Looking through a fish bowl - Phangnga
Looking through a fish bowl

While visiting Thailand,
I must admit that my heart
was still beating for Bali.

With all the traveling around
that we did...
the beauty of Phangnga
is what captured my eye.

Not so easy to get here
or not much of a choice
of where to stay...
but the visuals are
absolutely beautiful.

A Time for Reflection
Reflections - Phangnga

Reflections

The beauty is breathtaking.

Several raised isalands of
eroded limestone
that rise high
from the blue sea.

Some of them reach up to
300 meters tall
and many of them contain
caves hung with stalactites.

All curved out over time,
through all the conditions
that Mother Nature provides.

Inside the Cave - Phangnga

Inside the Cave

I have not returned
since the tsunami,
but this is the bay area
that was touched by this
super natural event.

Peace...enjoy this special place.
