The
place we stayed, Sea Pine Villas, was perfect! Very traditional and had a
wonderful energy! Breakfast was nice with fresh fruit, eggs of your
choice, and coffee. There was a lovely stream running though it with
flowers all around. Cheri enjoyed making images.
We
headed for the airport, cleared security and ran in Marianne and Hans again; one
final goodbye for now.
The
plane was right on schedule!! We landed
and our luggage was first off the plane and the driver was waiting! Yeah – we had a chance to make the flight of
2 million bats!
We
made good time and our guide Ta Ta was waiting for us at the Khoa Yai Cottages
where we would spend the night. We
dropped the luggage, made a pit stop and headed to the bat cave!
As
promised, two million bats made
their way into the darkening evening skies. What a sight to see!! They literally stream out of the cave in
these huge long lines, flowing with the wind currents, making patterns in the
sky. We watched until it was too dark to
see the bats.
Ta
Ta dropped us off at Thai restaurant that was in walking distance of our hotel,
good since we didn’t have a car. The
food was good and cost all of $8 for dinner for two!
We
got back to the hotel and crashed. The
bed was hard as a rock….another less than perfect sleep.
Enjoy!
Cheri & John
