Koh Phayam – invited to attend dinner

JJ has invited us to join dinner with him. He mentioned that he bought a Tuna which has arrived a couple of hours ago. Question to us was : do you like sashimi? Answer: yes. Result:

I have to admit that i have not eaten such a fresh fish. Unbelievable tasty 😋 Accompanied with a spicy wasabi and soy sauce. so great. And when it was over we said thank you and tried to leave the table. JJ has said before it is just the appetizer and no one of us believed it. Wrong. It was an appetizer….

Followed by a whole fried fish (no bones!!) , jelly fish marinated) which is really good, chicken Hongkong style (means a cold dish ), and a very aromatic Tom Yum Gung soup. Wow. And finally, when we tried very hard to finish the table (without success ) a huge plate of mango slices and sticky rice was served . The desert. No way. White flag above our heads, we said Khop-Khun-Mah-Khrap and rolled out into the night. Someone made the suggestion to visit the Hippy Bar at the end of the beach. So we did a walk for digesting the food. Later one it seems that Mandy is not untalented in Yenga game 😊 What an outstanding evening….

Koh Phayam – temple event

The small temple at the island is still operated by monks. JJ invited us to participate with him and his staff. Event is for happiness and joy A lot of people showed up and the small temple looked really overcrowded. Our task was to make the money tree growing

people step by and donated money for Buddha . And got blessed by us afterwards. It seems we had a farang bonus. and so a lot of people were happy to donate and take a picture with us. A lot of food was served. JJ decided to offer Pad Thai to the crowd.

Later on the honor was on us to hand over the money to the monks. We were the only foreigners among all the local devotes. Kind of special feeling and some mighty. If I got an orange dress, they would feed me on the streets every morning.

What a crazy day .
