After a rest day on Samui we all woke up with a spring in our step. We made it to the ferry at Nathon with plenty of time. The only eventful bit about the morning ride was the 26% gradient on one of the hills. You can see in the photo that the road disappears. The ride on the ferry was smooth. We all get a kick out of riding the bikes onto the large ferry with the cars and motorbikes.  

We then had to cycle another 22km to our hotel. We flew.  We all have our mojo back after the pork. Our accommodation is gorgeous.  It is called Donsak Orchid Resort.  It’s a bit more expensive than we usually pay but it was the only place that we could find in the area.  The resort grows Orchids and has the most beautiful gardens. The boys had a good time on the huge swing before heading to the river to get muddy. Muddy photos can be found on Patrick’s post.
