Hello followers,
Christmas time is approaching, and we're on track to be at the beach on Christmas Day! For now, we're in Khao Sok National Park, enjoying the jungle. We're staying in a lovely tree house at Khao Sok Valley Lodge, and it's owner is one of the nicest people we've met. There are large, well, everything around us! Large bugs, large plants, large Raffleasia flowers (largest flowers in the world). We don't think they are really flowers, though.
We've been super impressed with the kindness of Thai people...giving us rides, cooking us breakfast, flagging down buses as they fly past us, giving us good advice, and making sure we are actually going to the place we intend to go to. It's amazing! Expect for the one old dude that wanted to marry one of us...didn't matter which one as long as one of us agreed. We unfortunately declined.
We're headed to Cha-am Beach tomorrow night, and look forward to calling family and friends on Christmas! After Cha-am, we head to Phetchaburi for a few final days before our departure.
Love you guys!
J & A

Hey Ladies,
I've really enjoyed keeping up with your adventures! Hope you have an amazing ending to your journey. Merry Christmas!!! See you in the new year :)

Great photo of Rafflesia!
The cool thing about the flower is that it looks like rotting flesh, which attracts flies as pollinators. Spider also build webs in the flower to catch the flies.
Have a great Christmas on the beach!
Love,
J.
