My friends Lee and Sachi continue their trip around the world odyssey. It’s been pretty fascinating to read their reports from the road, which have been consistent and full of great photos. Here’s an amusing bit on the ferry trip from Ko Lanta to Bangkok:
7:58AM: Arrive at boat, both whacked with motion sickness, sweating and feeling green. Banana shaped boat departs into moderate swells and a cloud of diesel exhaust.
8:35AM: Thanks to the heat and exhaust fumes, Sachi promptly tosses breakfast out the starboard side window and returns to seat, refreshed.
9:15AM: Arrive in Ko Phi Phi, switch to larger, air conditioned boat. Lee contemplates the adventures of his right flip-flop after a mix up last night that resulted in a mismatched pair of footwear.
They’re troopers. It sounds like they had a pretty tough time with illness through India and Sri Lanka.
