Koh Samui, Thailand daily weather update; 18th February, 2011

Today's weather;

Samui is enjoying Makha Bucha day (Buddhist observance commemorating the Buddha's teaching of Ovada Patimokkha) under a near blue sky with a current temp of 26C at 7am.

All official institutions like banks and the like will be closed today and all bars will be closed tonight around Thailand, including Samui.

1,250 monks from all locations and directions, to meet and be ordained by the Buddha, one of the two events that are celebrated during Makha Bucha day.

Yesterday saw a nice and warm day again with plenty of sunshine and blue skies. Max temp reached 29C

Just stayed in at lunch time and read your whole blog with all the little snippets of information. It was amazing, made me want to jump in a plane and go straight to Koh Samui and stay in your cousin's hotel on the beach, in fact I think I will do just that next year when I have paid off my trip to Uganda and Ethiopia where I have just returned from.

Thank you for sharing about your country now and your generosity in doing so.
