By the time we left Koh Phangan and arrived at our hostel in Bangkok, 12 hrs has passed. We took a 1 hr ferry from Koh Phangan to Koh Samui then a ferry to Surat Thani (1.5 hrs(. We took a mini van transfer from the ferry to the airport (1 hr) then waited at the airport for many hours for our flight. If we took a later ferry, we would hav missed our flight.
The plane ride was 1 hr then another 1 hr to get from the aiport to Bangkok. It was a relief that we were checking into a really nice hostel. Think modern warehouse converted into housing.
We went to check out the Patong Street nightmarket then treated ourselves out to a nice Korean BBQ dinner Buffet. Only $ 30.00 total for the both of us with dessert and drinks!
