Ko Chang

We arrived in Ko Chang to less than perfect weather. The skies were very grey and the sea was not tropical blue (apparently looked like Cornwall to some British girls). We spent three days checking out the island. Tried to go swimming but the the currents were very dangerous (many have recently drowned) so we didn't get much past our knees. On our last day we did the elephant tour which was lots of fun. We didn't expect to be swimming with them so that was a nice surprise (it would be even nicer if they trained the elephants not to shit in the water though). The weather also prevented us from seeing the smaller islands around Ko Chang which was the main reason we came here so that was too bad.  Our overall experience here was not that great but I'm sure it would be nicer at a different season.
