Third time, this trip we have now settled down on Koh Lanta, as a small holiday in the holiday. It's a little easier to live here, there are many nice beaches, good food in every corner of the street, some shopping and at the end of the high season it feels a bit more quiet than in the peak in January and February.
We live this time at ”Funky Fish” on Long Beach, also it's a grip to suck the last out of our sunny/beach-vacation before heading to Bangkok With all its bizzieness and chaos, which will be the last destination before returning back home to Sweden.
It's almost unhealthy hot and yesterday the thermometer showed 35 degrees, the sweat runs along the arms and legs, but in the almost untidy, I enjoy every moment of it.
There have been a few visits to Old Town, and Sala Dan most of the time we just travel around and, as well, we create small assignments and "tasks", like complementary shopping, new ropes to the hammock at our bungalow or maybe visit a new restaurant. When you have been so lazy as long as we have, even the little things become a day project.
Last night we sat outside our bungalow and planned for the future and the retirement like so many times before .. when we suddenly hear live music from one of the many bars on our little street, we decided in two minutes to pause the planning and get 30 year younger instead of a few hours.
And after five minutes walk we stood on the dance floor on the ”Treehouse”bar and the thought of retirement felt more and more distant. It is nevertheless a wonderful time we live in exept from all misery that happens in the world ...
.. a time that nevertheless allows us to surf around agebarriers, that you can allow your self to be thirty but you're closer to 60, myself i fear for the day I’m so old so people start talking to me, instead of with me .
After generationalsurfing and yesterday's youthrevolt we were today brutally thrown ”back to the future”. It is strange that the bodies and joints that yesterday were smooth as panters and were shaking on the dance floor, but this morning, they could not get out of bed without creak and pain.
So today we take it extra easy, late breakfast..feeding little birds with breadcrumbs outside the bungalow, a little sun, a little swimming and maybe a trip to Sala Dan ... one day like everyone else. Peace and love 🌺☮️❤️
