Simon and I rocked up at Rosie’s around
10am. All was well, she’d completed most
of her packing and as ‘check out’ wasn’t till midday, we sat and drank coffee
on the balcony while Simon checked if all flights were running to schedule in
Bangkok. Unfortunately all was good, so
no extended holiday for Rosie.
After checking out, Si rode ahead to the
new Eco office and Rosie and I walked to drop off bags etc, by this time we
were all pretty hungry, so we went to Café Del Sol, to have a delicious ‘divers
breakfast’ (eggs, beans, toast, bacon & coffee.
Remember that we had a manicure/pedicure
the other day..... well Rosie’s nail polish has somehow changed into a foul orange,
pink color so we decided to have one last pampering session ..why not?!! What made it special is the color on
Rosie’s fingers didn’t really come off that well and stained her nails and
fingers, so after a lot of varnish remover and scrubbing, they still looked
pink, so with a smile, the Thai lady just put a layer of clear varnish on and
said “beautiful” hmmm
We both had our toe nails painted but at
one stage or another, we smudged them several times by putting our flip flops
on, stubbing our toes ..the poor Thai
girls were hanging out the shop door trying to repaint etc while Rosie and I were concerned that we needed to confirm
her boat ticket, taxi and collect her case which was being dropped off at the
pier. What a palava but so funny!!
By the time, we’d finally retrieved Rosie’s
case, sorted tickets and organized a taxi from Samui ferry port to the airport, we had about another half
hour to wait until her boat came in.
We waited at the pier for the ferry, said our goodbyes with a few tears shed.... and we wish her a short and safe journey back home. Its been a great time, and so nice to have family here.... its just so sad when they leave.....
