Before heading back to reality, we wanted to get some beach and sun time in Southern Thailand. We chose a place where both of us had never went and that seemed a bit less touristy than other parts of Thailand - we chose Ko Lanta.
After a rather confusing wait for the airport pickup in Krabi, we drove about an hour to our cozy little beach resort, just outside of the small fishing village on the North West side of Ko Lanta island.
Since Ko Lanta is a small fishing village, we spent most of our time relaxing at the resort and strolling along the endless pristine beaches.
You could tell there aren't many tourists in this area because you can still find so many perfect seashells. The girls went crazy and spent hours harvesting all kinds of cute seashells.
There weren't many restaurants open while we were there, but we did find one delicious place to eat Khao Soi, called Bun Noodle.
We also took Charlotte on her first TukTuk ride, to visit the nearby village and night market.
In the fishing village, one of the street stalls that we ate at was called Best Phad Thai in Koh Lanta. While eating, we were visited by 2 giant lizards walking toward us in the nearby ditch. The tourists were the only ones who seemed interested/concerned with this, so we're guessing this must be a rather normal occurrence for the locals 😂.
