The weather was great again today, even if the morning looked grey and cloudy. 
By lunchtime the sun was shining, light breeze, small waves. Perfect!

A grey morning, nor rain, a few rays of sun and that's the way it stayed all day.
Boring weather in my opinion!

A wet and windy start that turned unto sunny but windy day. 
Fairly big waves that will apparently get larger tomorrow and Monday

Despite a sunny start to the day, things didn't look so good by late afternoon and I heard reports of 
rain in some regions of Phuket even though Rawai remained dry.

 2nd September 2011 16.00pm 
Low tide and a broken engine. The only way in is on foot!

After a few days of rain the local fishermen are back out to sea.

Rain or Shine


Another crazy weather day! 

From somewhere around 5am the rain started to pour and by 8am it seemed like it was never going to stop! Having closed the restaurant at Bon Island and taken the day off work due to such terrible weather, it was a bit of a shock to find that by 10.30am it was hot and sunny as if there had never been any rain at all. However the puddles and piles of leaves and mud told a different story!
