Pima Air Museum
A day at the Pima Air Museum. The place is very large with four "hangars", plus numerous aircraft lined up outside. Mostly military, but not all. A few versions of Air Force One are there, for example, plus some NASA aircraft.
For an aviation enthusiast this is a must-see.

Diving
Thailand is one of the most wonderful places on earth to do some scuba diving. My UW-camera broke and these pics are taken by my 'diving buddy'. My Finnish friend, JP, has a small diving company in Chalong. He is a Course Director of PADI and his company is specialized in tailor made diving excursions and in small groups. He is very good with kids and older people as well.

Food On Wheels
Chalong was full of this kind of little 'mobile restaurants'; Food-On-Wheels, serving anything from grilled chicken to curries. The kitchen is a side car on a motorbike and the ladies drive around the town, stopping when called or in certain corners, always using a helmet which looks like the one used in WWII. For a couple of dollars you could eat at a delicious meal.

Snorkelling Trip 1(2) Bamboo Island
We made a one-day snorkelling trip to Mosquito and Bamboo Islands. After sharing the long tail boat with a Canadian family we ended up paying less than USD20 per person lunch and snorkelling gear included. I burnt my back during this trip so that it was full of blisters...ouch! Lesson nr 1: wear a t-shirt whilst snorkelling.

New Bungalows
After a couple of nights in Joy Bungalows we changed to this resort. New Bungalows is a smaller complex than Joy and it is nearer to the village - only 15 min. walk. Price per bungalow with own WC/shower per night was less than USD20. Food in the restaurant was excellent. No power in the bungalows, only a few hours in the evening in the restaurant. We liked the 'feeling' in these bungalows. There are a couple of bungalow resorts on the island which provide power for 24 hours e.g. Woodland Lodge (owned by a British-Thai couple), Andaman Beach Resort etc. However, those resorts are quite full of children during school holiday times.

Koh Jum Seafood
This is the best restaurant in the village. Food is excellent, the atmosphere and view unique and service good and friendly. Prices are very reasonable (10 USD = 300 TBH). Food in the bungalow resort restaurants was amazingly good as well and prices as reasonable. In fact, we did not even once eat a bad meal in Thailand.

Baan Koh Jum 1(2)
These two albums, Baan Koh Jum 1 and 2 are from the southern village of Jum Island. It is a tiny village but picturesque and people were very helpful and friendly. The only down side was lack of communication: not many spoke English.

Arrival on Koh Jum, Andaman Beach
We stayed the first two nights in Joy Bungalows. Lovely bungalows, lantern was provided for the night hours when there was no power and the prices were reasonable, between USD25 and USD35 per bungalow per night. The restaurant was very good, particularly the Thai green curry soup with seafood!

Transfer by Long Tail Boats to Koh Jum
The ferry stopped in the middle of the bay and long tail boats came from each bungalow resort to drop off the leaving customers and pick up the new ones.
