In 1967, tousle-haired Doors frontman and self proclaimed "Lizard King", Jim Morrison had a hit with a less-than-jolly singalong called "The End".
And in a freakish coincidence, this is the end of our trip, AND we saw a huge monitor lizard today. (Cannot confirm if it was royalty, however it wasn't wearing a crown.....)
Far out man.......
Priced out of our favourite last stop, Ao Nang (curse of the high season), we've spent the last few days in its quieter, uglier neighbour, Aonam Mao.
In its favour is that it's cheaper than Ao Nang. On the downside, there's only one decent bar, on the beach, and home to eye-wateringly expensive beer.....
There's a longtail taxi service though, so you can at least escape during the day.....
Thanks for sticking with us on this trip. (I realise it hasn't been easy)
Rest assured, we'll be back soon...
(Unless there's a pie at the airport tomorrow!)
