2010 Thailand Day 3 - Koh Sichang

Hart woke up at 6am and went to play basketball. I slept til 9am. After Hart came back, we had breakfast and checked out.
x Then we went back to the house. Mom and Han were there. Dad was on campus working. I got to see the new puppies, very cute! Hart, Mom, and I left on our road trip. Han stayed at home to over see the workers.
On the high way, some guy tail gated us and started honking. I guessed he wanted us to go faster. But instead of passing us on the fast lane, he had to be a jerk.
Another point on the highway, Hart noticed that the car's heat sensor was high. So we stopped at a gas station. After a few minutes the car was back to normal. And we didn't see anything wrong.
We got back on the road, but instead of taking the highway, we drove on the road under it. This allowed us to stay under the shade most of the way, and the speed limit was a bit slower. We wanted to make sure the car wouldn't over heat. And it was fine the rest of the way.
x When we got to Sriracha, we saw a sign for Sriracha Tiger Zoo. We made a stop and went to check it out. We got to see a tiger show, a crocodile show, and some other animals. There was one place where they had piglets and tiger cubs feeding from the same mama pig.
Around 1pm we decided to go get lunch. While we were driving around searching for a seafood place we saw a sign for Koh Sichang. Apparently it's supposed to be pretty nice, since both Mom and Hart had heard of it. So we changed the plan and went there instead of Koh Larn.
x We had lunch at this small restaurant on the pier. Then we parked the car and took a boat ride over to Koh Sichang.
When we got there, we got on a 3-wheeled taxi and drove around looking for a place to stay. The first place the driver took us too was pretty nice. It was overlooking a cliff. There was a nice area to see the ocean. But we wented to check out other places too.
The second and third places weren't that great. The fourth place was the only hotel next to the only beach on the island. It wasn't too bad. So we stayed here for the night.
After checking in, Mom went to sleep early. Hart and I went down to the diner and got some drinks and somne snacks. We chatted for a bit, then head back up and went to sleep. At 8pm...
