8th December, 2007

Today's weather;

It's a mixed bag this morning, it started out nice and blue, now it's blue with clouds and it looks like some big grey cloud formations are moving in. Current temp st 7 am is 25.9C. I'm not sure if there was rain last night but it is very moist this morning.

Yesterday saw for the first time since three weeks rain again around noon and in the early afternoon, which actually wasn't bad at all, it got rid of all the dust on the road! Unfortunately some of the usual 'problem' roads flooded again due to minor flash floods, but nothing serious.

Sunset Restaurant in Nathon

The Sunset restaurant in Nathon was our stop today.

We visited the children's doctor in Nathon today, since our oldest had a minor problem. The doc is always open between 5 and 7 pm so on the way out of Nathon, we decided to visit the Sunset restaurant, since a few people have recommended it over the years.





The restaurant is located at the end of Nathon when you take the road back to the pier, it's exactly before the curve to your right, which leads onto the ocean 'boulevard'.



The menu is extensive and starts with a varied Thai menu followed by a massive Western menu which seems to be dominated by Italian food, pizza's and pastas.

I ordered a Chicken Kiev and it was nice.

One thing we liked about the place is the extensive garden and seating arrangements. You can sit inside, outside with a roof and completely 'uncovered' outside. It's very spacious so excellent for children to run and play around.


The Thai menu has plenty of fresh on it and outside of the restaurant, to the left, are a couple of water basins with crabs and plenty of other fresh fish in it. Hard to beat in freshness!



This is how the view is during a sunset, amazing indeed and it definitely fits the name.

This won't be the last time that we will visit the Sunset restaurant in Nathon. Thumbs up.

Welcome to December

Welcome to December 2007

This is a month to look forward to, it's not that wet anymore and towards the middle of the month things start to really lift up.
In general December is rather sunny and pleasant and not too hot!

It's also a very busy month for Samui, around Christmas and New year Samui there will be lots of tourists and in general there's a good atmosphere.

Hope you enjoy this coming month as well and that some of the readers of my blog will actually enjoy their time on Samui during this month.

All the best,
Camille
