeling hot? Rip yer clothes off and jump in the pool - nobody can see your bobbing white buttocks!
Big ol' comfy bed - no more wife pushing me off the side!
Cooking facilities, fridge and water cooling - cheap living on local food!
WiFi and LAN unlimited access!
Close to healthy spa (you should see the missus trying to do yoga big LOLs) and assorted yummy restaurants.
Even a carpark... all in a secure area!
We even got an army of geckos to eat bugs and a one-legged cricket I keep having to rescue from the pool
If you get the chance - you gotta try this!

looks like paradise to me! Have fun!

That looks sweeet!
Kamikuza - 10-8-2012 at 07:50 PM
No spam! I just wanted to share my joy
From today though, we're off to slum it in a regular hotel but hopefully we can
spend our last 2 or 3 nights here too.
Not going to Hua Hin... on the island the whole time. Doing as little as possible
Kamikuza - 13-8-2012 at 10:58 PM
Moved into a cheaper hotel - $25 a night - but it's the opposite side of the island from the spots Buzz showed me.
Yesterday, the wind was blowing good and I was about to load up the car and head off when I thought that I should have a look at the beach the hotel
is connected too.
Well whaddya know, best bloody beach I've seen and it's cross-on! ni-iiice!

An awesome session last night, at a new location... knee-deep water (yikes!) but butter-flat and thermal driven wind that is super-clean.
Kamikuza - 19-8-2012 at 08:06 AM
All good things must come to an end... we spent our last 2 nights back in the villa (luxury!) and am packing now.
The score...
Epic sessions - 2
Gravy sessions - 2
Crappy sessions - 2
Skunked - 2 (ie. set up the kite or tried to ride)
Broken spreader bar - 1
Narrowly missing being killed by a mega-squall - 1
Ripping the D-ring off the new harness after boosting a huge jump then getting unhooked on landing in the squall - 1
Gear I didn't need to take - 3 (13m kite, small board and small board bag)
Elephant boobies - 4
#@%$#!s'n'giggles - 1,001
For the "off" season for kiting here, it was pretty good! And I feel relaxed and refreshed... now, back to the daily grind

Elephant boobiies?
Kami did you get one of those weird surgeries that are only offered in the Orient?
Kamikuza - 19-8-2012 at 07:21 PM
No, elephants have boobies like weird, people boobies :o I thought they'd have udder like cows or something... anyway, got to hang out with 2
elephants and their calves for a half hour or so... neat!
