1. I woke up one morning and Hannah was doing pilates on the beach. That was roughly 9 days ago. She's been complaining she was sore up until yesterday.
2. For the most part Lonely Planet has been a pretty poor source of information. Many of the time tables are wrong as well as nearly every quoted price in the book. We've also had much more luck finding tastier food on our own compared to their recommendations. However, they did recommend a kick butt place for sunsets -- Amsterdam Bar. Every night on Ko Phanang Hannah and I would drive up this hill to a bar overlooking the west coast of the island. The place not only had a beautiful view of the sunset but also amazing fruit shakes.
3. Hannah is a slob. Yes, a slob. She has the unbelievable ability to dump out her bag all over a room. This is a picture of a hotel we stayed in just for a night before departing the island. Notice my bag in the foreground versus hers in the background.
4. It seems to me that every place Hannah and I go to Bob Marley's voice is pouring out of the speakers. On Ko Phanang there is even a Bob Marley village near Sallad Beach...and about twenty dudes (Thai and foreign) who look like Bob Marley. This is just a general question: at any given moment, how many beach/island resorts/bars around the world are playing Bob Marley at the same exact time? My guess is at least 10,000. On Ko Phanang alone there are probably 75.

It's my fault... I never should have cleaned up after her... but really, she was probably looking for a clean pair of _____.
Ben, If I ever have the pleasure of meeting you, remind me to tell you the story of my meeting Bob Marley and his band in Jamaica back in 1975. I was on a trip with the Jackson 5 and Bob appeared at our hotel one day and invited us to his house........LH in KY
take away one bed and add hardwood floors and that is exactly what my apt looks like when hannah visits! why does she do that? HOW does she do that? and was that pilates mat in there too? Han is like the hobo mary poppins-- instead of carrying lamps and hatracks in a carpetbag, she totes around unbelievably large messes in a backpack.
Ben, don't complain too much..at least the clothes were placed on the bed and not the floor. You're Felix and Hannah is Oscar.
She really is my daughter but Ben you are her brother and she also takes after you.
LH! I need to hear that story! When are you starting your blog!
Dad, I take after mom when it comes to neatness. Hannah is definitely your daughter.
Elena, I sympathize with you. Hannah and I literally checked into a hotel two days ago and within a minute her stuff was everywhere. She turned to me and said, "I don't know how that just happened."
