We had a leisurely morning. It was a nice sunny day but, as the morning progressed, it got cloudy. After making plans for tomorrow we headed down to the beach where we got the water taxi to Cathedral Cove.

While waiting for the taxi we saw quite a few jelly fish in the water. Cathedral Cove is a limestone rock arch. It was beautiful but there were a lot of people. Here are some pictures.

After exploring the area and taking pictures we started the hike back to Hehai Beach. It was a nice, hour long,walk on undulating hills. Here are a few pictures from the walk.

We arrived back t the van, had some lunch and then relaxed for a while. Eventually we mustered our energy and walked into town. There’s not much of a town but we found some ice cream. They make real fruit ice cream by putting 2 scoops of ice cream along with the fruit of your choice in a machine which blends it and it comes out like soft serve. Rick enjoyed it, I got chocolate.

Once back at the campground, I took my chair to the beach and read my book by the water. It was lovely. That evening we enjoyed talking to our new neighbors, a young couple from Finland. A nice relaxing day.
