The Thai weather hasn't been great as of late it has regularly been raining for several hours a day and at unpredictable times and when its not raining it is usually very overcast. Our only full day in Lanta was the overcast type but this didn't affect our plans for the day. We had read that the best way to explore the island was by motorbike. We got up early and paid our £4 for 24 hour hire of a florescent orange scooter. The whole day was spent zipping around the island looking at the scenery and nature. We would ride until our bums went numb then get off and check out the area then get back on and go again.
In the evening we went to a restaurant that we had seen did a fish barbecue as I fancied trying a whole fish as I'd never had one before and felt this would be the perfect time. I chose the fish I was going to have and it was taken off to be cooked. While we waited the rain started coming down really hard and all of a sudden the power went. As the restaurant was on the beach we could see all the others had lost power too. This was bad news for me as when my whole fish arrived I had to try and figure out how to eat it without getting a mouth full of bones with only the light from a candle. I got there in the end and really enjoyed my red snapper.
