So, New York City is freakin cold in the winter. And yay – it’s winter now!

I wonder what it is like during wintertime elsewhere. It’s not so cold in Koh Lanta,Thailand, now is it? This beach photo brings me ultimate happiness as the date stamp on it is January 11.

Koh Lanta’s beachy coastline is dotted with fancy hotels and resorts, though there are some pockets of some smaller and less manicured properties, like this one. This beach front open-air restaurant served us lunch after I fell off a motorbike and got an owie. That’s right.
